The list has proven incredibly popular on Twitter, where it has been widely praised for its diversity. Film fans were particularly excited to note that it included actress Daniela Vega, an openly transgender Chilean star.
Vega stars in A Fantastic Woman, which is nominated for Best Foreign Language Film on the night.
"The final presenter announced here is a notable one: actress Daniela Vega. Unless I’m wrong (I did some cursory research and I don’t think I am), Vega will be the first openly transgender performer to present at the Oscars ceremony" ❤️❤️❤️❤️ https://t.co/mkQcrL51iH
