"(CNN) — Actor Richard Dreyfuss is not a fan of the Academy Awards’ new diversity guidelines.
Officials announced in 2020 that beginning in 2024, movies must meet certain criteria for representation to be eligible for the Academy Award for best picture.
Films have to meet at least two of four benchmarks, which cover – among other things – whether the lead actors are from underrepresented groups or if at least 30% of the cast and crew come from these groups.
Dreyfuss told Margaret Hoover during an interview Friday on the PBS series “Firing Line” that such rules “make me vomit.”"
