For the past three months, @thisisinsider's entertainment team has been digging into Hollywood after 2020, the worst year for the industry in four decades. We spoke with actors, directors, showrunners, award shows and even fans about where we go from here. https://www.insider.com/hollywood-is-dying-pandemic-2021-1
. @KirstenAcuna spoke with experts on if there will ever be a billion-dollar movie at the box office ever again. Right now, the answer is no. https://www.insider.com/is-billion-dollar-box-office-movie-dead-2021-1
. @livsingh95 spoke with longtime Marvel fans about what it felt like not to have their fix (a new MCU film) for the first time in 11 years. Turns out, it wasn't so bad. https://www.insider.com/no-new-marvel-cinematic-universe-movies-2020-fan-reactions-interviews-2021-1
. @JasonGuerrasio turned his attention to actors and what happens when nothing (we mean, nothing!) is filming. One "one-line actor" is ready to give up. https://www.insider.com/what-is-one-line-actor-hollywood-2021-1
The pandemic wasn't the only thing to shake up Hollywood in 2020; there was also a racial reckoning. What will that mean for @TheAcademy, who's been trying to be more inclusive? Right now, not much. Most Oscars still go to white men, @SarkisianJacob found. https://www.insider.com/oscars-diversity-problem-race-gender-numbers-academy-awards-2021-2
. @MichaelB4Jordan told Insider's @ZacharyNtim that for Black creatives to remain at the table "you have to control your own destiny. You have to create. You have to own things." https://www.insider.com/hollywood-diversity-whats-next-black-executives-2021-1
And the colorism problem isn't unique to Black creatives. "White and mestizo and light-skinned Latinx are always the ones who are rising to the top tier and we have to…question it," #Gentefied cocreator @lindayvette told @libbytorres95. https://www.insider.com/latinx-hollywood-colorism-movies-tv-shows-2020-12
What happens when the #Disney magic fades and all you see are problems steeped in racism, misogyny and capitalism? Well, it happened to @kimrrenfro. She explains her untethering to the very thing she loved as a child. https://www.insider.com/disneyland-racism-capitalism-essay-2021-1
Stand-up comedians "had it rough" in 2020, @nbcsnl's
Pete Davidson told Insider's @crwillen. She investigated how some comedians are trying to crack smiles through the trauma. https://www.insider.com/stand-up-comedy-suffered-pandemic-2021-1

After every awards show suffered their lowest ratings ever in 2020, can the #Grammys 
actually be interesting this year? @callieahlgrim thinks forgoing glam and instead creating "intimate" vibes may be the show's way forward. https://www.insider.com/grammys-analysis-pandemic-intimate-ceremony-2021-1
