MTV Movie Awards 2016: Dwayne Johnson, Kevin Hart to Host
- 8 years ago
Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart will host the 2016 MTV Movie Awards together, Variety has learned.
This year's MTV Movie Awards, which marks the 25th anniversary for the award show, will be pre-taped live-style across the Warner Bros. backlot the day before the broadcast on April 9, taking place outdoors across multiple locations, unlike most award shows, which air from a singular theater.
Patterson says Johnson and Hart make the perfect hosts because they engage with their fans.
“We could not be in better hands than with these two guys because they really represent what it means to be a movie star right now,” the exec producer tells Variety.
"It's an honor to be hosting the ' MTV Movie Awards ' with a guy who's not only one of the funniest guys on the planet, but who's often mistaken as my twin, Kevin Hart," said Johnson.
