The first presenters of the upcoming 87th annual Academy Awards are announced. Last year's big winners Lupita Nyong'o, Jared Leto, Matthew McConaughey, and Cate Blanchett are all enlisted to present awards at the Oscars on February 22.

Last year, co-stars McConaughey and Leto won Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor respectively for their roles in "Dallas Buyers Club". Meanwhile, Blanchett and Nyong'o grabbed Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress, thanks to their performances in "Blue Jasmine" and "12 Years a Slave" respectively.

"The great tradition of having the previous year's Oscar-winning best actors and actresses in all 4 categories happily continues this year with the amazing quartet of Cate, Jared, Matthew and Lupita," said show producers Crag Zadan and Neil Meron. "We're thrilled to have them back."

Neil Patrick Harris is set to host the live ceremony at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, Los Angeles. John Legend and Common will perform "Glory" from "Selma", Adam Levine will sing "Lost Stars" from "Begin Again", Rita Ora will deliver "Grateful" from "Beyond the Lights", and Tim McGraw will treat audience to "I'm Not Gonna Miss You" from "Glen Campbell: I'll Be Me".

All those soundtracks, along with "Everything Is Awesome" from "The Lego Movie", are nominated for Best Original Song.
