The Oscars are looking for a host for the 2022 ceremonies.

It'll be the first time the show has had a host since 2018! Previous hosts have included celebs like Jimmy Kimmel, Chris Rock, and Hugh Jackman.

Getty Images Kevin Hart was the planned host for the 2019 ceremony, but he stepped down from the gig when some of his old tweets featuring homophobic language resurfaced. The show has gone without a host since.
While there are lots of rumors that they've tapped either Tom Holland or Pete Davidson for the honor, nothing's official yet.

So, naturally, people have taken to Twitter to tell the Academy who they believe should nab the coveted gig.

And man, have they gotten creative with their picks!
