Amy Schumer says she is preparing to get herself in “some trouble” when she co-hosts this year’s Oscars.
The Trainwreck star, 40, has opened up about teaming with Wanda Sykes and Regina Hall at the 94th Academy Awards later this month in a new interview.
“I’m going to get myself in some trouble as per the [usual]. Wanda, Regina are hilarious, and we’re having a blast preparing,” she told Extra.
“I mean, I don’t know who made the decision to let me personally be a host, but it’s not a good one,” Schumer, who led the 2015 MTV Movie Awards, added. “Because it’ll burn all bridges. I’ll burn every bridge.”
The Oscars will take place at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on March 27.
2022 marks the first time that the Academy Awards have had a host since Jimmy Kimmel in 2018.
It will also be the first time that three women have hosted the show, plus, the first time that there have been at least three emcees since 1987.
