Neil Patrick Harris has been confirmed as the host of the 87th Oscars Awards next year.

He revealed his news on his Twitter page last night, posting a link to a video in which he is seen receiving a phone call before saying ‘I’m in’.

The camera then pans to ‘NPH’s Bucket List’ which includes monumental life moments such as ‘win a Tony Award’, ‘fly in a hot-air balloon’, ‘have children’ and ‘meet the president’.

19 of the  20 of the items on the list are ticked and then right at the bottom of the list is ‘host the Oscars’ which is unticked and circled.
