Dolph Lundgren in Conan Reboot

conan_the_barbarian-poster

 Dolph Lundgren is having one heck of a career comeback!  Anyone from the 80′s will remember him as the Russian terror in Rocky 4. He has been in 14 movies since 2000, most of them direct to DVD, but a majority of them really good. Recently he had a supporting role in Sylvester Stallone’s “Expendables”. Today, MTV reports Lundgren is in negotiations to have a role in the new Conan movie.  Dolph Lundgren said “I’ve talked to the producers about doing something for Conan.”

Awhile ago we had the list of characters that will be in the Conan movie, and LatinoReview had a good idea about what roles he would fit in.

[ CORIN ] He’s in his 30s to 40s, Caucasian, powerfully built, intelligent, graceful, master swordsman, skilled blacksmith, de facto leader of Cimmerians and Conan’s father. He resolves to answer the terrible request of his dying wife and cuts Conan out of her so she can see him. He then shoulders the burden of raising Conan, which proves to be daunting given the boy’s savage nature. Corin teaches his son the meaning of the sword: a hot blade must be cooled and tempered. When Khalar finally corners him and tortures him to death, he shows no regret nor pain, hiding his concern for his son’s safety from the eyes of the enemy. SUPPORTING

[ LUCIUS ] He’s in his 30s, Caucasian, handsome, proud, haughty, lethal, a leader of a Legion of Aquilonian Mercenaries. While attacking Corin and Conan in close quarters, he is thrown into a fiery forge that disfigures him for life. His self-revulsion twists him to the point that years later he takes great pleasure in torturing prisoners. SUPPORTING

[ MARAUDER ]He’s in his 30s to 40s, Caucasian, massively built and brutal, a stone cold killer that takes relish in the killing of the pregnant Islene. His shield bears the emblem of Thoth-Amon. However, his arrogance is his downfall as she, in turn, kills him.

Lundgren is 54 years old, but is a sharp looking guy and would fit in anyone of these roles. The funny thing about this movie is we’re sitting here talking about a supporting cast member for the movie yet we still don’t know who will play CONAN! Any who, we can’t wait to see who jumps on board next.

This room is real, Ben. And that means the treasure is real. We're in the company of some of the most brilliant minds in history because you found what they left behind for us to find, and understood the meaning of it. You did it, Ben, for all of us - your grandfather, and all of us. And I've never been so happy to be proven wrong.
