The Marvel actor has taken over from Kenan Thompson as the host of the annual awards show, which honours film, TV, music and pop culture.
"I'm so grateful to have been asked to step up to the hosting plate for the 2024 People's Choice Awards," said Liu in a statement. "It's exciting to celebrate this incredible year in pop culture, and to do so with the incredible fans that make what we do possible."
Liu previously won a People's Choice Award for Action Movie Star of the Year for Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings in 2021.
He is currently up for Movie Performance of the Year for his role as one of the Kens in Barbie.
Greta Gerwig's movie leads the film nominees with eight, including Movie of the Year and Comedy Movie of the Year. Liu's co-stars Margot Robbie, Ryan Gosling and America Ferrera were also shortlisted for their performances.
