Jason Momoa Officially Cast as Conan The Barbarian!

This just in people… After a fight to the hotness between Twilight’s Kellan Lutz, Stargate Atlantis‘s Jason Momoa and Supernatural‘s Jared Padalecki – The beautiful hunk of man who won the part was Jason Momoa. According to Myspace, a source in Lionsgate said that ” Not only Momoa is the most experienced actor out of the three, but his test was much better than his fellow hotties”.

I am a huge fan of all the Stargates to begin with and Jason Momoa was just the cherry on top. Momoa was Born Joseph Jason Namakaeha Momoa on Aug 1st, 1979 in Honolulu, Hawaii but grew up in Norwalk, Iowa. In 1998 he moved back to Hawaii and started modeling, right before he was discovered and joined the cast of Baywatch Hawaii (1999-2001). In 2005 Jason was cast Ronon Dex in Stargate Atlantis and has stayed with the show until 2009 when the show ended.

Jason Momoa also snagged The Cosby Show’s cutie Lisa Bonet, who was married to musician Lenny Kravitz for 8 years… I guess she really likes those dreads. Bonet gave birth to their first child, a girl named Lola Iolani Momoa, on July 23, 2007. As well as a boy named Nakoa-Wolf Manakauapo Namakaeha Momoa on December 15, 2008.

I wonder if the original 80′s Conan, Arnold Schwarzenegger, will make a guest appearance…
