help Kull the Conqueror FAQ
Is Kull the Conqueror connected to the Conan the Barbarian movies?
Yes, indirectly. The project began life as a third Conan film, tentatively Conan the Conqueror, intended for Arnold Schwarzenegger; when he declined, the script was reworked around Robert E. Howard's earlier character Kull, whom Howard created before Conan in the late 1920s.
Who plays Kull and who directed the 1997 movie?
Kevin Sorbo, fresh off his run as the lead in Hercules: The Legendary Journeys, stars as Kull. The film was directed by John Nicolella and released in 1997.
Which Robert E. Howard stories is the Kull movie based on?
It draws mainly on the Kull story "By This Axe I Rule!" and a revised version of it, along with elements of "The Phoenix on the Sword," the first Conan tale, which itself grew out of a rewrite of "By This Axe I Rule!" So the film deliberately mixes Kull and Conan material.
Who is the villain in Kull the Conqueror?
Tia Carrere plays Akivasha, a resurrected ancient sorceress who schemes to take the throne of Valusia. The film flopped with critics and audiences when it came out in 1997, recouping only a fraction of its budget.
