The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has revealed that the winners from last year’s acting categories, including Adrien Brody, Mikey Madison, Kieran Culkin, and Zoe Saldaña, will serve as presenters at the upcoming 98th Academy Awards. The event is scheduled for March 15 and will be under the hosting of Conan O’Brien. The live broadcast will air on ABC at 7 pm Eastern/4 pm Pacific time.
Adrien Brody clinched his second best actor Oscar in the previous year for his role in “The Brutalist”, while Saldaña, Madison, and Culkin celebrated their debut Oscar wins. It is customary for the previous year’s acting champions to hand out awards in the acting categories.
This year, the film “Sinners” has made a mark with 16 nominations, setting a new record for the highest number of nominations received by a single movie. The nominees for the best actress category include Jessie Buckley for “Hamnet”, Rose Byrne for “If I Had Legs I’d Kick You”, Renate Reinsve for “Sentimental Value”, Emma Stone for “Bugonia”, and Kate Hudson for “Song Sung Blue”.
