Not only a suit, ocw, but most likely a tux!
Remember his tux from his 2003 Oscar appearance? (Be still, my heart!)
In fact, I was wondering if TWC might be nominated for best comedy of 2005.
Thanks for the wonderful news, Remi.

This will likely make me watch the Oscars................ do you think he'll just do one presentation??? He's not like the host, like Billy Crystal, or anything, is he? ?

How awesome would that be if one year he did host? I don't think they would ever let him, but it would be amazing!

WF, I'm sure Owen will only be presenting, not hosting.
In fact, I haven't heard yet who will be hosting this year. I doubt it will be Chris Rock, thank goodness.
I think Owen as a host - along with Ben Stiller or Vince Vaughn or Luke - would be the best thing to happen to the Academy Awards.
Maybe after many more years of successful films and TV appearances Owen might be asked to host. We can only hope!

From YahooNews:
Owen Wilson was named to the slate of Oscar presenters yesterday, and now it's his little brother's turn. This morning Gil Cates announced the academy had booked Luke Wilson.
Wilson, 34, who recently appeared in "The Family Stone," has worked with his brother Owen on several films, including "The Royal Tenenbaums," "Rushmore" and "Bottle Rocket."
If our research is correct, this will be the first time brothers have presented on the Oscar show since Jeff and Beau Bridges handed out an award in 1989 (accompanied by father Lloyd Bridges).
In recent years, family members have occasionally presented together, but most often as a parent and child team: Francis and Sofia Coppola in 2004, Diane Ladd and Laura Dern in 1992, Donald and Kiefer Sutherland in 1989.
This, by the way, does not mean that the Wilson brothers will be together on the Kodak stage; the prospect seems likely, perhaps even unavoidable, but Cates prefers to keep his presenter assignments closely guarded.

I hope it will be Owen & Luke together. That would be awesome! And I don't really care for Jon Stewart either but its better than Chris Rock, I guess.

Jon Stewart is great on his own show (my opinion), but hosting an award show is totally different. It will be fun to see how he does. (But it will be more fun to see Luke & Owen).
