Amid the controversy surrounding the 2016 Oscars, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences released the names of announcers for this year's award show. The presenters for the February 28th show reflect a more diverse bunch than the nominees themselves. Producers David Hill and Reginald Huldin said in a statement: "Each of these artists brings a wonderfully distinctive element to the Oscars stage...Together they represent the many thrilling ways stories can be shared about the human experience, and we're honored they will be part of the celebration."
