The 2015 Academy Awards will have a brand new host, with Neil Patrick Harris set to present the ceremony for the very first time.
Having recently hosted this year’s Emmy Awards on top of several Tony Awards ceremonies, Harris is an experienced hand at this kind of gig, and looks a worthy replacement for Ellen DeGeneres.
