Comedian Patton Oswalt will host the evening's program. Red carpet begins at 3pm, and the televised show begins at 5pm.

Duran commented, "Art Carney is the gold standard. We're so humbled to honor these actors in his name, forever enshrining them in a character actor ‘hall of fame.' This is the only production in all of Hollywood to do so. These amazing men and women deserve to be recognized."
