Jennifer Lawrence and Jodie Foster Replace Casey Affleck as Best Actress Presenters at Sunday's OSCARS

Breaking with the tradition of the previous year's winner for Best Actor announcing the Best Actress category at the Oscars, the powers that be behind THE ACADEMY AWARDS have decided to make a change in this year's announcer lineup.

It was announced today that actors Jennifer Lawrence and Jodie Foster have been selected to present this year's Best Actress prize, replacing last year's winner Casey Affleck following multiple reports of sexual misconduct surrounding the Academy Award-winning actor.

The 90th Oscars will be held on Sunday, March 4, at the Dolby Theatre ® at Hollywood & Highland Center ® in Hollywood, and will be broadcast live on The ABC Television Network at 8 p.m. EST/5p.m. PST. "The Oscars," produced by Michael De Luca and Jennifer Todd and hosted by Jimmy Kimmel, will also be televised in more than 225 countries and territories worldwide.
