Ben Affleck Presents Best Director Award at Oscars 2015

Ben Affleck takes the stage to present the Best Director award at the 2015 Academy Awards held at the Dolby Theatre on Sunday (February 22) in Hollywood.

The 42-year-old actor presented the award to Birdman director Alejandro González Iñárritu, who beat out Bennett Miller, Morten Tyldum, Richard Linklater and Wes Anderson.

Ben was also involved in a funny joke on stage from host Neil Patrick Harris. “Benedict Cumberbatch is not only the best name in show business, it’s also the response you get when you ask John Travolta to pronounce Ben Affleck,” Neil said during the show to zing John. The camera then panned to Ben‘s face and showed him laughing!
