The audition stages - which have been filmed across the UK - will feature in the latest series. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, filming has been temporarily paused in the entertainment industry. There will be a gap on Britain's Got Talent between the pre-recorded auditions and the live shows.
A statement from ITV added: "We are also working with our production colleagues to see how we can make the BGT live shows work in an ever-changing situation and we will update on this in due course."
ITV has released a fun-filled trailer for the new series, which reunites judges Simon Cowell, David Walliams, Alesha Dixon and Amanda Holden, along with presenters Ant and Dec and a whole load of Golden Buzzer glitter tape.
You can officially start getting excited because Britain's Got Talent is BACK!
