The still uncast, unwritten Captain America has a director, and it's [drumroll]... Joe Johnston. Best known for helming Jumanji, Jurassic Park 3, and the A.V. Club beloved The Rocketeer, Johnston seems like a fine choice for the project.
Johnston's currently at work on the Benicio Del Toro-starring remake of The Wolf Man, a film once eyed by Brett Ratner. But don't worry about the perpetually employable Rush Hour auteur: He'll be heading up a reboot of Robert E. Howard's Conan character. Choosing the legendary Cimmerian over Beverly Hills Cop IV, Ratner will work from a script by Sahara screenwriters Joshua Oppenheimer and Thomas Dean Donnelly, who are said to be incorporating some of Ratner's ideas into the screenplay. Yay?

Marcus Nispel to direct 'Conan' remake Nu Image/Millennium bringing back barbarian pic
Marcus Nispel has been set by Nu Image/Millennium Films to direct "Conan," ending a nine-year development ordeal to reinvent the Robert E. Howard-created barbarian first immortalized onscreen by Arnold Schwarzenegger in 1982.
Production on the remake is set to start late this year in Bulgaria and South Africa. Nu Image/Millennium is making the film in a co-production with Lionsgate. Avi Lerner and Joe Gatta are producing with Fredrick Malmberg. Malmberg runs Paradox, the company that holds the rights to "Conan" and the other hero franchises in the Howard library.
The film will be the most financially ambitious ever for Lerner, with a script by Thomas Dean Donnelly and Joshua Oppenheimer, whose credits include "Sahara" and "Cowboys and Aliens."
Paradox originally set the project at Warner Bros. but declined to ink a new rights deal after numerous unsuccessful attempts to make it with directors like Larry and Andy Wachowski and Robert Rodriguez. Malmberg then set it with Lerner in a seven-figure deal with strong progress to production stipulations. Lerner flirted with Brett Ratner last year, but the filmmaker could not commit in a timely fashion and Lerner couldn't wait.
That opened the door for Nispel, who'll make "Conan" his third redo, after "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" and "Friday the 13th." For Nispel, "Conan" is a job he has dreamed about since his childhood.
Nispel said he will blend his childhood imaginings of the character with the influence of the famous Conan illustrations by Frank Frazetta, and the influence of such viscerally violent period films as Mel Gibson's "Apocalypto."
"Conan" maintains a following through such ancillary properties as a Dark Horse comicbook series, a vidgame for Xbox 360 and a Funcom/Eidos multiplayer online role-playing game.
Boaz Davidson, George Furla, Henry Winterstern, Trevor Short and Danny Dimfort are executive producers.
Nispel is repped by CAA.

Marcus Nispel is directing Conan Friday The 13th Helmer bags the job
The team behind the new version of Conan have found their man: horror remake specialist Marcus Nispel.
Nu Image/Millenium Films has hired the man who brought us reboots of Friday The 13th and The Texas Chainsaw Masacre to try to make the Conan rre-tooling work after nine years in the development wilderness.
With a script in hand by Thomas Dean Donnelly and Joshua Oppenheimer, Nispel will apparently start shooting in South Africa and Bulgaria later in the year.
Assuming, of course, they lock down an actor to play the lead.
According to the director, it's his childhood dream to bring the Arnie-associated character to the screen and will be blending Frank Frazetta's iconic Conan imagery with the sort of visceral violence seen in Apocalypto.
We just can't help worrying that while he's had some success in his horror work, the last time he tackled period action, Nispel made Pathfinder. Which was, in a word, awful.
We hope to Crom that Conan will be better. |

Jason Momoa is Conan! Stargate actor is the new barbarian...
Those contenders were Jason Momoa from Stargate: Atlantis, Kellan Lutz from Twilight and a mystery third beefcake who was revealed to be Supernatural giant Jared Padalecki.
Well, the contest is over (we don't know if there was a medieval battle involved), and we have a victor.
Yep, it’s Momoa.
Despite reports that Lionsgate were keen for a more “experienced actor”, Momoa seems to have won them over. Apparently his screen test was better than anybody else’s.
Additionally, we hear that Lionsgate have “extended an offer” to Mickey Rourke to play Conan’s father. No confirmation either way yet, but interesting nonetheless.
If you want a chance to check of the new Conan’s chops before making a decision on his casting, you can catch Momoa in new HBO drama Game of Thrones later this year.

'Conan' Actor Chosen Jason Momoa of 'Stargate Atlantis'
Jason Momoa, who plays the dreadlock-wearing Ronon Dex on Stargate Atlantis, is in negotiations to portray Robert E. Howard’s Conan the Barbarian in a new film that Marcus Nispel is directing for Nu Image/Millennium Films. The reboot of cinema’s number one barbarian franchise in which Conan avenges the death of his father and the slaughter of his tribesmen, will begin principal photography in Bulgaria in the middle of March.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, producers of the Conan film had narrowed their choice to Momoa and Kellan Lutz of Twilight before settling on the six foot-four-inch half-Hawaiian, half Iowan actor, who will also be seen in HBO’s adaptation of George R.R. Martin’s A Game of Thrones.

Škrt trailer, ne mogu baš dobit neki dojam iz njega jer ne otkriva puno, al u svakom slučaju me zainteresiralo. |

Captain će biti ok, čini mi se.
Conan katastrofa. Onaj glumac izgleda kao neki villain kojeg bi Conan trebao srediti, no nikako kao Conan. |

Marcus Nispel režira Conana? Siguran sam da će atmosfera Conana biti odlična, živopisne boje i puno krvi... Svidio mi se onomad remake Teksaškog masakra. PRiča tako tako, no atmosfera i režija su mi bili odlični. |

u tom filmu je jedino valjalo dupe jessice biel. a nispel je neinventivno đubre koje radi samo remakeove. ok, postoji taj nenormalni trend recikliranja horora, ali toj ništariji ne mogu oprostiti šta se uvalio u pathfindera i sad u conana. |

slažem se, i s remakeovima i s dupetom :) Pathfinder je bio baš loš, strašno razočaranje.

hmmmm....pa ne izgleda tako strasno, uplasio si me :D ima tih pateticnih elemenata, ali je to izgleda postalo neizbezno.
ako dobro shvatam koncept, radice kao sto je u stripu, ovaj ce film da bude smesten u WWII, pa ce Steve da padne u ledeni okean, pa ce u Avengersima da ga nadju i prikljuce? (basically, da ne ulazim u detalje :D)
ili se to jos ne zna? |
