Kevin Hart hasn’t changed his mind about never hosting the Oscars, a claim he’s made since stepping down from the position in 2019 after past homophobic comments came to light on Twitter.

In an interview with Sky News today promoting his new Netflix film Lift, Hart, told by the interviewer that his fans were “gutted” by his absence from the 2019 Oscars and asked whether he’d consider hosting in the future, said, “Whatever little hope you had, I want to destroy it right now.

Those gigs aren’t good gigs for comics.” Hart emphasized that he wasn’t insulting the Oscars or similar shows like the Golden Globes. “Those just aren’t comedy-friendly environments anymore.

I think [the Oscars] got it right one year where it was like just a bunch of personalities acting as the hosts and that’s a nice thing.
