New Pic Of Conan The Barbarian In This Month's Empire

No new Green lantern pics unfortunately, but one brand new image of Jason Momoa as Conan in Marcus Nispel's remake..

Just a low res shot for now I'm afraid, but as soon as a higher res pic becomes available we will update.



From Empire..

Happily he'll(Nispel) be offering a freshly sharpened take on Robert E. Howard's tale of revenge, romance and 'pecs the size of Romford. Nispel has taken the epic John Milius/Arnie adventure, torn up much of the original tale, added 3D, vengeance, a hessian sack worth of effects and the muscular presence of Hawaii-born actor Jason Momoa. "Conan needs to be the kind of guy that grabs a girl's ass, and he likely gets laid that night," Nispel explains.


Many fans anticipated some new Green Lantern pics since Empire were running a story on it, but no such look for now. There may be some in the actual issue, we will find out soon enough. But I'm digging this new pic of Momoa as Conan. I have no idea how he will fare in the role but he certainly looks the part.

Empire are also running stories on X-Men: First Class and our new Superman Henry Cavill so be sure to pick up the latest issue for possible updates.

We haven't heard that much about this for a while now.

It looks great, I think Momoa looks better than Arnie's Conan, even though he's smaller

PS.
He's got great tits

Momoa looks more like Conan than Arnold ever did IMO.

Jason Momoa will do fine as Conan, he;s got the look and built...all the complaints I keep hearing that he looks nothing like Arnie, they want an Arnie 2.0, well sorry there is only one Arnie, just like there is only one Jordan in the NBA...we will never have another Arnie in our life time. Beside from what I read that this new Conan will be a hard "R" with brutal scenes and nudity galor...then Im game.

Can you say...hench?

He definitely 'looks' the part. I haven't seen him act yet...mind you, I'd say the same for Arnie!

He looks more like Conan than anyone else who has ever played the role. Conan wasn't always the biggest dog in the fight, but he was the meanest.

And it looks like his left arm is safe from attack.

Jason Mamoa really looks the part. More so than Arnold did. I just really hope this movie stays true to the original stories by Robert E. Howard. I anticipate though this film is gonna kick lots of ass and cleave some heads!

I HAVE A FEELING THIS CONAN WILL TOTALLY BE AWESOME. SOME PEOPLE THOUGHT JACK NICHOLSON WAS THE JOKER AND THEN HEATH LEDGER TOOK A STAB AT IT IN A WHOLE DIFFERENT WAY AND DID SUCH A AWESOME JOB. THIS IS A NEW CONAN FOR THE NEW AGE, THIS TAKE WILL BE SOMETHING COOL.

i like jason papayas looks,and the fact the movie is rated R,but the 3d bullshit,the fact that they are redoing stuff and we still dont have even a teaser makes me worry.

and here is another movie that is going to bomb at the theatres. The vast majority of mainstream cinema goers are gonna pass over this for far betters movies. I highly doubt they'll be able to make a second one as this probably won't even make enough to pay for the actor's salaries
