The Oscars add Mark Hamill and nine more stars as presenters
By Mia Johnson
The Oscars released its second round of announcers for the 2018 Oscars, including Gal Gadot, Mark Hamill and Lin-Manuel Miranda.
With the 90th Academy Awards less than two weeks away, producers Michael De Luca and Jennifer Todd announced 10 more presenters for the upcoming awards show.
Three more stars from the Oscar-nominated film Star Wars: The Last Jedi will make their way to the stage along with Laura Dern, who was announced as a presenter last week. This includes the legendary Mark Hamill, Oscar Isaac and break-out star Kelly Marie Tran.
Wonder Woman lead Gal Gadot is also among the presenters, even though the high-grossing film was unbelievably snubbed this Oscars season. Whatever award Gadot is presenting, we’ll just pretend she won it instead.
Fans of The Greatest Showman will be happy to see Zendaya presenting this year. And Jane the Virgin’s Gina Rodriguez, who voiced a character in the Oscar-nominated film Ferdinand, will also take the stage.
Lin-Manuel Miranda will also find his way from Broadway to the Oscars stage. Miranda was nominated for the Moana original song “How Far I’ll Go” in 2016 , but lost to Sam Smith’s “Writing’s on the Wall.”
Call Me By Your Name favorite Armie Hammer was announced on the list. He’ll probably be great moral support for co-star Timothée Chalamet, who’s up for Best Actor.
Lastly, veteran actors Wes Studi and Eva Marie Saint will present on awards night. Studi shared his excitement on Twitter, announcing that he’ll be presenting alongside Laura Dern.
“Together, these artists represent some of the most beloved movies of our generation,” said De Luca and Todd in the announcement. “It’s an honor to welcome them to the 90th Oscars stage.”
