Tom Holland was reportedly asked to host the 2022 Oscars ceremony. It’s been revealed that the Academy is looking for someone to host the Oscars this year. Apparently, our current friendly neighborhood Spiderman actor is in the running! In an article by The Hollywood Reporter, it’s said the Academy has reached out to Holland “to explore the possibility.” Tom Holland, the now 25-year-old British actor, has expressed interest in the past of wanting to host the Oscars. As of now, it is unclear what came of those conversations between the Academy and Holland.
It was confirmed by THR that the 2022 Oscars ceremony would have a host after being host-less the past few years. This would be the first Oscars ceremony to have a host in three years since Kevin Hart’s departure from hosting in 2019. Before that, Jimmy Kimmel was the last person to host the ceremony in 2018. This wouldn’t be his first time being on the Oscars stage if Holland were to host. The star of the upcoming ‘Uncharted’ film previously presented the award for Best Visual Effects at the 2018 Academy Awards with Gina Rodriguez.
Could Tom Holland be the Oscars host for the 2022 ceremony? After watching No Way Home, we’ve already seen the impossible can indeed be possible. If Holland were to host, I firmly believe viewership would increase for the Oscars after a dip in recent years. Holland’s youthful and charismatic energy could be the perfect fit to bring everyone together for the awards ceremony this year. Only time will tell.
