More Oscar news, this time involving Mila Kunis and Amy Adams! According to official Oscar press releases, the “Black Swan” and “The Fighter” actresses will present statuettes at the 83rd Academy Awards.
The announcements of the two actresses as Oscar presenters continues the trend of Oscar nominees or winners as presenters. “Black Swan” is nominated this year for Best Picture and some feel that Kunis should have been nominated in the Best Supporting Actress category for her role in the movie. Adams is nominated for Best Supporting Actress for her role in “The Fighter”, film that features yet another snub–Ben Affleck for Best Director.
As previously reported, the awards show will feature a lot of bright, young stars such as Justin Timberlake, Russell Brand, Jennifer Hudson, etc., as well as seasoned Oscar attendees such as Cate Blanchett, Nicole Kidman, and Annette Bening.
The Oscars will also feature digital, projected sets instead of traditional sets. Whether or not this will be a fantastic spectacle remains to be seen, but the producers are highly enthused about the new set design.
The 83rd Academy Awards, hosted by Anne Hathaway and Best Actor nominee James Franco (“127 Hours”), will air on ABC this Sunday, Feburary 27, 8 p.m. EST/5 p.m. PST.
