Well, although unconfirmed, Selena Gomez may host this year’s Oscars along with her co-stars from “Only Murders in the Building,” Steve Martin and Martin Short. Speculations on who is going to host this year’s coveted Oscars have been doing the rounds as the award ceremony draws closer. Other celebrities, such as Tom Holland and Pete Davidson, have also come up for the position.
It was recently confirmed that this time around, the Oscars will have a host after a gap of almost three years. Tom Holland, whose Spider-Man: No Way Home was released exactly a month ago, has shown interest in the gig, and he might as well do it. However, rumours are also rife of Davidson’s donning the role because of his alleged romance with Kim Kardashian. But as per Variety, although many people are being considered, Pete Davidson, for sure, will not host the award night. Reports suggest that Selena, Martin Short, and Steve Martin fit in ideally for the role as they showcase a perfect corporate Disney bond with Hulu and ABC.
The president of both the channels, Craig Erwich, speaking on the development, called them an iconic trio having mass appeal. However, they are also considering a lot of other incredible talents for the job as well. But it will be fun to see the three-time host Steve Martin, with Selena Gomez, and Martin Short, come together to take up the mantle.
