The Oscars drama keeps coming, as actor Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson has claimed that he was their first choice.

A St. Louis columnist tweeted that they should tap Johnson to host, he then revealed that they did originally choose, him but he had to turn it down because he was filming a movie.

“Ah mahalo dude, I was their first choice to host this year, and my goal was to make it the most fun and entertaining Oscars ever,” he tweeted in response.

He then explained, ” We all tried hard, but couldn’t make it work since I’m shooting Jumanji. Academy and I were super bummed but maybe one day down the road 🥃

His ‘Jumanji’ co-star Kevin Hart was also asked to present the Oscars and accepted before being forced to step down after old homophobic tweets resurfaced.
