The 2012 MTV Movie Awards celebrate movies, music

Known by many as one of the most outrageous and distinctive televised award shows, the show will feature its trademark individuality and irreverence. Fusing the network's musical core with the wonder, scale and energy of the movie-going experience, the show is set to provide laughs, surprises and one-of-a-kind moments as Hollywood's biggest stars gathering to honour fan-favourites from the past year and beyond.

The show will be available to a potential viewing audience of more than 1.2 billion people via MTV's global network of more than 60 channels reaching nearly 600 million households around the world as well as through syndication. In addition, its convergent programming and content will reach the entire interactive community, via MTV's more than 200 digital media properties around the world.

Jesse Ignjatovic of Den of Thieves, and who has served as executive producer for the MTV Video Music Awards for the past five years, will act as executive producer for the 2012 MTV Movie Awards.
