Chris Rock is our 2016 Academy Awards host. Hollywood's biggest night will be held Feb. 28 on ABC. This will mark Rock's second go as Oscars emcee; he last hosted the show in 2005. ?I'm so glad to be hosting the Oscars,? Rock said in a statement. To get a feel for Rock's hosting flavor, here's his monologue from the 2005 show, where he riffed on Hollywood's lack of diversity and politics. Rock also memorably joked about Jude Law's successful career.
