The Academy Awards in 2020 may also end up having no host, just like this year’s Oscar’s ceremony, if ABC Entertainment head Karey Burke is to be believed.
“I believe we will not mess with that format to the best of our ability,” variety.com quoted Burke as saying on the idea that next year’s Oscars could also be without a host.
Burke said she was not saying yes or no to the idea of Jimmy Kimmel hosting the Oscars in 2020, a real possibility given the fact Kimmel recently signed a three-year extension of his deal with the network.
