Viola Davis, Laura Dern, and more added as Emmy presenters

The list also include Dave Chappelle, Alexis Bledel, and Melissa McCarthy

The 2017 Emmys ceremony is getting more Big Little liars, comics, past winners, and all-around star power for the ongoing list of awards presenters.

Alexis Bledel (The Handmaid’s Tale), Dave Chappelle (Saturday Night Live), James Corden (The Late Late Show), Melissa McCarthy (Saturday Night Live), Seth MacFarlane (Family Guy), and Gerald McRaney (This Is Us) already won various Emmys when the Creative Arts awards were announced last weekend. Now, they’ll return to the main stage to present various statuettes during this Sunday’s ceremony.

Reese Witherspoon, Nicole Kidman, and Adam Scott, who were already announced as presenters, will be joined by more of their Big Little Lies cast members: Laura Dern, Shailene Woodley, and Zoë Kravitz. Rachel Bloom, LL Cool J, Cicely Tyson, and BD Wong, all nominated in various categories at the Emmys, were added to the mix as well.
