Dwayne  <The Rock>  Johnson perform a musical number at this year's Oscars

On last Thursday, the wrestler and the actor said he was in talks with the Academy to host the 2019 Oscars but he couldn't do it .

'''I was so excited to get that call, and I didn’t anticipate it''' THE ROCK said.

DWAYNE said that his team didn't campaign for the opportunity, but he was about the possibility of hosting what is arguably the most prestigious award show in the world.

'''I just paused in my silence and was like, wow thank you so much, and then immediately my brain started going, we'll do this kind of number and that''' THE ROCK said.

DWAYNE said he met with Oscars producers DONNA GIGLIOTTI and GLENN WEISS several times and had already begun working on what his vision for the show as host would look like .

The super star said he and his team were going to turn the Oscars on their head this year and make it something special and unique and different .

regrettably, DWAYNE (THE ROCK) ultimately had to decline the offer because he's filming the sequel to Jumanji, which ironically he stars in with HART .

As of now, the 91st Academy Awards are set to go on as they always do each year, except there won't be a host for the first time since 1989.
