Oscars 2022: CODA wins Best Film, Will Smith Best Actor, Jessica Chastain Best Actress

The 94th Academy Awards was held on March 27 at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles, United States, and was hosted by three women — Regina Hall, Amy Schumer, and Wanda Sykes. 

This was the first time in the history of Oscars the ceremony was hosted by women. While Hall is known for her comic roles in movies, Sykes and Schumer are stand-up comedians and actresses.

However, this year's Oscars will most probably be remembered for Will Smith slapping comedian Chris Rock for joking about his wife Jada Pinkett Smith. While the moment shocked the audience and viewers, Smith later apologised to the Academy.

The Academy also held a moment of silence for the people of Ukraine.
