"They just hired a fantastic writer/director who did Tom Cruise's last four movies. They just hired [Christopher McQuarrie] to write and direct King Conan. He added that the part will be written to be "age-appropriate," where he will "still go in there and kick some ass, but it will be different.""
"With King Conan, it's a great old story that Conan was forty years as King, and now he gets forced out of the kingdom, and there's conflict, of course, but somehow he comes back, and there's all kinds of madness, violence, magic, and creatures and stuff like that. And now, of course, there [are] all kinds of special effects."
"FOX Studios has kind of rediscovered 'Arnold.' They've come to me and said, 'We want you to do Predator, we just got a script for you to do Commando 2.'"
Arnold Schwarzenegger confirmed his return to the Conan franchise with a new film called King Conan, directed and written by Christopher McQuarrie, known for his work on recent Mission: Impossible films. FOX Studios is financing the project. The story follows an older Conan who ruled as king for forty years before being forced from his kingdom, leading to conflict and his eventual return involving magic, creatures, and violence. Schwarzenegger emphasized the role will be age-appropriate while still featuring action sequences. He also discussed potential returns to the Predator and Commando franchises, noting FOX Studios has renewed interest in his involvement across multiple projects.
