It's official. Stargate Atlantis trumps Twilight.

Fanboy fave Jason Momoa landed the title role in the Conan the Barbarian reboot over Twi-harder Kellan Lutz. Apparently, the filmmakers thought Lisa Bonet's baby daddy would have a bit more box-office muscle than AnnaLynne McCord's sometimes paramour. But that doesn't mean we have to like it.

In case you forgot, Arnold Schwarzenegger originated the role of the savage warrior in the 1982 comic book-based film. The new version begins shooting in mid-March in Bulgaria.

But don't worry too much about Kellan! He has those Calvin Klein underwear ads coming out next month and a little movie (or two) called Breaking Dawn to shoot starting later this year.
