Jason Momoa isn’t holding back while barreling into the “Conan the Barbarian” criticisms.
Over a decade since the reboot film premiered in 2011, Momoa admitted that the movie “really sucked” during an interview with GQ.
“I’ve been a part of a lot of things that really sucked, and movies where it’s out of your hands,” Momoa dished. “‘Conan [the Barbarian’] was one of them. It’s one of the best experiences I had and it [was] taken over and turned into a big pile of shit.”
Momoa starred as the title character first brought to the big screen in Robert E. Howard’s 1982 film with Arnold Schwarzenegger. To prepare for the role, Momoa underwent an intensive six-week training program at a stunt and martial arts academy before even officially signing on for the film. “Bullet Train” director David Leitch and “John Wick” helmer Chad Stahelski helped Momoa gain over 10 pounds of muscle to become Conan.
