the academy still did not reveal who will replace the actor at the Oscars for best actress, but different scenarios are considered. One of the options is Frances McDormand, who was supposed to present the award to Will Smith in the best actor category last year, but was unable to attend the ceremony. John Travolta was the one who presented the winner of the category, so this year Frances McDormand could be there to finally meet the delivery.
