The Oscars Will Have Hosts This Year--Amy Schumer, Wanda Sykes, And Regina Hall
After a few years with no host, the Academy has announced that there will be not one but three hosts for this year's event. The hosts will be Regina Hall, Amy Schumer, and Wanda Sykes.
2021's Oscars had the worst ratings in the show's history, and the show hasn't had a «normal» year with a host since 2018. This year's Oscars event returns to the Dolby Theater in Hollywood, and vaccination is not required for attendees (though a recent negative test is necessary).
«We want people to get ready to have a good time. It's been a while,» Hall, Schumer, and Sykes said in a statement.
