Well, the wait is over Conan fans.
Deadline Hollywood has just reported that the barbaric hero will be played by none other than:
Jason Momoa!
It was said that Marcus Nispel, the remake's director, was sold on Momoa, who won over the filmmakers after shooting a few trial scenes. His ability to wield a sword and behave very Schwarzenegger-like dismissed their concerns.

The film is slated to begin filming on May 15th in Bulgaria.
