More on Jason Momoa and Conan the Barbarian

[wraithfodder]

While I think Jared Padalecki on Supernatural is sorta cute, I just cannot see him as Conan the Barbarian. I'm trying to envision him, versus Jason Momoa, swinging a sword. Hmm, nah. Watching Jason in action on Stargate Atlantis with the sword - he's tailor made for the role - although the studios may go with Jared to draw in the Supernatural crowd, but Jared's gonna have to beef up quite a bit if he gets the role.

Anyway, here's the article on Jared

Jared is beefed up way enough. But I agree with you and the others: Jason is just more the type for a barbarian.

Also: I'd prefer to see Jared in a sixth season SPN and would be happy for Jason to get a job in a feature!

Will there be a sixth season SPN? I thought they were ending at five? And yeah, I'd love to see Jason do a feature.

It isn't confirmed, but there are some rumors that Kripke might be giving in sooner or later as he is the one who wanted to end SPN after 5 seasons, but the show still pulls strong numbers for its station. So there is hope =)
