James Earl Jones: 11 Great Performances Besides Star Wars

Conan The Barbarian (Thulsa Doom)

In his most iconic pre-Terminator role as the brutish, title hero of 1982’s Conan the Barbarian, Arnold Schwarzenegger seeks revenge on the powerful sorcerer who attacked his village, killed his parents, and forced him into slavery as a young boy, who is played by James Earl Jones. If there is any villainous character from Jones’ repertoire that can rival Darth Vader, it is unquestionably Thulsa Doom, whose commanding, tyrannical presence and literally hypnotic stare make him an intense force to reckoned with, even for Arnold.
