The MTV Movie and TV Awards is taking a break this year. The annual event will instead return in 2025 with a fresh, 'reimagined' format.A source told The Hollywood Reporter that the awards show is set for a comeback next year after a creative overhaul.
Last year's event was impacted by the Writers Guild of America strikes, leading to host Drew Barrymore withdrawing her participation in support of the writers.Instead of the usual live ceremony, the 2023 edition featured pre-taped segments, acceptance speeches, and highlights from the nominated shows and movies, with voiceovers announcing the categories, nominees, and winners.
Barrymore expressed her solidarity with the striking writers at the time, stating: "I have listened to the writers, and in order to truly respect them, I will pivot from hosting the MTV Movie and TV Awards live in solidarity with the strike. "Everything we celebrate and honour about movies and television is born out of their creation", as reported by Wales Online.
