“We are thrilled about Jimmy returning to host and Molly returning as executive producer for the Oscars.

“I always dreamed of hosting the Oscars exactly four times,” said Kimmel.<\/div>\n

“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,” said Oscars executive producer and showrunner Raj Kapoor and executive producer Katy Mullan.<\/div>\n

“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,” said Craig Erwich, president of ABC Entertainment, Hulu and Disney Branded Television Streaming Originals. “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.”<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“I’m especially honored to be part of the Oscars team this year, when we are all eager to be back together and back at work,” said McNearney.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
