Jon Stewart is getting a do-over as Oscar host.
America’s favorite faux newscaster, who drew mixed reviews for his first stint in 2006, has been picked for a return engagement in February, the film academy announced.
“I’m thrilled to be asked to host the Academy Awards for the second time because, as they say, the third time’s a charm,” Stewart said in a statement from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences.
