Jason Momoa as Conan the Babarian

The casting of Jason Momoa split devotees, with many branding him too skinny and inexperienced for the role (an interesting take considering that part was one of Arnie’s first). Now, though, a new image revealing Momoa’s Conan in action has our spines tingling – and no doubt naysayers’ tails between their legs.

Directed by Marcus Nispel, the Lionsgate fantasy action adventure also stars Rachel Nichols, Stephen Lang, Bob Sapp, Leo Howard, Ron Perlman, Said Taghmaoui and Rose McGowan.
