In the upcoming Conan movie, starring Jason Momoa in the title role, Stephen Lang will play the villainous Khalar Singh. Here's what the actor had to say about how much of the movie will feature the supernatural elements often featured in Robert E. Howard's work on the characters.



"If you read Robert Howard — of course the 'Conan' stories and novellas — magic, supernatural plays a huge, huge part in them: fakirs and magicians and wizards all over the place," Lang told MTV in a recent interview.

"So magic is part of that world. The magic in this film, there's a lot of it and there's a lot of action-magic as well, a lot of magical fighting."

"My fighting is not magical. My fighting is just brutal. There's a low-tech element to this film that I think is just terrific. When you get right down to it, it's people banging away with these swords."
