After a long time with host Jimmy Kimmel, the most prestigious film award on the planet - Oscar 2025 will welcome a new but also very familiar face to the audience: comedian and veteran host Conan O'Brien.

With his brilliant sense of humor, deep love of cinema and extensive experience in live television, Mr. O'Brien, 61, is expected to bring a breath of fresh air to the biggest movie event of the year, which will air live on ABC on March 2, 2025.

Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences CEO Bill Kramer and Academy President Janet Yang both called Conan O'Brien "the perfect person to take our global celebration of cinema to the next level." In an official statement, they said: "His incredible ability to connect with audiences will unite viewers around the world to celebrate this year's best films and filmmakers - something the Oscars do best."

The 2025 Oscars promise to be more than just a celebration of cinema, it will be a night to remember, one where the talent and emotion of major films converge, hosted by a host with unmatched style.

This will be Mr. O'Brien's first time hosting the Oscars, but with his extensive experience hosting prestigious events such as the Emmy Awards (2002, 2006) and the White House Correspondents' Association dinner (1995, 2013), he has proven that he is fully capable of handling this big stage.

O'Brien is not only a host, but also an icon of American comedy. His name is associated with famous late-night shows such as "Late Night with Conan O'Brien", "The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien" or "Conan".

Before entering the world of the spotlight, Conan O'Brien was a brilliant writer for classic TV shows such as "Saturday Night Live" and "The Simpsons". He is also a five-time Emmy Award winner.
