Conan could play Impossible Man. From wiki the description is "The character is primarily used for comedy as he is portrayed as a lonely, attention seeking alien that often annoys those around him, especially the Fantastic Four."

[@darkgaara787]

He even has the body type

[@TheVoidofNothing11]

Sounds like Red Dingus!

[@Quintzal]

True

[@TheRedGameboy]

@@TheVoidofNothing11 THAT'S DEFINITELY the name for him. He'll call himself something cool, then some random 11 year olds will call him Red Dingus, while videorecording the insult, then put it on youtube and it goes viral.

[@TheVoidofNothing11]

@@TheRedGameboy Did you see the Red Dingus comic con skit they did? It's hilarious. That's why I commented that impossible man sounds like that.

[@todddepue681]

JLD is totally that friend you'd call when you don't know what to do and she'd have the perfect plan.

[@HarlanDaleAbsher]

Conan should just play himself in the MCU, literally exactly who he is, with the same career, but he also interviews superheroes

[@dustywaynemusic6297]

He voiced a talk show host in The Dark Knight Returns

[@Max-vr2po]

I love Julia's genuine laughter to Conan's joke at 2:08

[@mattmays9063]

No joke, after I replayed that laugh for the 3rd. I came to the comments to talk about Juliia's laugh. She's so witty and funny. Jimmy had her doing that little burst of laughter pretty well in 'The Whisper Challenge.'

[@sstills951]

You texted me earlier and said that you hated Julia's laugh at that moment. Why are you lying for the youtube comment section?

[@justbonez2209]

@@sstills951 ikr, so weird, matt texted me too

reduces to, "I could be punched. people could fly over me." 😂 he's so good at reduction.

[@TrevorCopter]

This clip shows why JLD is an absolute Hollywood pro. She talked Conan into pitching Kevin Fiege and Taylor Swift and how to get in the room with them 😂

[@dws0828]

@@XAJUSS yeah we all like Julia but her family runs one of the most successful food processing and distributors on the planet and has huge connections with French and Russian governments.

[@flyingchong]

Conan doesn’t need to pitch himself to Swift. He’s doing just fine without her as a guest.

[@Nocturne22]

@@flyingchong His daughter wants to meet her, chill out.

[@ClassActJack]

honestly i could totally see conan playing arcade if they ever use him in a marvel movie

[@Will-cq2yo]

YES!! ive said that for years!

[@golden.333]

That would be a dream!!!

[@FlatCarcass]

Looks just like him

[@YesTHATJohnSmith]

😮 I never thought about that, but, you're ALL 100% RIGHT! That'd be MAGNIFICENT!

[@Eskay_The_Evil_Genius]

Werd good call

[@AttilatheThrilla]

Bryan Cranston has handled the television, to movies, to back to television, to back to movies, like the biggest pro ever

[@NoiseJunkieRecords]

Bryan Cranston is just... built different than most people I think.

[@jameswallace5235]

High Laurie also.

[@Alice-ui9oy]

Gillian Anderson came to mind during that part of the conversation as someone who has used her clout as a TV star to break free from traditional tv roles and create some amazing work in different mediums.

[@QNPMEDIA]

Idris Elba too. Crazy careers

[@calisongbird]

@@jameswallace5235 “High” Laurie 😂

[@ScoutJeanLouise]

6:18 Conan’s serious Boston accent

[@rocketRobScott]

Fast forward 10 years and Conan is starring in “The Snark 4: This Snark’s 4 U”

[@scrumbsciouscrispybuns5026]

Conan could just make his own superhero movie. He already got the costume and everything.

[@nextchancenow7153]

Been in ❤ with JLD for decades. She’s the best. Pure comedic instinct.

[@stanny491]

5:22 Conan had to take a look at his notes to remember Falcon and the Winter Soldier 😂

[@jameswallace5235]

I think most of us would prefer not to remember it.

[@TheNova5]

Nice! Thunderbolts is in pre-production which and she said she will be filming for a while with a lot of big names. Yay so Valentina will have a longer presence in the film 💕

[@comicsauniversalalliance8669]

As a Julia Louis-Dreyfus fan, love it. As a Marvel fan, she just gave some spoilers lol, so love that too. "Shooting a lot of scenes in June, and a lot of fancy people"....hmmm, okay Julia, well played, well played indeed.

[@MatthewB497]

He got real Boston for a second there lol. 6:17

[@showmethedickens]

Sona's face at 4:42 amuses me

[@actdimensions]

That's exactly what MCU needs in its struggling phase. The FLAMING C!!!

[@Yanni75]

Yes, the Flamin C. Who's an alternate of Conan O'Brien in the multiverse. A superhero during the day, and long-time host of the Tonight Show at prime time.

[@Quintzal]

Plastic Man would be a great fit for Conan. They even share a last name. (Eel O'Brian)

[@jameswallace5235]

Ben Schwartz (Jean-Ralphio from Parks & Rec, voice of Sonic) would be the perfect Plasitc Man.

[@Yanni75]

Conan should get a cameo in Antman 4, and then he can invite Paul Rudd back and show _him_ a surprise clip of Mac and me.

[@rangers11ization]

I can definitely see conan playing a hot dog vendor in the fantastic 4. "Would you like some extra relish Mr.Fantastic?"

[@emilianoo.1596]

Both her co-stars from The New Adventures of Old Christine (ie, Clark Gregg & Hamish Linklater) are in the Marvel Universe so this is not surprising at all.

[@vorpled]

Sona could definitely be a great henchman.

[@Mczzin]

About the first topic, it's amazing how the internet gives job opportunities to people that would not have or or may have lost it. There's this youtuber that I watch and he was cancelled in 2020, but his followers didn't believe any of the accussations (which ended up being not true). He kept making videos and then switched to twitxh and podcasts and still has an amazing audience. If he were in hands of tv networks, he probably would've been fired, unemployable and disappeared. But he is his own boss in this platforms and he found out people still wanted to listen to him.

[@willbearheart1356]

"Okay. Well, fine. I can't help you." 🤣🤣🤣 6:37

[@MissInformation773]

Conan would make a brilliant Batman’s joker. ❤

[@davidlyons2361]

U the man Conan Happy birthday from Boston, big fan I'm half Irish n half Trinidadian.

[@Sam-el2we]

Conan could play himself, interviewing one of the heroes

[@lachauntiswashington231]

I want to see all of them in a movie together. I would watch that 😂

[@LilTy702]

As an mcu fan I’d love to see conan come in, probably just for a cameo or something, or a bit role, but Matt hit it on the money conan would be an amazing plastic man if they were looking for someone old

[@surfgator8294]

Conan would be perfect as an old Jimmy Olsen.

[@nomisukeindustries]

All kidding aside, people will look back on this as the "audition tape" for Conan's entry into the MCU. Years from now they will say, "And it all started with a podcast..."

[@issacrodriguez91]

I can see how Julia and Jerry get along, she's a lil passive aggressive and so is Jerry. But Jerry takes the cake, that's their common bond.

[@VnayKarr]

Coco... The herooo

[@emiliodimitri419]

A mcu movie with Conan as the main villan and Jordan as super hero would be dope!

[@NickelAntonius]

Conan could be Stilt-Man. Imagine the savings on the CGI budget.

[@undevelopmentteam]

I want to see Conan as a Super Hero now

[@PhilMachi]

Conan would be an amazing Booster Gold! He's literally perfect for the role!

[@LinkMasterRated]

Ahhh!!! Thunderbolts and Captain America nWO!!!!

[@djwragg3]

I immediately thought of the villain Arcade as the perfect MCU role for Conan!

[@TheCrankyTechnician]

Good topic. Even back in the 00s, you were either on TV or in movies, but not both. I think a major change in mindset can be attributed to Kevin Spacey accepting to star in "House of Cards". That was a game changer. You had this A List actor playing in a TV show

[@NIGHTGUYRYAN]

CONAN AS MOJO! its a grotesque transformation, but conan is so down to clown it would be great fun!!

[@ShartimusPrime]

Conan could be Mojo after they role out the X-Men. 👍🏽 CG his face and his voice and acting for it would be perfect!!

[@TheChupacabra]

They say when in the editing booth - always go out on a high note. Like here, when Conan deflates like a balloon

[@its3Dinmymind]

Conan would be great as the xmen villain Arcade.

[@elizabethdalton-jandreau5588]

Plastic Man!!! Matt called it! 😅 Haven't thought about that comic in ages...

[@ColinFilm]

I, for one, can't wait for the Marvel Conan Universe.

[@Eskay_The_Evil_Genius]

He could make an interesting Mr Sinister.

[@bmla88]

This podcast should be called: Conan needs a friend to listen to him talk.

[@HarlanDaleAbsher]

Seeing Julia in the Marvel cinematic universe was a surprise to be sure, but a welcome one

[@aliceabc]

Looooooove Julia as Contessa Valentina! I can't wait for Thunderbolts!!!

[@bbearhug]

Conan could def be in Deadpool!

[@calebclunie4001]

Julia was, in the film "Deconstructing Harry".

[@MrEffdot]

Conan O'Brien would be great as Ralph Dibney, The Elongated Man!

[@qcrew2938]

He has to play MOLECULO...… THE MOLECULAR MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@tylerhackner9731]

Love her and marvel

[@JAbell1966]

I think people forget that Gary Shandling was one of the MCU's Big Bads. Conan could totally do it.

[@odradekk]

“Let me tell you something…” 😅

[@ds9908]

Omigod if I could not love her more

[@CrispyCream602]

I could see Conan playing Mad Hatter, Clay Face or The Ventriloquist because his personality

[@JunkerDC]

I'm always a extra in movies its so great cause it so horrable in a good way you would love it Konan.

[@flyingchong]

Some people kept commenting Conan as Arcade. I'm not too familiar with that character, so when I looked him up just now I was like OMG that IS Conan geez!!! So the Flaming C in the DCU and Arcade in the MCU. Make it happen, James and Kevin! And hope you had a good 60th, Daddy Coco 🔥🎢🧡

[@flyingchong]

Marvel and DC are already awesome, and they would be even more so with Daddy Coco in both of them. So if Daddy Kevin Feige and Daddy James Gunn see this, please make it happen 🥺🥺🥺

[@mysterio1570]

I just said the same thing. It’s perfect casting no joke.

[@THECAR99]

Flaming C in MCU

[@idanlewenhoff2295]

Conan to be the new kang would be amazing just look how much people loved him when he came to comic con

[@ethgratz2186]

The idea at the end is like something from Seinfeld.

[@Carfeu]

Conan as Pale Man

[@aka.radstatic]

Make him a the Watcher of 616 and he just has commentary on everything just as he is.

[@carstenf279]

4:40 Conan could be a tremendous Batman villain - "Redface" (is that mean?)

[@strumcrystrum]

Conan should be Arcade!

[@noellenn2122]

If Conan can get Billie Eilish and Finneas, surely then Conan shouldn’t have trouble getting Swift.

[@louschwick7301]

Jonathan? Because that's likelier than the other one

[@BimBamZimZam]

Yeah, but you didn't take into consideration how far her head is up her own ass

[@flyingchong]

Conan doesn’t need Swift. He’s doing just fine.

[@nathansheldahl]

Do there’s a good chance she’s a fan of his. If I were him I would have his feelers out there check if she is from back in the day.

[@rc653]

Comedians are the answer to positivity in life. If only they can have the power to entice troubled individuals to laugh more often, the world would be a much friendlier place. Sadly, that isn't the case in my city.

[@fightins1]

I saw Connan on a commercial for sulwhasoo

[@calebclunie4001]

"The Flaming C", with his sidekick "Snark", versus the vile "Flaylor Snitch"!

[@cheneyrobert]

[@donelltarver7371]

The Veep ❤❤❤ 😍😍😍

[@soran27]

CAST HIM AS BIG WHEEL

[@SmolFrogge]

Conan as Plastic Man would be Detective Comics. Get yo act together Gourley lol

[@foxhound13]

Conan please stay with DC. I want to see The Flaming C in dc more. Plus my boys been enjoying seeing you in their Lego Batman games.

[@AndrewSnarls]

Conan can be the Rob Schneider of the MCU.... "You can do it!"

[@harrisonmckinney7659]

Isn’t Conan the voice of the late night host in the animated The Killing Joke?

[@ronehlert5976]

Conan, whoever dressed you today... Let them keep doin it. You look great today.

[@johnathansouza896]

Conan looks a little like the 2000's Senator Kelly's actor, Bruce Davison.

[@psyrolz1626]

You already got the best superhero persona of them all: The Flamming C! You dont need Marvel or DC.

[@calebclunie4001]

He could be, a defendant, on "She Hulk".

[@colinmclaughlin9047]

Conan would be a fantastic Ghost Rider. No CGI needed.

[@HarlanDaleAbsher]

I really get what he's saying at the beginning, I've never cared about fame, I've never cared about being in movies, even though I was an actor in theater as a kid, I've always just wanted to create and entertain people and even if it means people laughing at me instead of with me, at least they're watching

[@cfrend]

"Henry Peter Gyrich" A ginger villain in X-Men. Has real fascist bent and works for the US. Government to oppress superhumans with robot weapons and kidnapping. Perfect character for Conan.

[@MasterChris666]

Haha nice

[@thezx5795]

Damn dude Conan totally could be Plastic man 🤣. Also he has done some voice work for DC before.

[@krisfinley6706]

I'd love it if Taylor actually had a sense of humor and agreed to do a skit with Conan where the "Flailin Snitch" pitch lunch happens, highjinks ensue..

[@fearofaflatearth]

I like how all the old people think the Marvel movies are for the youth but no one young really watches them. Hats off to nerds for pulling this one off

[@chadwickerman]

If Gary Shandling could be in a Marvel movie I don't see why Conan couldn't.

[@nedflanders2943]

"Moleculo, the molecular man!" in the mcu

[@JustinDeSorbo]

Fabricating a pitch for Taylor swift could 100% be a Seinfeld Episode.

[@michaelhallam8252]

He could maybe play Arcade. Though Jesse Eisenberg would be more apt, but he basically played Lex Luthor like Arcade without the giant murder fun house.

[@durban6276]

Rant: one of the reasons CONAF works is Conan abhors a dead air vacuum, but could we please hear JLD talk longer than the time it takes Conan to inhale?

[@mysterio1570]

Conan could play Arcade from the X men villains.

[@MasonKane]

Having Conan as an elder Gokden age Plastic man or Elongated Man is a genius idea.

[@Moekoffee2001]

The only ginger haired comedian to successfully transcend from television to movies was Fozzie Bear

[@redgenerall28]

For some reason I think that Taylor would want to meet Conan

[@NoiseJunkieRecords]

I'm not a big "omg celebrities" person, but those are two who I feel like they're probably pretty cool in real life.
