Viewers of the Irish-language soap opera Ros na Rún are in for a surprise later this month when Conan O’Brien makes an appearance in the show’s titular fictional town.
According to the show’s producers, O’Brien plays a feisty balloon delivery man who pays a visit to the local pub where he gets into a heated exchange with its owner, a fan-favorite character named Tadhg.
The former late-night host’s cameo on the soap was taped in January and is featured in his new Max series Conan O’Brien Must Go, which sees him travel to a different foreign country each episode.
O’Brien worked with a linguistics coach to learn the Irish language (also known as Gaeilge), but the results are to be determined. While the soap’s producer, Marion Ní Loingsigh, has described his performance as “a perfect delivery of Gaeilge,” O’Brien himself is bracing us for the worst.
