Oscars 2026 recap: See all the winners and best moments

Conan O'Brien, who's hosting the 2026 Oscars for the second year, opened up about returning to the helm for the second year in a row and what he has planned for the ceremony.

"I'm chill, because we've been working really hard. We have a lot of fun ideas," O'Brien told ABC News' Lara Spencer in an interview that aired Thursday on "Good Morning America."

"It doesn't mean a million things won't go wrong or sideways between now and the actual show, but that can be a challenge too," he continued, adding that it's "always a running battle up until the moment the Oscars begins."
