Oscars Security Addresses Concerns About Possible Iran Drone Strike in California

Security is ramping up for the 2026 Oscars amid the Iran war.

On Wednesday (March 11), host Conan O’Brien and members of The Academy rolled out the red carpet outside of the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood ahead of the big event set to take place on Sunday, March 15.

As Hollywood prepares for the Oscars this weekend, security is on heightened alert after the FBI warned California law enforcement about the possibility of a retaliatory drone attack by Iran targeting the West Coast, according to an alert reported by ABC News.
