Laura Dern, Margot Robbie, Evan Spiegel, Steven Spielberg and Taika Waititi also were among the A-listers who turned out for the invitation-only fundraiser — one of Hollywood's glitziest gatherings of Oscar weekend.
A who's-who of Oscar nominees and top Hollywood executives were on hand Saturday night to support the Motion Picture & Television Fund at its 18th annual "Night Before" party, which raised more than $5.4 million in support of the MPTF.
One of the key events of Oscar weekend, the "Night Before" party, held on the Fox Studios lot in Los Angeles and co-sponsored by The Hollywood Reporter, drew both past Oscar winners and current nominees including Amy Adams, Mahershala Ali, Antonio Banderas, Adrien Brody, Nicolas Cage, Viola Davis, Laura Dern, Greta Gerwig, Tom Hanks, Marcia Gay Harden, Michael Keaton, Regina King, Brie Larson, Rami Malek, Sam Mendes, Joe Pesci, Jonathan Pryce, Florence Pugh, Margot Robbie, Octavia Spencer, Steven Spielberg, Taika Waititi, Diane Warren and Renée Zellweger.
Zellweger and Baumbach made their way to the party just a few hours after collecting Film Independent Spirit Awards earlier in the day for best actress for Judy and best screenplay for Marriage Story, respectively. Marriage Story also was honored with the Robert Altman Award.
Also circulating in the converted soundstage were top executives including Disney's Bob Iger, Peter Rice and Dana Walden; WarnerMedia's Bob Greenblatt; Snap's Evan Spiegel, Netflix's Ted Sarandos, Tendo Nagenda and Lisa Nishimura; Paramount's Jim Gianopulos; ABC's Karey Burke; Amblin's Jen Brody; Legendary's Josh Grode; Wasserman's Casey Wasserman; and YouTube's Robert Kyncl.
The 2020 host committee featured a slew of current and past Oscar nominees and winners, including Adams & Darren Le Gallo, Banderas, Tanya Haden Black & Jack Black, Kate Capshaw & Spielberg, Laura Dern, Josh Gad, Stella & Anthony Hopkins, King, Malek, Pesci, Pryce, Florence Pugh, Robbie, Spencer, Charlize Theron, Rita Wilson & Hanks and Zellweger.

Funds are used to support industry colleagues and friends who benefit from MPTF’s charitable programs and services, such as financial assistance, crisis counseling, care giving support and the retirement facility in Woodland Hills that is "home" to television and film veterans. In total, the annual event has raised more than $90 million since its inception in 2003.
THR returned as one of the presenting sponsors of the event alongside Delta Air Lines, Facebook Watch, Ford Motor Company, L’Oréal USA, Target, Yahoo! and YouTube. This marked THR's seventh year as the sole media sponsor of the party.
"MPTF's 'Night Before' once again brought our industry together in the spirit of a community that truly takes care of its own. We're incredibly grateful for the generosity of the corporate sponsors and donors from the entertainment community who came out to support and sustain our mission," Katzenberg said. "We look forward to celebrating with them again next year, our organization's 100th anniversary."
