The producers of the last three Academy Awards telecasts will not be back for next year's Oscars.

Craig Zadan and Neil Meron have announced they will not be returning to take charge of the big show, after fulfilling the terms of a secret contract they signed when the duo first accepted the job.

Announcing the news, Academy president Cheryl Boone Isaacs said, "Craig and Neil have been wonderful creative partners over the last three years, contributing some of the most innovative and memorable Oscar moments. They are true showmen with enormous talent and expertise. We’re looking forward to seeing the exciting projects they have in the works."

During their three-year terms, Zadan and Meron recruited hosts Seth MacFarlane, Ellen DeGeneres and Neil Patrick Harris.
