Details of the 2015 MTV Movie Awards revealed
Details of this year's MTV Movie Awards have been revealed.
The show will include new awards such as "best shirtless performance" and a retro stage with a giant dancing popcorn box.
This year's ceremony will be hosted by comedienne Amy Schumer, and according to Jesse Ignjatovic, Co-Executive Producer of the MTV Movie Awards, Schumer will bring something different to the show.
"She's bringing her own flavor into this in terms of how she's hosting, the things that she is doing within the show, the short films that she's created, which are brilliant. And just sort of her tone and her interaction with this room and in this environment. We think that that makes it feel much different than what we've done in the years past."
The show will give audiences an exclusive sneak preview of the upcoming "Pitch Perfect 2," as well as a first look at "Marvel's Avengers: Age of Ultron."
The 2015 MTV Movie Awards will broadcast on Sunday 12.
