Chance the Rapper is the host of Quibi’s Punk’d revival. 

Multiple outlets confirm that the multiple Grammy winner has been set to be the host of the forthcoming new iteration of the show, originally hosted by Ashton Kutcher. 

Punk’d is one of MTV’s most iconic franchises,” said Chance. “I grew up watching this show and it’s surreal to be in the driver’s seat this time around on Quibi.”

The hidden-camera show featuring celebrity pranks show will be re-imagined for the forthcoming platform which is said to offer bite-size content in the form of episodes of 10 minutes or less. 

The original Punk’d ran from 2002 to 2007 on MTV. 

Quibi is set to launch on April 6.
