Jason Momoa Says Conan the Barbarian remake “turned into a big pile of sh*t.”

Recently, the actor Jason Momoa, who will be featured in forthcoming films such as Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom and Fast X, gave an interview to British GQ, which was subsequently released online.

Other upcoming movies that the actor will be in include Fast X. During the interview, he explored the concept that even though a project may be pleasurable to film, it may not wind up being well-liked due to problems that develop during the post-production phase of the project.

“I’ve been a part of a lot of things that actually awful, and movies where it’s out of your control,” Momoa reportedly said in an interview that he gave to a newspaper. The narrator states that “Conan the Barbarian” was one of those individuals.

It was one of the most significant experiences of my life, but someone else took control of it, and they transformed it into a massive heap of garbage.

The books authored by Robert E. Howard served as the inspiration for the swords-and-sandals fantasy picture that was directed by Marcus Nispel and published in 2011, the same year that the actor made his debut as Khal Drogo on Game of Thrones.

Marcus Nispel is also responsible for directing the movie. The author’s work served as the inspiration for the development of an action film with the same name in 1982. The film starred Arnold Schwarzenegger and went on to make a sequel the following year, in 1984.

Why Jason Momoa says Conan the Barbarian remake is the Biggest Mistake?

Momoa did not go into more explanation about what exactly troubled him with how his depiction of Conan the Barbarian ended. Still, apparently, it would not come as much of a surprise for him to feel that way about how the portrayal turned out.

He did not elaborate. The movie, which had a cast that included Rachel Nichols, Rose McGowan, Stephen Lang, and Ron Perlman, was not a financial success at the box office and had a current approval rating of only 25% on Rotten Tomatoes. The movie was distributed by Lionsgate and starred in it several well-known actors, including:

It is accurate to state that the film review that was published in 2011 in The Hollywood Reporter was not precisely effusive in its appreciation for the movie.

During that period, a critic by the name of Kirk Honeycutt said that the film “had no purpose other than random blood splattering amid scenes of bondage, primitive brutality, and S&M erotica.” The movie is tedious and difficult to understand, and it is not at all apparent who the good people and the evil ones are.
