New Conan says hey

The first official picture of the new Conan has been revealed. Be still, my beating (*fart noise*).

So here's your first proper look at Jason Momoa in, er, costume (?) as the new Conan The Barbarian. Thrilling, I'm sure you'll agree. The production design on that ladder in the background is mind-blowing.



I'm not going to beat on this dude (for obvious reasons) and anyone trying to step into a role made famous by Arnold Schwarzenegger is going to come off looking like a limp-dicked dog in comparison, but every time I look at this guy I hear the Baywatch drums in my head. That heroic look into the middle-distance doesn't help, either. "I think I hear someone... drowning!" (*slow-motion wank motion*)
