He doesn&#8217;t looking like a former Mr. Olympia like Arnold Schwarzenegger, but he doesn&#8217;t really need to.</p><p><span id="more-9704"></span>Joining Momoa in the film is Ron Perlman who will play Conan’s father, Stephen Lang who will be villain Khalar Singh, and Rose McGowan who plays a “half-human/half-witch”. I&#8217;m going to reserve too much judgement until we see the first trailer, as it could go either way. Director Marcus Nispel is familiar with this type of genre having directed <strong>Pathfinder</strong>, however his effort can&#8217;t really be considered encouraging. Here&#8217;s hoping the script is decent and isn&#8217;t full of your typical cheesy swords and fantasy dialogue.</p><p><a href="http://nuboyanafilm.com/f/0/56cdc9d59e92b5837c4c3167fb78f601.jpg">Click here</a> to see the large version of Jason Momoa as Conan.</p><p>Read similar posts to <a href="http://filmonic.com/jason-momoa-as-conan">First look at Jason Momoa as Conan</a> on <a href="http://filmonic.com">Filmonic</a></p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://filmonic.com/jason-momoa-as-conan/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>1</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Stephen Lang joins Conan</title><link>http://filmonic.com/stephen-lang-joins-conan-2011</link> <comments>http://filmonic.com/stephen-lang-joins-conan-2011#comments</comments> <pubDate>Tue, 09 Mar 2010 21:42:24 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Liam Goodwin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Movie News]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Conan]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Jason Momoa]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Marcus Nispel]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Mickey Rourke]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Rachel Nichols]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Stephen Lang]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://filmonic.com/?p=8809</guid> <description><![CDATA[Latino Review got a scoop last week that said Stephen Lang, the guy who casually drank coffee while destroying Hometree, had joined the cast of Conan.

They said he would play the main villian, Khalar Singh, who is described as &#8220;commanding in size and manner, a warlord and formidable warrior, brilliant, cruel, weathered and tanned by the many campaigns he has waged and won. He is driven in his quest to find the Queen of Acheron and has been building an empire to do so.&#8221;</p><p>In a recent interview with <a href="http://splashpage.mtv.com/2010/03/09/stephen-lang-confirms-conan-villain-role/">MTV</a> Lang confirmed he had been cast in <strong>Conan</strong>, and spoke briefly about the cutting off Mickey Rourke&#8217;s genitals.<br /> <span id="more-8809"></span></p><blockquote><p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve accepted the role of Khalar Singh,&#8221; he said. &#8220;I have no idea how I&#8217;m going to do it. First I&#8217;m going to find out how I&#8217;m going to sound. I&#8217;m going to get back on a Mongolian pony and ride like the wind. I&#8217;m going to flash my scimitar. I&#8217;m going to cut the nuts off Conan and his father.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>In other <strong>Conan </strong>news <a href="http://www.latinoreview.com/news/exclusive-rachel-nichols-cast-as-tamara-in-conan-9383">Latino Review</a> also got word that Rachel Nichols (<strong>G.I Joe</strong>) will be playing the female love interest in the film. Her character is called Tamara and she is a &#8220;master of martial arts&#8221; and &#8220;has been trained to be the Queen’s servant, bodyguard and best friend&#8221;. She teams up with Conan to track down Khalar Singh after he captures the Queen of Acheron.</p><p><strong>Conan </strong>begins filming this month in Bulgaria under the direction of Marcus Nispel (Pathfinder) and will be released by Lionsgate sometime in 2011.</p><p>Read similar posts to <a href="http://filmonic.com/stephen-lang-joins-conan-2011">Stephen Lang joins Conan</a> on <a href="http://filmonic.com">Filmonic</a></p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://filmonic.com/stephen-lang-joins-conan-2011/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>2</slash:comments> </item> </channel> </rss>
