Beall revealed that the film will, in fact, begin with the image of King Conan sitting on his throne as seen in the closing minutes of the original.
On a related note, Beall also wrote the script for the upcoming The Legend of Conan, a sequel to 1982’s Conan the Barbarian (ignoring the 2011 reboot that coincidentally starred Momoa as the titular Cimmerian).
I’m 11 when my father took me to see Conan the Barbarian which you should never take an 11-year-old kid to.
Some of the most fun action in the movie actually takes place on dry land.”
