Demi Moore, Javier Bardem, Chris Evans, Chase Infiniti, Maya Rudolph and Kumail Nanjiani are the latest batch of presenters set to take the stage at the 2026 Oscars.
Infiniti stars in One Battle After Another, which has the second most nominations this year with 13 and has been winning numerous awards at predecessor ceremonies this season. Infiniti was unfortunately (and unexpectedly) left out of this year’s best actress nominees. But her presenter role means she’ll be taking the stage regardless of how One Battle fares on Oscar night.
Similarly, Moore is presenting a year after she lost the best actress Oscar a number of pundits had predicted she’d win for her role in The Substance, which was up for five awards last year. Last year’s best actress winner Mikey Madison (Anora) was previously announced as a presenter alongside her fellow 2025 acting winners: Adrien Brody (best actor), Kieran Culkin (best supporting actor) and Zoe Saldaña (best supporting actress).
Executive producer and showrunner Raj Kapoor and executive producer Katy Mullan announced the latest batch of presenters on Thursday.
The 2026 Oscars, hosted by Conan O’Brien for the second year in a row, are set to air live on ABC and Hulu from the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on Sunday, March 15, starting at 4 p.m. PT.
Sinners leads this year’s Oscar nominations with a record-breaking 16 nods.
It was previously announced that only two of this year’s best original song nominees — “Golden” from KPop Demon Hunters and “I Lied to You” from Sinners — will be performed live at the awards ceremony.
