Seth MacFarlane, Emma Stone to Announce the Oscar Nominees

For the first time since 1972, the Oscar host will be a part of the team announcing the Academy Award nominations. Seth MacFarlane will be joining Emma Stone (soon to be seen in Gangster Squad) to announce the key Oscar nominations on Thursday, January 10th. For those on the West Coast, this annual release of the Oscar nominees means we have to get up before the sun rises in order to get the info live. East Coast movie fans have an easier time tuning in as the big reveal is set for 5:30am PT/8:30am ET.
 
The only other Oscar host to participate in the nominations broadcast was Charlton Heston, according to the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.
 
In addition to Gangster Squad coming out on January 11th, Stone has The Croods set for release in March.
 
The Academy Awards will take place on Sunday, February 24, 2013, at the Dolby Theatre™ at Hollywood & Highland Center.
