Conan is an American late-night talk show hosted by Conan O'Brien on TBS. The show features celebrity interviews, comedy sketches, musical performances, and more.
In season 7 episode 29, Conan welcomes three guests: Mark Wahlberg, Elle Fanning, and Judah & the Lion.
Mark Wahlberg is an A-list actor and producer known for his roles in blockbuster movies like The Fighter, Transformers, and The Departed. He sits down with Conan to talk about his new movie Mile 22, in which he plays an elite CIA operative tasked with transporting a valuable asset out of a foreign country. But the conversation quickly turns to Wahlberg's personal life, including his strict workout regimen, his family, and how he finds time to balance his career and his personal life.
Elle Fanning is an up-and-coming actress who has already appeared in over 30 films, including Maleficent, Super 8, and The Neon Demon. She joins Conan to talk about her latest project, Galveston, a 1970s-set crime drama in which she stars as a young woman who teams up with a hitman to seek revenge on her abusers. Fanning discusses the challenges of playing such a complex character and how she navigates the pressures of fame at a young age.
Judah & the Lion is a Nashville-based folk-pop band known for their high-energy live shows and infectious, genre-blending sound. They perform two songs on the show, "Take It All Back" and "Going to Mars," and sit down for a brief interview with Conan. The bandmates discuss their origins, their musical influences, and how they approach songwriting as a collaborative process.
Throughout the episode, Conan delivers his signature brand of irreverent humor and engages with his guests in a free-wheeling conversation that touches on a wide range of topics. Whether he's joking around with Wahlberg about his Boston accent or praising Fanning for her impressive filmography, Conan keeps the energy high and the laughs coming. And with Judah & the Lion providing an upbeat musical backdrop, the episode is a must-watch for fans of comedy, music, and pop culture.
