He said: "It's an honour to be hosting the 'MTV Movie Awards' with a guy who's not only one of the funniest guys on the planet, but who's often mistaken as my twin, Kevin Hart. We live for our fans and promise to make this an epic, historic unforgettable night for them."

Whilst Kevin added: ''I love hosting - it's my thing. Dwayne and I are the perfect team for the epic 25th anniversary show. It's going to go down.''

"They are bringing the action and comedy to the big 25th anniversary of the 'MTV Movie Awards,' which makes me excited and frankly a little afraid. Double trouble!"
