Stephen King announced he will not be voting on this year’s Oscar nominations and thinks they should be canceled altogether

After the 97th Academy Awards delayed nominations and extended voting amid the wildfires, Stephen King said the event should be canceled altogether.

Stephen King is not interested in submitting a ballot for this year’s Academy Awards and called for the whole event to be canceled amidst the ongoing devastation of the Los Angeles wildfires. On Blue Sky, King wrote, “Not voting in the Oscars this year. IMHO they should cancel them. No glitz with Los Angeles on fire.”
