The Suicide Squad.
This is a big movie, a big movie that you're going to be in.
And it is very secretive.
You are sworn to secrecy.
You can't tell anybody about the movie?
Yes. I was told nothing about it.
They told me the name of my character,
so I just started Googling, it's Javelin
Javelin?
[Flula] Yeah
We have a picture here of Javelin.
[Flula] Oh, great.
And um this is Javelin right here.
[Flula] Ooh, smokey Jones. Hello!
Okay and uh, now Javelin, is this, am I correct?
I don't know what his super power is, but like all heroes
he must have a special ability.
Javelin. What can you, can you tell us anything about him?
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
He is a former German Olympic Javelin thrower.
He's very much athletic.
He likes to be rude and evil and he has a very huge...
Javelin.
Yeah.
(audience laughing)
Yeah. So in this part, you, you're required to
throw a javelin I'm guessing or use a javelin.
I was not certain what I was supposed to be doing
as this Javelin person,
so I just started Googling all of the things of javelin.
There's a band called Javelin,
so I was like listening to the music of Javelin
Guess what? That feels unnecessary.
Oh, I don't know. Y'know? potato patootie.
And I also started a coding in JavaScript.
I just for fun, I made a website.
Again?
It has a forum
Again, I wish you had spoken to the director.
He probably could have saved you some time.
But why, why ask?
Just do. You know?
Okay, did you travel to Java?
Is, did you go to Java?
No, but I Googled photos of it.
[Conan] Okay.
I also, rubbed myself in Havoline
which sounds like javelin and is an oil,
So I thought, why not? Let's do it.
And then also a javelina is an animal.
It's a small or medium sized mammal,
that is also known as the skunk pig.
So I, I, I visited two of those
and we spent some time together.
Okay. Did you ever do anything physical
to prepare for this role?
to the skunk pigs? No.
No, no. What I meant was...
(audience member laughs loudly)
Did you ever practice with an actual javelin?
Cause I would imagine that
if the character's name is Javelin,
you maybe have a javelin.
Yeah, but Javelin... ugh sorry there was a flizzy
Javelin is (indistinct)
Javelin is... it's coming to you
There is a fly! Right...
I got it!
I'm pretty sure I got it.
No, he's here.
Oh, you got him.
Okay. All right.
Oh, my thing is open.
Great theater you have here Flanagan.
What a wonderful place.
Sorry my zipper was exposed.
Okay. Settle down.
Yeah.
I'm curious, did you ever practice
with an actual javelin to prepare for the role of Javelin?
No it's called acting.
(laughing)
Well, clearly, you know, very little bit
about the movie and you've shot the film.
Oh, it's shot, yes, but I've forgotten everything.
You know, it's, if you've seen that film with Tommy,
Tommy Johnson and he's like,
"Hey everyone, what happened? Oh all look at my pen." Pooh
(audience laughing)
Men in Black
Yes!
I got one of your references!
Yeah.
That's a popular movie that people have seen.
Is it true?
(audience laughs)
I don't know.
Flula,
Yes Conan.
I do want to thank you because um I have very fond memory.
All of us remember where we were when the pandemic hit,
when the shutdown happened.
I think, I could be wrong,
I think you were one of my last guests
before the lights went out
and we all went into that 14, 15 month quarantine.
Absolutely. Conan, when it happened, we had our show
and then I felt like that German character
from a Star Wars, Hans?
Hans 'ooloo' (mispronouncing)
It's Hans Solo.
Hans 'ooloo', (mispronouncing). Whatever.
And like he's like hanging out with Java man.
And he's like, bye.
Oh and he gets frozen in carbonite.
Yeah and in the carbon boy.
And then after some months unfreeze
and now this is my first time speaking
to humans again Conan.
Yeah.
[Flula] So I'm like...
It's Conan,
Yeah, what?
Conan.
What did I say then?
You put an umlaut over the, you go Künin
Kunin, Künin
No, it's just Conan
Künin sounds cool though.
Well, that's your opinion.
Why do you wear a bandana?
Well, I just did it today.
I, I wanted to, I don't know, break it up a little bit.
And as you know, we wear masks, but here in the theater
I like to have like a bandana
and then what I can do is I can just pull it up
and then look at me, yeah,
I'm a sassy bandit. You know?
Yeah!
And so I've been wearing uh this today
and I just it breaks it up,
It's a little bit of color to have a neckerchief.
I like it, I like it!
Hey, where is the nearest saloon?
Ha, cause I'm a cowboy right?
Yeah!
(audience laughing)
Listen. I Enjoy you very much Flula.
Also, I love you as well.
I didn't say love. I said I enjoy you.
I also have enjoyments of time spend with yeah.
Okay. Um, you're a good guy,
And I want to say thank you in your own native tongue.
Maybe you could tell me how to say that.
(speaking German)
(attempting German)
(speaking German)
And what's 'Danke Schoen'?
Danke Schoen? Oh, that's a song by Freddie Mercury.
He's like in Vegas singing it all the time.
I don't think that's Freddie Mercury
♪ Danke schoen, my darling, danke ♪
(both singing)
[Andy] Wayne Newton
Wayne Newton
Wayne? Oh hello Andy!
Hi Flula. How are you?
Oh yeah it's so great to see you.
How are you doing?
I'm doing fine, thank you.
Wonderful and great to see you as well.
Oh good. Yes, thank you.
You look good in animal prints.
Thank you very much.
This is a javelina print so,
Yeah, call back!
So you did do something physical.
You skin them.
Yeah
(audience laughing)
I know that as we go out to commercial you'll probably
and I plug your project.
[Flula] Gross
You probably want to do some kind of German folk dance
on the way out.
[Flula] Of course.
That's probably something you'd prefer to do.
I would like this, yes.
Yeah, so why don't I begin?
The Suicide Squad is in theaters
and on.. that's, there's no way.. that's, this part
was not a German folk dance.
You'll begin the introduction saying
I'm one of the sexiest Norths Bavarian
male drama DJs.
Hello! How did you think it occurred?
You don't just wake up and do it.
Yeah.
You make it.
Yeah. Okay, go ahead.
The Suicide Squad is in theaters and on HBO max, August 6th.
Loved, love it.
Just everything, everything you're doing,
everything you're bringing I love.
