Hugh Jackman Not Hosting Oscars Again This Year

Man, the Oscar producers really like Hugh Jackman. After they successfully got him to host two years ago, they approached him last year to host. But ol' Jackman didn’t want to dip into the well two years in a row so he declined. Hosting duties went to Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin instead, and it went fairly well. Now that he’s had a buffer year, Jackman shouldn’t have an excuse. Except he’s prepping the sequel to X-men Origins: Wolverine and will be filming around the time of the Oscars.
