This week, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announced the first round of presenters to take the stage at this year’s Oscars.
While more presenters are expected to be announced in the coming weeks, the stars named on Thursday include Oscar-winning A Star Is Born performer Lady Gaga, The Batman star Zoë Kravitz, two-time Oscar winner Kevin Costner, Fearless Oscar nominee Rosie Perez, past Oscars host Chris Rock, and reigning Best Supporting Actress winner Yuh-Jung Youn (Minari).
“Movies inspire us, entertain us and unite us across the globe,” said Oscars producer Will Packer in a statement regarding this first round of presenters. “That’s the precise goal of the show this year, and we’re thrilled to welcome the first of a stellar lineup joining the Oscars stage to help us celebrate the power of film and honor the year’s best in filmmaking.”
