Official Trailer For The 84th Academy Awards
With the 84th Academy Awards fast approaching, The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has released the trailer for the show in conjunction with Funny Or Die. The trailer features host Billy Crystal and cameo appearances from the likes of Robin Williams, Josh Duhamel, Megan Fox, William Fichtner and Vinnie Jones. Crystal has one of the most distinguished track records of any host in Oscar history. His upcoming appearance will mark his ninth turn hosting the Academy Awards. Oscar nominations will be announced on January 24th, 2012 and the 84th Academy Awards will take place on February 26th, 2012.
“We wanted to try something a little bit different this year instead of a traditional, clip-based piece,” said Academy Chief Marketing Officer Christina Kounelias. “The trailer has a fun twist that conveys how excited everyone is to have Billy back.”
“Our team had a great time working with the Academy and joining forces with Billy again,” said Mike Farah, Funny Or Die’s president of production. “We think the trailer really speaks to the excitement around this year’s Oscars®, and Funny Or Die was honored to be a part of it.”
