"It has been a lot happening in a very short time," the comedian tells PEOPLE at the Sundance Film Festival premiere of 'If I Had Legs I'd Kick You'

Rose Byrne plays a mother in the midst of a breakdown in the experiential psychological thriller “If I Had Legs I’d Kick You.”

Oscars host Conan O’Brien says he’s still unable to live in his home due to the devastating wildfires in Los Angeles and that the show’s organizers “want to be sensitive to what’s happened” to residents.

Conan O’Brien, the beloved late night show host, has officially made his acting debut in If I Had Legs I’d Kick You, an oppressive drama that made waves at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival last Friday (January 24).

Leary and O’Brien both got their start in comedy, as a stand-up comedian and 'Saturday Night Live' writer, respectively.

Conan O’Brien is one of the lucky few whose Pacific Palisades home is still standing after the LA wildfires, but he says he knows many who’ve been affected by the devastation, including his podcast co-host Sona Movsesian.

Jay Leno was warned by his “Tonight Show” predecessor Johnny Carson that hosting the Oscars was “a no-win situation.”

“We look like two Irish aunts,” Leary joked after Fallon brought out a side-by-side photo of the two stars, who are third cousins. “We look like sisters, that’s what we look like. Two old sisters.”

Conan O'Brien impressed co-star Rose Byrne in 'If I Had Legs I'd Kick You,' a departure from the late-night legend's normal work.

"If I Had Legs I'd Kick You" premiered at Sundance 2025. The brutal film, starring Rose Byrne, features Conan O'Brien shifting into a dramatic role.
