"Once again, they've made me an offer I can’t refuse. But this is the very last time I’m doing this, which could make for a fun evening," Gervais said when it was announced he'd return as host., Gervais said that he wasn't worried about offending the night's guests. "When I do it, I'm going to say what I want. I don't have to rehearse.
He added that he chose to host the 2020 ceremony because the gig is fun. "That first time I did it, [I thought], 'Do I pander to the 200 privileged egos in the room, or do I try and entertain a global audience of 200 million people sitting at home who aren't winning awards?' Well, no contest. I try and make it a spectator sport. I try and play the outsider," he said.
Gervais also reflected on writing his own material and making sure that his jokes age well in light of Kevin Hart's Oscar hosting controversy. "I write jokes and they're considered and I make sure they're bulletproof. Nowadays, you've got to make sure they're bulletproof in 10 years' time, with people going through saying, 'He said this once, 10 years [ago].
As for who he'll target, Gervais said he didn't plan on making jokes at the expense of one single person. "I think I'll go after the general community. I'd go after cinema and I'd go after television and I'd go after actors and I'll go after pretension and hypocrisy," he said. "I'd go after those big, nebulous things where they can all feel I'm not picking on any one person.
