A host of A-list Hollywood stars from Meryl Streep to Lupita Nyong’o, Channing Tatum to Harrison Ford, and prestigious British actors including Colin Firth, have been revealed as awards presenters at this Sunday’s Golden Globe awards.

Following the success of the previous two years, comedy duo Tina Fey and Amy Poehler will return to host the 72nd annual awards ceremony, and will be joined by the line-up of former Golden Globe winners and nominees to hand out the awards.

British actors Colin Firth, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Kate Beckinsale, Jamie Dornan and Ricky Gervais are among those set to present. They will appear alongside classic Hollywood stars such as Harrison Ford and Jane Fonda, Oscar winners including Meryl Streep and Matthew McConaughey, Breaking Bad star Bryan Cranston and current nominees such as Amy Adams and Jennifer Aniston.

Ricky Gervais has already suggested he may be turning up to the awards dressed as his controversial character “Derek” and simply hug people throughout the night, while others are expected to attend in more traditional red carpet attire.

The films leading nominations this year include Birdman, which has seven nominations this year including best director and best screenplay, Richard Linklater’s Boyhood, and The Imitation Game, which stars Benedict Cumberbatch.
