AceShowbiz - Anne Hathaway has little advice for Neil Patrick Harris who is tapped to host the upcoming Oscars ceremony in February. The "Les Miserables" actress who hosted the annual awards show alongside James Franco in 2011 shared some words regarding the upcoming ceremony in an interview with the New York Times which was published on Tuesday, January 6. When asked if she had some advice for the actor, Hathaway replied, "Do the opposite of what I did, and you'll be fine."
The Hathaway and Franco duo was previously criticized for the lack of chemistry during their stint. When the magazine asked, "What do you think went wrong?" she answered, "I think it's so obvious that it doesn't even need to be identified. He'll be great. He's a natural host."
The 2015 Academy Awards airs on February 22 on ABC. Nominations voting ends on January 8 and the nominees will be announced on January 15.
The Oscar-winning actress also talked about her new movie "Song One" which she starred in and produced alongside her husband Adam Shulman. In the romantic film, her character falls for Johnny Flynn. When asked if she felt strange to play a woman who is in love in front of her husband, Hathaway explained, "We've been together for six years, so we're pretty well versed on that dynamic. It was more about putting [my co-star] Johnny Flynn at ease. Because all of a sudden, he has a love scene with the producer's wife - also a producer." "Song One" hits U.S. theaters on January 23.
