HOLLYWOOD heavyweight Russell Crowe is likely to sing at the AFI awards in Melbourne this month.

Crowe, who will host both the AFI Craft Awards for behind-the-scenes artists on November 25 and the AFI Awards Dinner the following night, is expected to use the events to kick off his corporate gig tour in December.
But the gruff star won't have centre stage all to himself. Sources tip Marcia Hines to perform with him at the awards.

Crowe will also co-produce the awards with Peter Wynne, one of the country's busiest big event producers.

An all-star cast is heading to Melbourne for the AFI Awards Dinner, which will be held at Central City Studios, Docklands.

Oscar winner Geoffrey Rush, Golden Globe winner Rachel Griffiths and Oscar-nominated Toni Collette will be presenting film and television awards on November 26.

Martin Henderson, who has a best supporting actor nomination for his work on the gritty Little Fish, will attend and present, as will The Guardian star, Simon Baker.

Vince Colosimo, Claudia Karvan and Saskia Burmeister have also been confirmed as presenters.

Other awards performers include Delta Goodrem, who will also present one of the awards, and Nick Cave.

With Paul Dainty as executive producer, the AFIs have undergone a total revamp.

The night, inspired by the glamour of the Golden Globes, is shaping up as one of the most spectacular on the Melbourne event calendar.

The cream of Australia's acting industry has been invited to attend.

AFI Awards guests will walk along a 100m red carpet and attend an elegant cocktail party at the Waterfront City Pavilion at Docklands before the awards dinner.

The AFIs will be televised on Channel 9.
