Jason Rathbone (???) is a good actor as well. He did a superb job in one Criminal Minds Episode. The Twilight gig gives you visibility but not a chance to make you shine as an actor, IMO.

I hope Jason gets a chance to have both in Conan.

If you don't like to read all of it, read just this :

How do you describe the action level we’re going to see in the Conan movie?

Its old school hard hitting stunt action. Real stunts, not a lot of CG. We did most things practical. The actors stepped it up HUGE and learned some crazy skills. Both Jason [Momoa] and Rachel [Nichols] were ripping it up on "Conan"!

What was it like to work with Rachel Nichols and the rest of the cast, other stunts included?

Rachel is awesome. She was super fun to have on set and game for fighting and riding horses. You will definitely be very surprised when you see her face doing some of the things she was doing. She rocked it out there. Jason was amazing too. He picked up sword work like a pro and he did all his fights. He picks up choreo really fast and put his character completely into it. He was a lot of fun to watch.

Can't wait for the movie!!

Me too. Still wish he was a bit bigger. Conan was suppose to be a big boy. And I hope people give him a honest chance and not try to compare him to Arnold S.
Still... I know hubby and I will be there watching and supporting Jason.

[dragongirl]

I will be there to support him as well Will drag my Cousin as well so she can see the awesomeness of Jason for herself

It's getting ripped to pieces online, especially that new teaser. Lot of doubt cast on Jason Momoa's acting ability.

There's not enough of him in the teaser to judge by I'm more concerned about it being a z-grade movie...

[scifan]

I'm excited for Jason, but kinda worried too. Gotta be positive that Jason will show how awesome he is.

[dragongirl]

Jason is an awesome actor and I hope that he can make the movie a huge hit *fingers crossed*

It is always difficult for anyone to redo a role that was done in the past, especially something like Conan. Rather than see something done the way it was before with someone similar to before I'd prefer to see them take the opportunity to truly renew it - if I want to see an Arnold type person play Conan I might as well just watch the original movie with the original Arnold

I think Jason's acting abilities were on show to his favour in Sateda, Reunion, and Broken Ties, just to name the obvious ones. As a movie to stand alone in it's own right I'm excitedly looking forward to seeing Conan, and sure that Jason will do himself and the role justice.

I think it's his delivery of the dialogue people are poking fun at, it doesn't seem to ring true. It might not be his acting per se, but his ability to do accents. It wasn't really a problem with Ronon because he never really changed it, but it could be here.
