| Arnold and Conan: Behold and Despair |
Will be the very publicized affair and love child that place Arnold Schwarzenegger's comeback profession on hold, very good news or negative for the remake of "Conan the Barbarian," which can be due for release in August?
The remake stars Justin Momoa, a native of Hawaii, who also appears in "Game of Thrones" as the warlord Khal Drago. The original 1982 film was the first big role for Schwarzenegger who came to prominence in the 1976 documentary "Pumping Iron."
Despite the fact that both "Conan" films are sword and sandal epics they couldn't be extra distinct, judging from the trailers beneath. The original John Milius film highlighted the muscle bound actor who would later grow to be generally known as "The Terminator" and governor of California; the new film looks like an effects driven mashup of "Spartacus" and a variety of video games.
The character of Conan was designed by Texas pulp writer Robert E. Howard and 1st appeared in "Weird Tales" magazine in 1932.

The troubled Howard's life was the topic of an acclaimed movie known as "The Whole Wide Globe," which chronicled his relationship with Novalyne Price. He was played by Vincent d'Onfrio, and she was played by Renee Zelwegger.
Watch "The Whole Wide World" trailer beneath as well.
And given that as we're inside the mood, have a look at what looks like the original "Pumping Iron" trailer - with Arnold and Lou Ferrigno competing for the 1975 Mr. Olympia title - also.
