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).
While the film was billed as a “dramatic comedy,” critics have dismissed this notion as “false advertising,” stating that the laughs present in the film are few and far between increasingly disturbing moments.
The film stars O’Brien opposite actress Rose Byrne, with the late night host completely doing away with his goofy persona to play a “no-nonsense,” cold therapist, who guides Byrne’s character in her descent.
