Conan the Barbarian movies have evolved but mostly keep the character's core identity intact. Arnold Schwarzenegger's 1982 adaptation is still considered the best, defining Conan for over 40 years. Newer adaptations like "She Is Conann" take bold risks, offering a unique and successful reinterpretation.

For a character that has been around for almost 100 years, Conan has understandably evolved since his early iterations.

Conan is depicted as a wanderer who encounters numerous fascinating people and monsters in his travels.
