Ricky Gervais has already hosted the Golden Globes four times, so isn't it about time he's given a shot at the Oscars?
"I would if they said I could say what I wanted, but they would never say that," the funny man told E! News at the Tribeca Film Festival premiere of his new Netflix movie Special Correspondents.
And if by chance he was given free reign, Gervais joked that the Academy would probably give him the boot early on in the show. "I don't want to ruin their lovely night," he said.
As for returning to the Globes again, Gervais said, "It's funny because I feel like I get it out of my system and then when it comes around like this time I said no because I was just too busy, but they persuaded me. But I do enjoy it every time I do it. It's always fun.
"People think I don't enjoy it," he said. "I love it. I love going up there and saying what I want but it is stressful. It's quite stressful because you gotta work. I do work a little bit."
In addition to drinking a beer while on stage during his Globes hosting duties this year, Gervais opened the show by referring to the audience as, "You disgusting, pill-popping, sexual-deviant scum."
The Hollywood Foreign Press Association recently announced that the 74th annual Golden Globes will take place on Jan. 8, 2017.
That Oscars will take place about two months later on March 4.
Special Correspondents will be available on Netflix on April. 29.
