It marks his first appearance on the show since he left for a brief stint on The Tonight Show. It comes a year after he made his guest debut on that show, which is now hosted by Jimmy Fallon.
The move means that all three former Late Night hosts – O'Brien, Fallon and David Letterman – will have appeared on Late Night with Seth Meyers.
Meyers teased O'Brien's appearance at last week's FYC event in LA with The Studio's Ike Barinholz.
'I've spoken to this person, and I think it will happen soon. They've expressed their desire to do it. There's only been four of us that have done this on NBC and I'm lucky enough to have had [David] Letterman on and I've been lucky enough to have had [Jimmy] Fallon on. I would love to have Conan back,' Meyers said.
Ask and answered.
O'Brien reminisced about his time on Late Night when he appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. 'It's weird to come back; I haven't been in this building for such a long time. I haven't been on this floor in forever. You have strange memories. I was here for 16 years before we went to LA. When someone else is in your studio, it feels weird,' he said.
O'Brien, who hosted the Oscars earlier this year and is set to return next year, was recently honored with the prestigious Mark Twain Prize for American Humor. Last month, Max launched his travel show Conan O'Brien Must Go where he traveled to Spain, New Zealand and Austria. That show has renewed for a third season.
Late Night with Seth Meyers is produced by Universal Television and Broadway Video with Lorne Michaels as exec producer and Mike Shoemaker as producer.

Remember Angelina Jolie's bombshell leather Versace dress?
Remember when Angelina Jolie wore a plunging black gown to the red carpet of 'Mr. and Mrs. Smith,' redefining the leather look? Twenty years ago, the action-romance blockbuster premiered in June in Los Angeles as rumors of Jolie's real on-set affair with co-star Brad Pitt reached a fever pitch, ushering in a decade of 'Brangelina' as a tabloid fixture. Jolie arrived at the film premiere in a Versace gown with a sheer black neckline trim and lining that billowed from a thigh-high slit as she exited a limo and walked into the Mann Village Theatre in Westwood. With her hair styled in a voluminous blow-out and her jewelry kept simple, the star was continuing a recent streak of polished and glamorous red-carpet appearances — including the prior year's Marilyn Monroe-like white silk Oscars gown — a departure from her earlier dress codes of low-slung pants, muscle tees and gothic gowns. (Pitt, conversely, dressed down for the premiere in jeans, a brown bomber jacket and bleached hair). But the leather Versace gown — a tailored silhouette featuring long vertical seams down the front and an open back with two crisscrossed straps — is now widely considered one of Jolie's best looks. It proved that Jolie could still maintain her edgy, bombshell aura as she elevated her style into the more effortless, minimal aesthetic she's known for today. Her long relationship with Versace has included the green, glittering long-sleeve gown she wore to the 2011 Golden Globes; the statuesque metal mesh dress she arrived in for the Rome premiere of 'The Eternals' in 2021; and the velvet, high-slit silhouette at the 2012 Oscars that immediately became Internet-famous for the way she posed her right leg. By 2005, leather had become a hallmark for Jolie, who often drew attention both for her sex appeal and unpredictable nature. The leather wide-belted low-riders she wore to the 'Tomb Raider' premiere in 2001 set pulses racing, as well as the pair she wore in 2000 for 'Gone in Sixty Seconds,' when she arrived to the premiere with then-husband Billy Bob Thornton, who explicitly spelled out their limo dalliance to reporters in a now-infamous clip. As with her look for the 'Tomb Raider' premiere, Jolie's style choices for 'Mr. and Mrs. Smith' also seemed to be in character long before 'method dressing' became obligatory on the red carpet (or perhaps it is merely a reflection of Jolie's predilection for choosing roles with a similar sense of style). In the latter film, Jane Smith is a dangerous assassin with a closet full of slinky black dresses, including the dominatrix mini she sports while taking out a mark. Jolie's Versace gown was only missing a concealed garter weapon — that we know of — to fit right in. Jolie has returned to leather dresses periodically, including a midi tube dress by Michael Kors for the premiere of 'Inglourious Basterds' in 2009 and a strapless design embellished with micro sequins by Versace for 'Maleficent' in 2014. Though Jolie wasn't the only star to embrace leather on the red carpet in '90s and '00s (see Victoria Beckham and Lenny Kravitz), the ingredients of her style can be seen everywhere today, from Louis Vuitton's structured take on the leather gown, worn by Ayo Edebiri to the 75th Emmy Awards, to Dua Lipa's own knockout Versace moment at the 2024 Brit Awards. Earlier this year, Miley Cyrus wore a crisscross cutout leather dress to the Grammy Awards with a front slit akin to Jolie's 2005 gown, while Florence Pugh seemed to take style notes from Jolie's form-fitting midi looks while promoting 'Thunderbolts' in May. Some stars have taken the BDSM-coded influences even further, with Olivia Rodrigo and Kim Kardashian, among others, opting for eyelet-studded leather gowns and mini dresses by the designer Ludovic de Saint Sernin. But 20 years on, Jolie's dress remains the blueprint.
