Brie Larson declined to clap for Casey Affleck, whose nomination has been shrouded in controversy due to his history of sexual harassment allegations, at Monday's Oscars.

The actress notably withheld her applause while presenting to the Manchester By The Sea actor, who faced sexual harassment allegations in relation to his conduct towards two female co-workers on a film set in 2010.

She had previously not clapped for Affleck while presenting him with his award for Best Actor - Motion Picture Drama at January's Golden Globes.

However, unlike at the Golden Globes, Larson did briefly hug Affleck as she handed over the statuette.
