Actor Jason Momoa had to spend a lot of time in the gym to look the part as Conan but some of his other habits already mark him out as a bit of a barbarian in today's modern world.

The Game Of Thrones ac♔tor admits he doesn't own a TV, mobile phone or computer.

“A lot of people ask that question, 'Do you like TV?' and we don't actually own a TV. People normally have a cell ph𝓡one, they have email, they have computers, they have a TV🍒. And I don't have any of them. In these times that's considered barbaric to a civilised world,” Momoa told TotalFilm.com.

One technology he does admit still gives him a thrill is🌱 the flickering light on a cinema screen.

“I guess if I had a home entertainment system that was like a screening room it might be different but I love going to theatres. It's a communal thing and you go there with likಞe-minded people to see something which you love,” he says.

“I get my popcorn and my hot tamales and I lo🎃ve when the lights go down and I watch the previews. To me thaꩵt's my tradition, that's my childhood. That's when I escaped and went into different worlds.”

Conan The Barbarian opens 24 August 2011 in UK cinemas.
