Jimmy Kimmel will return to host the 2024 Oscars, marking his fourth time presiding over the ceremony.

The late-night US talk show host will front the ceremony on March 10 for the second consecutive year after his “triumphant return to the Oscars stage last year” which earned him an Emmy nomination, the show’s producers said on Wednesday.
