New Conan the Barbarian casted

[disciple]

Lionsgate and Nu Image/Millennium, the two companies behind the Conan reboot, might have found their new Conan -- and he bears striking similarities to the old Conan.

The companies are in talks with a 41-year-old Austrian actor named Roland Kickinger to play the title role that Arnold Schwarzenegger made famous in the 1982 classic "Conan the Barbarian."

Whatever 'look' they decide upon, Arnie's shoes are literally too big to fill.
Better they just leave well enough alone and done.

That's understandable, as Destroyer sucked really bad. They took away all that was good in the first movie (gore and naked women) and made some childish fantasy flick.
