Oscars telecast adds Jane Fonda, Dave Chappelle, Lupita Nyong'o as presenters

LOS ANGELES _ Oscars producers keep lining up the talent for the 90th Academy Awards on Sunday, announcing another star-studded round of presenters that includes numerous past winners and nominees.

Producers have booked Emily Blunt, Sandra Bullock, Dave Chappelle, Eugenio Derbez, Ansel Elgort, Jane Fonda, Jodie Foster, Eiza Gonzalez, Ashley Judd, Nicole Kidman, Matthew McConaughey, Helen Mirren, Rita Moreno, Lupita Nyong'o and Christopher Walken to present at the ceremony.

"These actors have embodied some of the most heroic, aspirational and indelible characters ever brought to the screen," producers Michael De Luca and Jennifer Todd said in a statement Tuesday. "In so doing, they've not only entertained the world, but illuminated the full range of the human experience."

The actors join a roster that already included Mahershala Ali, Chadwick Boseman, Viola Davis, Laura Dern, Gal Gadot, Jennifer Garner, Greta Gerwig, Tiffany Haddish, Armie Hammer, Mark Hamill, Tom Holland, Oscar Isaac, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Kumail Nanjiani, Margot Robbie, Gina Rodriguez, Eva Marie Saint, Emma Stone, Wes Studi, Kelly Marie Tran, Daniela Vega and Zendaya.

Slated to perform this year's Oscar-nominated songs are Mary J. Blige, Keala Settle, Sufjan Stevens, Common and Andra Day, and Natalia LaFourcade, Miguel and Gael Garcia Bernal.

The 90th Academy Awards will air live on ABC on Sunday, and Jimmy Kimmel will host the telecast for the second year in a row.
