2019 would the first year that the Oscars will start the award show without a host.However, producers Donna Gigliotti and Glenn Weiss have a few names on the wishlist for the gala on February 24. Instead of a solo artiste, the team of 2019 Academy Awards is planning to get the cast of Avengers to present different portions of the show, before the last Avengers franchise — Endgame comes out in theatres.

According to the Guardian, the Academy had a dry run with this format back in 2013 when Robert Downey Jr, Chris Evans, Mark Ruffalo, Jeremy Renner and Samuel L Jackson came on stage for an award. With the huge star cast in Avengers to boast of, it would be an interesting change from the usual. The confusion of finding a new host ensued when American actor-comedian Kevin Hart, who was announced as the host of the 2019 award ceremony, pulled out of the show later.
