Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra will announce this year’s Oscar nominations, the Academy has announced.
The couple, who tied the knot in 2018, will host a live, two-part presentation on Monday March 15th.
The event will be streamed on social media, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences said.
Pop star Jonas, 28, and actress Chopra, 38, shared the news in a video posted to Twitter. Jonas said he is “so excited”.
Chopra joked: “Hey @theacademy, any chance I can announce the Oscar nominations solo? Just kidding, love you @nickjonas!”
Chopra, whose career began in India before she found success in Hollywood, recently starred in and produced Netflix drama The White Tiger.
Jonas, a singer and actor, is preparing for the release of his fourth studio album Spaceman later this week.
