The uncertainty surrounding the broadcast of the 2025 Oscars ceremony on free-to-air TV in Brazil has been a hot topic on the UOL website. With Globo traditionally being the broadcaster for the event, negotiations are still ongoing despite the rights in Latin America belonging to Warner Bros. Discovery, currently airing the ceremony on TNT and the Max streaming service.
Even though Disney, holding the global rights, has licensed the broadcast to Warner, the rights for free-to-air TV remain available for negotiation. Both Globo and Disney are open to the possibility of striking a deal, especially with the movie “Ainda Estou Aqui” and actress Fernanda Torres being nominated, potentially boosting Brazilian audience interest.
One of the significant hurdles for Globo is the Oscars coinciding with the Carnival festivities, which could impact both viewership and the network’s programming. Additionally, declining viewership in recent years and the high cost of rights are factors influencing the negotiations.
The outcome of these talks could shape how Brazilian audiences will experience the prestigious Oscars event in 2025. Stay tuned for updates on whether Globo secures the broadcast rights and how this might impact the viewing experience for Brazilian viewers.
