"We're super thrilled to have Jimmy score his hat-trick on this global stage," executive producers and showrunners Glenn Weiss and Ricky Kirshner said in a joint statement sent to Sky News."We know he will be funny and ready for anything." "Being invited to host the Oscars for a third time is either a great honour or a trap," Kimmel joked."Either way, I am grateful to the academy for asking me so quickly after everyone good said no."
Following Kimmel's hosting duties in 2018, the Oscars ceremony was held without a main presenter until this year's ceremony - which saw Regina Hall, Amy Schumer and Wanda Sykes sharing the stage.
