Here’s our first look at Sam at his first Oscars! Looking dashing as always. Can’t wait to see him present! More pics to come, stay tuned.

Here’s a few pics of Sam looking adorable rehearsing for his presenting gig at the Oscars tomorrow night. Looks like he finally got some glasses to rectify that little blindness/squinting issue he has.

According to eyewitnesses, Sam was “unflappable” during rehearsal. Can’t wait to see him tomorrow!!

Finally, “Avatar” star Sam Worthington took the stage. Wearing a hooded sweatshirt and horn-rimmed glasses, the Australian actor was unflappable. He rehearsed his lines, and the theater went dark. One more day of rehearsals and then the real deal.
