That's right, Jimmy Kimmel is back for a fourth round of hosting The Oscars on ABC. The late-night talk show host signed on to help steer the 96th edition of the program. Academy CEO Bill Kramer and President Janet Yang announced it last fall. Things were looking desperate there for a second with the Will Smith situation in recent memory. But, Kimmel is bringing his trademark touch to the proceedings, "I always dreamed of hosting the Oscars exactly four times," the comedian said in the release.
"We are thrilled about Jimmy returning to host and Molly returning as executive producer for the Oscars. They share our love of movies and our commitment to producing a dynamic and entertaining show for our global audience," Kramer and Yang told the press. "We are deeply grateful to Jimmy, Molly and their teams for their incredible creativity and partnership and for going on this ride with us again."
"Jimmy has cemented himself as one of the all-time great Oscars hosts with his perfect blend of humanity and humor, and Molly is one of the best live TV producers around. We are delighted to be working with them and their teams on the show," added Oscars executive producer and showrunner Raj Kapoor and executive producer Katy Mullan.
"After his triumphant return to the Oscars stage last year, we are honored to have Jimmy back to guide us through one of the most beloved celebrations in entertainment. He is such a valuable member of our Disney family, and we could not be more appreciative of him and his entire team," Craig Erwich, president of ABC Entertainment, Hulu and Disney Branded Television Streaming Originals continued. "We are also grateful to have the multitalented Molly back on the producing team, and we have no doubt that this year will be a spectacular night celebrating the biggest films of the year."
Could Barbie's I'm Just Ken Get An Oscars Nod?

While Barbie might not be able to claim Best Picture at the ceremony, Best Original Song might be within reach. W Magazine interviewed Ryan Gosling about his mega-hit from the movie. Fans from all over hoped that he and Jack Black could sing their original songs during the show. But, "Peaches" didn't make the shortlist. However, "I'm Just Ken" squeaked into the final pool of selections. Gosling isn't expecting it, but would be very honored to go up there and show off what he can do.
"Well, I haven't been invited. And I wasn't thinking about it until now, and now it's all I'm going to think about," Gosling revealed. "Do you get paid to sing at the Oscars? Do you have to drive yourself? What kind of scratch is involved? They pick you up at least, right?"
