It's a madhouse over at the Academy, as the race to add presenters continues, even though we're mere days away from the big show.

In this case, 'Twilight' star Kristen Stewart will add some star power (and a "Please God, let me be anywhere but here" expression) to the ceremony. She joins the latest group of presenters, including:

'Django Unchained' star Kerry Washington (who stars on ABC's own Scandal, so that's some pretty good synergy on the part of the Academy)

Jennifer Garner (who's going to be there anyway, rooting for husband Ben Affleck, so why not?)

Two-time Oscar winner Jane Fonda, who ranks among the last bastions of American Hollywood royalty.

The actresses join a positively stacked list of presenters: Jennifer Aniston, Michael Douglas, Jamie Foxx, Paul Rudd, Salma Hayek, Melissa McCarthy, Liam Neeson, John Travolta, Ben Affleck, Jessica Chastain, Jennifer Lawrence, Halle Berry, Sandra Bullock, Nicole Kidman, Reese Witherspoon, and Mark Wahlberg with thunder buddy Ted (voiced by host Seth MacFarlane).

In addition, the cast of "Marvel's The Avengers" (Robert Downey Jr., Samuel L. Jackson, Chris Evans, Jeremy Renner and Mark Ruffalo) will also present, as will the reunited cast of 2002 Best Picture winner "Chicago" (Richard Gere, Queen Latifah, Renée Zellweger and Catherine Zeta-Jones) and 2011 Oscar winners in the acting categories (Jean Dujardin, Christopher Plummer, Octavia Spencer and Meryl Streep).

This is without even mentioning the performers lined up for the ceremony, a roster that includes Kristin Chenoweth, Jennifer Hudson, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe, Anne Hathaway, Amanda Seyfried, Eddie Redmayne, Samantha Barks, Aaron Tveit and Helena Bonham, Adele, Dame Shirley Bassey, Norah Jones and Barbra Streisand.

The 85th Academy Awards airs live this Sunday on ABC.
