A new film adaptation of Robert E. Howard' fantasy hero "Kull" is is on the way says Fantasy.fr.Howard created the adventure hero in 1929 and would use the character as inspiration for his more famous follow-up creation "Conan the Barbarian".
Kull grows up with his family in Tiger Valley Atlantis until a flood wipes his clan out.
Another clan bring him up, but he stands up for a woman destined to burn alive and ends up banned from Atlantis.
He sails for the continent and take up the mercenary way. He'll become king, just as Conan will do thousands of years later. Under his influence, Valusia ends up as the most powerful kingdom of the time.
The character's first big screen go was 1997's critically-panned "Kull the Conqueror" starring Kevin Sorbo (pictured)
The Conan films were at least campy fun while Kull was just a bad film. Will the Kull redo be watchable?
