Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend · Jodie Foster · 19 Jan 2026 podcast

I have lots of plans.

So as a director, I'm in my hotel room all by myself.

I got lots of plans.

And then I come there and it's raining.

And, you know, the guy I hired to play the priest is, you know, drunk or.

And I'm sorry.

One time you hire me.

But there's it's that meditation of saying like, like, OK, now what?

So what if you know, what if what if the priest was drunk?

Or what if we no longer have a priest because I just fired him?

You know, you start having to have inspiration and making decisions in the moment where you collaborate with 175 people, whatever the energy is that's on the set.

It's not just the actors.

It's also all the people that are doing the various jobs bring their expertise, but also maybe even their past, you know, their relationships with their parents.

Every time a prop master, you know, decides that the character is going to have a shot glass, an Elvis shot glass, it's because they're bringing baggage from their past into it.

And they're saying like, what is true to this character?

I know I'm going to go for the Elvis shot glass.

And so I love that.

I love hearing other voices and then being the person that says, yes, no, yes, no, yes, no.

Yeah.

And I mean, well, the big caveat is you are the last word.
