According to The Hollywood Reporter, the list of this year's winners will be announced on December 16. Officially, the reason for the revision of the schedule has not been explained, but, most likely, the organizers intend to allow their electors to watch the movie "Star Wars: Episode 7 - The Force Awakens", which will world premiere in Los Angeles on December 14, 2015. A gala reception in honor of the laureates of the award will take place, as previously planned, on January 8, 2016. It should be noted that only American movies and television series are included in the list of laureates of the American Film Institute.
