Here is the video from MTV:



I've accepted the role of Khalar Singh," Lang told MTV News when asked about the rumor.

"I have no idea how I'm going to do it," Lang laughed. "First I'm going to find out how I'm going to sound. I'm going to get back on a Mongolian pony and ride like the wind. I'm going to flash my scimitar. I'm going to cut the nuts off Conan and his father."

The casting breakdown for this character is this:

Khalar Singh is in his 40s to 50s, Asian or Middle Eastern, Central Asian, Mongol, Turkish, or Persian, open to all ethnicities; commanding in size and manner, a warlord and formidable warrior, brilliant, cruel, weathered and tanned by the many campaigns he has waged and won. He is driven in his quest to find the Queen of Acheron and has been building an empire to do so.

Thanks to MTV for the info.

Ozy: I really liked him in Avatar and I think he'll do great in Conan!

Wow he's kinda like Mark Strong in a way. You know always being type-casted as villains.

Finally at least some good news from this film. Why can the Conan movie cast a good actor in a lead but not the Cap movie. Everything is backwards these days.

Whether or not Momoa is a good actor, can he pull this off? Not too sure, but I have more hopes for this one now than Captain America, I feel like I have died a little with that crap.

Sorry Leee but Lang would be better suited for Cable in the Deadpool spin-off. He's a versatile actor and we don't need to see him play another villain.


This article should have been titled "Stephen Lang confirmed for Cable in Deadpool spin-off."

LEEE I've been a long time Michael Biehn fan ever since the first Terminator and Aliens. He is such an under used actor in Hollywood, he should be up there with action stars like Bruce Willis.

I think he'd be a great Cable and Stephen Lang would as well.

I was mildly concerned when Mamoa was cast as Conan. Now that I've seen him without the sh@tlocks and without the beard , I think he could actually look like Conan.
When Bob Sapp was cast as a villain I became very concerned.
When Lang was cast , I began to relax again.
Lang was (imo) fricken awesome in Avatar ( and he was pretty good in Public Enemies too ).
I loved the original Conan movie but I soooooooooooooo want this new version to be way cooler.
