The director Marcus Nispel knew right away that he had the right guy for the role, but he had to convince the studio. So Nispel shelled out his own money to make a test reel of Jason Momoa slashing plants while wearing Conan-like garbs.
I recently saw the movie and I'll say this, Jason Momoa was an excellent choice for Conan, but the movie itself is terrible. The first half hour of the film with the young Conan and Ron Perlman was well done, but after that everything outside of Jason's performance is unremarkable. The secondary characters are poorly written, and poorly acted. Rose McGowan was painfully bad, and ruins the character that was very interesting in the first half hour, when played by the younger actress. The fantasy elements just seem completely out of place, and should of been cut in favor of a more reality based story.
