Tilda Swinton as Conan O’Brien…Hmmm…

59th Berlin Film Festival - International Jury Press Conference

When Conan O’Brien joked in his monologue that HBO could do a melodrama on the NBC late show behind-the-scenes drama and that actress Tilda Swinton (“The Curious Case of Benjamin Button”, “The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian”) should play him.

Movieline’s Kyle Buchanan recently asked Swinton at Sunday if she would play Conan O’Brien and sure enough, Swinton said, “I’ve heard about Conan! I’m so thrilled. I would just be only too happy. Yes, yes, yes, absolutely.”
