Damn It! No Kellan For Conan!

Filed under: Kellan Lutz

Ugh! What is going to have to take to get this guy to take his shirt off???

Screw you, universe and Hollywood!

In the worst casting move the studio could have ever made, Kellan Lutz was passed over for the lead role in Conan The Barbarian. Instead, Jason Momoa from Stargate Atlantis has been given the role after the director found him to be very "Schwarzenegger-like."

Your loss, Hollywood. You know what kind of money you would have made off of Twi-Hards seeing this film if you had casted Kellan?

You just lost yourself thousands, some of which would have come from our own pocket!

      Universe?



    2. 2

      I think Jason Momoa is great for the part… plus i think he is hot!!



    3. 3

      I don't know..Jason is pretty fucking hawt. Love his eyes.



    4. 4

      I dont know too much about either of these guys but I can say that pretty much everyone in the Twilight movies, CAN'T ACT. If I had to pick a strong actor from the lot it would be the dad, the vampire doctor. This Kellan guy, all he does is stnad around, walk a little bit, tells the chick I put a stereo in your car happy birthday and that's it. He's a dillweed, all those kids are. Why put a huge character in his hands like CONAN. Not a big Conan fan but its a well known character. I can't justify giving it to him becuase he was in a teeny bopper movie and Perez Hilton wants to suck him off. This other guy, Stargate guy, never heard of him, but if he's been on a long running action sci fi series, I would put my dollar on him being able to read lines, act and kick out the jams on an action scene or two. You're a teenage girl trapped inside a fat mans body Perez, stick with what you know. It certainly isn't isn't action packed guy flicks.

      jason is not only a great actor, but a great guy. im sure the nay-sayers will back down once they see him slay this role!



    6. 6

      Jason Momoa is super hot and it's about damn time he got a big role. Not a bad decision at all. The same people can't be in all the movies! Give someone new a chance!



    7. 7

      THATS BULLSHIT! DAMN Kellan want more Kellan!



    8. 8

      Oh shut up Perez, this guy is hot!! :D



    9. 9

      EWWW perez, must be your gay taste, i prefer the hot tanned, dread lock guy over that blond blue color jock lol



    10. 10

      I don't see either of them being a good fit for the role. Kellan would have to undergo a MAJOR transformation and do some serious bulking up. The other guy is going to have to bulk up too, but at least he looks a little more rough around the edges and not as pretty as Kellan.



    11. 11

      perhaps they wanted to cast based on talent, and not looks. You ever consider that? These twilight actors aren't being taken seriously yet because the movies suck so bad. I'm sure their target audience for the remake is older than 12. Kellan appeals to 12 year old little girls, not grown ups. I guess that makes you a 12 year old girl, Perez!



    12. 12

      Kellan still looks like a BOY, not like a MAN…
      Although he's hot, not in that role IMO. If they casted Kellan, instead of a serious movie, would have looked like TV movie for teens or something.



    13. 13

      I'd rather see Jason in the movie than Kellan. Jason is a better actor for this part in my opinion.



    14. 14

      Love Jason Momoa



    15. 15

      Jason is super, duper hot! He's great for the role. Also, isn't he Lisa Bonet's man. Their children are beautiful!



    16. 16

      Much better casting choice!! Perez get over your teeny booper crushes, these twlight kids can't even fukin act for a role specially like this!!



    17. 17

      Love Momoa & I think he's purrrfect for the role…. I'm totally looking forward to watching him shirtless for 2 hours in the new Conan remake…

      I'm actually shocked that anyone really thinks that the twilight guy could physically pull off Arnold's old role. Kellan is what? 6'1" and 175lbs….. to play Conan the barbarian?? Seriously? That would have been a joke!



    18. 18

      Yea! hello jason is smokin haute! No money lost with this choice:)

      omggg. Jason Momoa is so much hotter!!!

    20. Rynne says – reply to this


      20

      Really? Him?



    21. 21

      Yeah, just what we need. Every favorite character and genre ruined by tweenie bop and gay icons. You are an asshole Perez



    22. 22

      well, if they're trying to make a decent, somewhat-respectable movie they sure as hell won't do it with some sparkly vampire kid.
      conan the barbarian is a MAN, and he needs to be played by someone who's manliness/kickassness has the potential to meet that of arnold schwarzenegger. this kellan kid didn't stand a chance

    23. Buzz says – reply to this


      23

      Perez you're an idiot. First, it's "cast" not "casted"- there's no such word. Stop fucking over the youth of America and the world. Second, Kellan is completely wrong for the role- not macho at all. More gay macho.



    24. 24

      OHH WOOOW!! I luv luv luv Jason in this role!! I'm going to have to disagree big time with you on this one Perez. Can't waittttt to see this!



    25. 25

      Jason is WAYYYYYYYY hotter than Kellan! What is the matter with you?? Lisa Bonet is one lucky girl!



    26. 26

      -
      jason momoa is a g o d !!!!!!!
      this guy is conan like, kellan is a little boy
      duh!

    27. 27

      Jason is PERFECT for this part. When you did the story the first time and his picture was up I thought he would get it. KELLEN is cute and all but not the manly Conan type. Sorry Perez.



    28. 28

      I like Kellen but Jason Momoa is PERFECT forthis role…yummmmy!!!!!



    29. 29

      -
      that Kellan loser couldn't get the role if it was a third rate gay porn version of Conan - then again, if Fatboy cast movies they'd ALL look like that
      -
      the kid looks like he is missing a chromosome or two, though Fatboy strikes me as the type who would molest retards
      -



    30. 30

      "Casted?" Does anyone proofread this stuff?



    31. 31

      Jason Momoa is amazing!!! So glad that he is getting a big role. He totally deserves it!!!



    32. 32

      Jason is BEYOND PERFECT for this part - Kellan….not so much.

    33. Mikta says – reply to this


      33

      awesome! loved Jason in SGA hes a great actor!



    34. 34

      oh screw you Perez the world doesn't revolve around stupid Twilight…Jason Momoa is too hot for words-he out-hots Kellen Luzer any day.

    35. Buzz says – reply to this


      35

      Perez *wishes* he looked like Kellan i.e. looking like a guy missing a couple of chromosomes would be a step up.



    36. 36

      Ugh. Could they have possibly picked a more ugly man? Well, they could have picked David Beckham. He's far more unattractive.



    37. 37

      PEREZ Please that Kellan Lutz guy has a weird face. JASON MOMOA IS WAYY HOTTER AND A BETTER ACTOR. TEAM JASON MOMOA!!!



    38. 38

      Jason is a way better choice than Kellan. You're such a fucking pervert Perez. I know for a fact that none of the Twilight "stars" are really capable of doing a great acting job. Twi-hards all deserve to be locked up in one big room, and you Perez, you need to be shot.



    39. 39

      Uh..you think the preteen "Oooh! Vampires sparkle and shop at Old Navy!" crowd would actually go to a Conan film? Maybe Conan could sulk around the woods, waiting for seventeen year old girls to find him? No! Wait! How about everytime Conan gets cut in battle, instead of blood…sparkles! And rainbow dust! And he could ride around on one of the My Little Ponies!



    40. 40

      You predicting that they will lose money is a sure sign it will be a hit. You know fuck all about what the public wants as evidenced by your Avatar predictions. You'd better make another video begging to be loved, lmao, you pathetic and lonely pedo.



    41. 41

      Love the idea of putting someone with some color as the lead. Being mixed myself you just don't see it enough. The former model also fits Conan's description better than both Arnold and Kellan. He actually looked liked a way hunkier version of Taylor Lautner in his Baywatch days. Dang, Lisa Bonet is one lucky baby momma!



    42. 42

      Jason is the perfect choice! Is a good actor and he's super hot in a MANLY way. Perez just because your favourite wasn't chosen doesn't mean you have to talk shit about the actor that was.



    43. 43

      he's fucking delish! I'd see that film just for the eye candy alone :P



    44. 44

      i'm pretty sure they aren't going to lose money just because kellan lutz isn't in it. you are an idiot.
      p.s– jason mamoa is BEAUTIFUL and sexy. I'd take him over K.L anyday.



    45. 45

      Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Grow up Mario.



    46. 46

      Gee Perez, perhaps they decided to cast someone who could ACTUALLY ACT! Not just jerk-candy for buttboys like you.



    47. 47

      not really kellan might be pretty kinda but his acting is mediocre. no loss your dick is just mad



    48. 48

      Jason physical attributions are more in tune with those of the character. Kellan is just too much of a pretty boy to look barbarian. Twi Hard fans aren't the only people that go to the movies Perez….



    49. 49

      Isn't Jason Mr. Lisa Bonet?



    50. 50

      Jason Momoa is hottttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt!



    51. 51

      Kellan is way hott than jason



    52. 52

      Jason is a much better choice! I'm so excited. I miss SG Atlantis.



    53. 53

      You need your eyes checked Perez! Jason is beautiful and his body is sick. Check him out of Stargate Atlantis on the SYFY channel, and Johnson Family Vacation with Vanessa Williams, Lil Bow Wow and Solange Knowles.



    54. 54

      Now I don't have to bother seeing the movie. It will flop I'm predicting.



    55. 55

      Kellan is hott i wish he got the job.



    56. 56

      That guy is hot but you're right, twihards would go in droves to see this if Kellan were starring.



    57. 57

      I don't think it's the worst choice, maybe they just want a good movie and chose the best actor. We all know Kellan from Twilight, we just know he is big, that's all! I haven't seen him act!!! In 90210 he was sooooo bad!



    58. 58

      Kellan looks like a pretty boy who would bring shame to the role that Ah-nold created.

      Jason…now that's a conqueror that I can get behind.

      If I liked dudes. Which I don't.



    59. 59

      Stupid,stupid move.. Jason looks as ugly as fuck..



    60. 60

      either way its shit. they should have stayed with roland kickanger



    61. 61

      Umm, are you fuckin' kidding me? Have you seen this dude w/o his shirt? He's more realistic as a "barbarian" then some roid-rager.

      Oh man, you missed the mark on this one . . . BIG TIME.

      Question is, will he still be able to do that HBO series now? (here he plays a –gasp–barbarian)… :)



    62. 62

      Perez-obviously you've never seen SGA. Not only is Jason smoldering hot, he's got an awesome body and is a great actor. He's got the tough, kick ass thing down which is great for this role. Why don't you get more informed and maybe watch a repeat episode of SGA before you open your big mouth.

    63. ohboy says – reply to this


      63

      Sorry Perez-y Poo, have to go with Hollywood on this one. Kellan would have ruined it…Jason Momoa is THE PERSON for this role…didn't you catch his brooding hot awesomeness in SG-Atlantis?? I think you would have been in love.



    64. 64

      I think your wrong on this one Perez. Jason is the man.



    65. 65

      i think they made the right decision



    66. 66

      Perez, what are you 14 stop drooling over teenie boppers, Jason Momoa is amazing!!! So glad that he is getting a big role. Thank god Kellan did not get the role, he is a horrible actor, he could not act himself out of a paper bag. He is busy hanging out with his best friend Samantha Ronson enough said.



    67. 67

      ARE YOU ON CRACK PEREZ??? KELLAN IS UGLY SHIT AND A COMPLETE BUTTERFACE!!! JASON IS HOT AND IS ACTUALLY A GOOD ACTOR!!! FUCK YOU!



    68. 68

      I love Jason Momoa. He will do good. Kellan is awesome but has acted in far less roles than Jason.



    69. 69

      jason momoa is the second hottest dude in hollywood- right after JD, damn he's yum!



    70. 70

      Jason Momoa is gorgeous and the best choice to play the lead role. He's way hotter than Kellan Lutz!!



    71. 71

      I know I'll be watching this now.



    72. 72

      Kellan would have been hotter. Seriously I would have gone seen it.



    73. 73

      This is the best choice ever. He can actually act unlike, well, any of the actors on Twilight, and he is a thousand times manlier and hotter. Wicked choice, I'll actually go and see this now.



    74. 74

      I'm sorry. I think Jason was the better choice. Kellan is not a good actor. He had only one line to deliver in New Moon and it was flat. Sorry Kellan…..but you are cute…but looks only gets you so far.



    75. 75

      Jason Momoa is PERFECT for Conan; that Polynesian thing is exactly what will make him the best Conan.



    76. 76

      Jason Momoa is sexier than Kellan ever will be. He's also the better actor.



    77. 77

      Hell ya Jason Momoa is awesome think he'll be great.



    78. 78

      i think this is the perfect guy for the role. hes a good actor



    79. 79

      i was totally for all three of those guys, if all three of them were in a movie, i would die. but i love jason momoa, hes definately hot. plus i think you underestimate the stargate fans.



    80. 80

      YESSSSSS JASON GOT THE PART!!!!!!!!!!!



    81. 81

      I dunno, though I do like Kellan…Jasons pretty hot too.



    82. 82

      Kellan is comfortable the way he is! Chillax Perez!



    83. 83

      Jason Momoa is amazing, I can not agree with ya, he is hot! OK, Kellan was in BH90210 and the Twi-Hards… but still, Jason is better



    84. 84

      I am definitely a fan of Kellan. But did you guys ever see Jason on Baywatch Hawaii! Holy Shit! I had a HUGE crush! He is awesome and I am totally satisfied with the choice.



    85. 85

      I guarantee you that there at more 'Gaters out there than there are Twi-hards, hands down. The Stargate franchise (the Stargate movie, Stargate SG-1 original series, the Stargate The Ark of Truth movie, the Stargate Continuum movie, the Stargate Infinity series [Twilight may have a manga, but Stargate has a cartoon!], the Stargate Atlantis spin off series, the Stargate Universe spin off series, and the soon to be released Stargate Extinction and Stargate Revolution movies) is huge, more than Twilight will ever be. It's almost of the level on Star Trek. 'Gaters love Stargate just as much as Trekkies love Star Trek. In addition to TV series and movies, the Stargate franchise has expanded into other media, including books, video games, and comic books. Stargate SG-1 was the longest running science fiction series in history. I mean, come on, how many series get TWO spin offs, while still being WILDLY successfull? Stargate has much more to offer than just a couple of pale, good looking boys & one horribly twitchy & stuttering excuse for an actress.



    86. 86

      As for Jason Momoa, it's known that when they were casting for the roll of Ronan Dex, they went through a slew of actors, and has almost given up hope until they saw Jason's audition tape and right away knew that they had found the actor with the physical presence and the acting ability necessary. And hey, he started off at eye candy on Baywatch. He definitely has the body to pull off Conan. So, all in all, Perez, don't mess with a 'Gater.



    87. 87

      Jason Momoa is smokin hot! I don't know why you have to be a hater.



    88. 88

      I'm buying my ticket right now! Jason is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hotter than Kellan!
