“Bronan the Barbarian” Props to Vince M/FilmDrunk for the vid (and the joke)
Last month at UFC 132 in Vegas, Goldie did an interview with young actor Jason Momoa between fights. The first season of HBO’s The Game of Thrones had just ended (in which Momoa played Khal Drogo) and promotion for the upcoming Conan the Barbarian was getting underway.
Well, turns out that Momoa is a big UFC fan, and a big Hawaii fan. Definitely a big Conan fan. Also a big fan of getting just a tiny bit twisted and watching some fights. Our kind of guy. Whatever it is that has him so pumped, Momoa was really enthusiastic about pretty much everything that night. The first words out of his mouth set the tone for the whole interview:
Momoa: “Oh man, I’m all messed up right now, man.”
Naw, really?
So our new Conan likes to party a little? Cool with us — Conan is the “work hard, play harder” type. Momoa better kick a whole lot of ass this summer, or Crom will not be pleased. Neither will we, if anyone’s curious.
Here’s Khal Drogo’s Crowning Moment of Badass from Game of Thrones:
And here’s the redband trailer for Conan you don’t see thirty times an hour on Spike:
Make sure you check out FilmDrunk’s write up for a rumor about a possible sequel. That must mean that this one will live up to the beloved original, right?

First off I love this guy!!
I like the way he seems to have fun & let loose.
But by looking at his “Khal Drogo”, Jason means business when he’s at work!
I hope he does as well as “Conan” Too.
While playing Drogo, Jason is almost unreconizable.
I like when he has the extra weight on him. He actually looks older as Drogo.
Overall, he seems too be a cool guy to hang with. Jason reminds me of Christian Bale, with his ability to literally transform into different characters. Each character is completely separate from how Jason look & act on his personal time. Ronon Dex,Drogo & Conan, all look like 3 different people; I’ll definately go see “Conan”
