London, Feb 20 (IANS): Actors Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart will together host the 2016 MTV Movie Awards.
The annual show, which will be aired on April 10 will come prior to the duo’s summer film “Central Intelligence”, reports variety.com.
This year’s MTV Movie Awards, which marks the 25th anniversary of the show, will be pre-taped live-style the day before the broadcast on April 9, taking place outdoors across multiple locations, unlike most award shows, which air from a singular theater.
“We want to do a big, brave thing to celebrate movies,” the show’s executive producer Casey Patterson says of filming.
“We love Kevin and Dwayne for doing big, risky, bold things. Most award shows play it safe. They’re the right guys to take big swings,” Patterson added.
