The awards show will see gender-neutral categories, a concept that has been running for three years with Emma Watson accepting the first genderless award back in 2017.
The MTV Movie and TV Awards was called off last year due to COVID-19, it is now set to be back and better than ever taking place on May 16th.
Leading the way with this year’s nominations is the popular Disney+ series WandaVision with five nominations, closely followed by the Netflix series Emily In Paris which has received four nominations.
