John Travolta is back as an Oscar presenter after last year's name-pronouncing gaffe.

The actor introduced Frozen singer Idina Menzel as "Adele Dazeem" much to his embarrassment, and the amusement of viewers, sparking a social media sensation.

However, he has been invited back to present an award at this year's ceremony, as part of a starry lineup which includes Scarlett Johansson, Sienna Miller, Chris Pratt, Jennifer Aniston and David Oyelowo.

Neil Patrick Harris is hosting the 87th Academy Awards on February 22 in Beverly Hills.
