Motion posters — they’re not quite trailers, but they’re not quite still images. They give you a taste of the film’s tone like a poster, but a “feel” for the film like a trailer. If the motion poster for the upcoming Conan film from Lionsgate is any indication, we’re in store for a gory mess of a film that really does justice to the warrior legend that Robert E. Howard created almost eighty years ago. After all, director Marcus Nispel (Pathfinder) tells Empire magazine (who will publish the above NEW image of Conan in its new issue) that “Conan needs to be the kind of guy that grabs a girl’s ass, and he likely gets laid that night. “Yes, that is Conan. Plus, if he’s like the Arnold Schwartzenegger version of Conan he also likes to punch camels in the face when he’s drunk. Anyway, hit “more” to check out the motion poster, featuring Conan standing on a stack of skulls.
Conan The Barbarian is set for a 3D release on August 19 and stars Ron Perlman, Rose McGowan, Rachel Nichols, Stephen Lang, Bob Sapp, Leo Howard, and Jason Momoa as the big man himself.
