Prevost told NBC News that he spoke with his brother just before the election and that they played mobile games like Wordle and Words With Friends to "keep his mind off of life in the real world."

On the awards circuit, the stars of Conclave paid tribute to Pope Francis amid reports of his ailing health due to a respiratory emergency that led to double pneumonia.
