Kellan Lutz Wants to Gain Weight for Conan the Barbarian Role
In an exclusive interview with Marc Malkin of E!, The Twilight Saga hunk Kellan Lutz admits that he is on the final list for the lead role of the remake of Conan the Barbarian. He also revealed that he is also looking forward to gaining weight, presumably in the form of muscles, for the titular warrior made famous by Arnold Schwarzenegger on the big screen.
“It’s something that I’ve been actively going after because I’d die to put the weight back on. I’m tired of playing young; I want to be the big guy that I was.”
Filming for Conan the Barbarian will commence on 15 March 2010 in Bulgaria, and will most probably be wrapped way before the scheduled Breaking Dawn shoot in the fall.

I don’t like Kellan,he only cares about his good looks,he has a great body and that’s what he sells.I like Robert/Kristen so much ’cause they don’t like this HW pr games,they’re private people,who really care about acting.I think that’s the reason they’re being loved by so many people.I wish some people weren’t so superficial.So bare-chested Conan the Barbarian is an ideal role for Kellan…don’t hate me that’s just my opinion.
