The Academy's deal with ABC to televise the Oscar show, which was not due to expire for another three years, has been extended through 2020, the Academy and the Disney/ABC Television Group announced on Thursday.
Negotiations to extend the contract began early in the year, Academy executive director Bruce Davis told TheWrap in January. "Normally we wouldn't begin for at least another year," he said at the time, "but this time around we want to get a head start."
