As we reported earlier, Hugh Jackman was the frontrunner to host the 2010 Academy Awards, but it seems the Wolverine hunk has turned down to role, leaving it vacant for Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin to step in.
Rumours surfaced that the Aussie star was not interested due to another acting commitment.
It will be Baldwin’s first bite of the Academy-hosting cherry, but the 30 Rock star should be confident enough on stage. He has hosted Saturday Night Live 14 times.
In pictures: Oscars Hosts Steve Martin on the other hand is an Oscar veteran. Next year will be the third time he has hosted the movie industry’s night of nights.
Your say: Do you think these two will be a good hosting combination? Who has been your favourite host over the years? Who would you like to see host the awards in the future? Tell us below.
