It seems Lionsgate and Nu Image/Millenium Films have indeed aquired the rights to Robert E. Howard’s Conan the Barbarian and plan to make and distribute a new film to be shot in Bulgaria and tentatively scheduled for release in 2009. The third film of the franchise has been in development hell for decades, including a proposed “King Conan” film with Schwarzenegger. No word yet on who will be filling out Arnold’s loincloth in the new film, but the studio has said publically to expect a more faithful adaptation of Howard’s original character. You’ll know more when we do! For you Conan fans, I’ve thrown in some Cimmerian love in the Full Diagnosis.
