Netflix dominates AFI Awards with eight honorees including Bridgerton, The Crown, Da 5 Bloods, and Mank
AFI announced the top 10 films and top 10 TV shows of the 2020 AFI Awards on Monday, and the virtual benediction premieres February 26 on YouTube.com/AFI and AFI.com.
‘For 20 years, AFI AWARDS has been a moment to gather artists in one room with a singular goal – to create community over competition,’ AFI President & CEO Bob Gazzale said in a statement on the website.
‘This year we cannot gather but will instead celebrate each honoree by creating exclusive content to be shared with a global audience through AFI Movie Club, shining a proper light on excellence.’
