Rachel Nichols has worked out her own little niche: having chick fights, which she lovingly terms as “dope.” The stunning blonde actress stands 5’10” but is as gentle and open as can be. No wonder they found her to be a great match for the 6’4” Jason Momoa as they co-star in Lionsgate’s Conan the Barbarian revamp. When I sat down with Nichols yesterday afternoon, we explored what it feels like to be a first-timer at Comic-Con, girl fights, the challenges of shooting in Bulgaria, and even the other Rachel Nichols at ESPN. For my full interview transcript and audio, hit the jump.

Before we get the interview going, I want to note that I did make a large gaffe when I mistakenly referred to Nichols’ character in GI Joe as Baroness, instead of Scarlett. Why that occurred may never be known, but Nichols was kind enough to skate past my momentary confusion and I really think we started to hit a nice stride towards the end of the interview. One thing to note is that this Conan film is full of bloodshed and gore. However, it does have an interesting look and feel compared to the original. If you’re interested, look for Conan the Barbarian to be released August 19th. As promised, below you can find the full interview transcript and the audio as well.

Collider: Let’s go ahead and jump into it. How many Cons does this make for you?
Rachel Nichols: How many what does it make?

Cons. Comic-Cons?
Nichols: Oh! See, that’s how you know I’ve never been here before.

Ahhh. See.
Nichols: Because I was like, “Con, what is he talking about Con?” This is my first adventure at Comic-Con. When Star Trek and GI Joe were here, I was working on other stuff and this is my debut at Comic-Con.

Interesting. So are you a fan? Did you ever think about coming here or were you disappointed when you couldn’t come with the other films? Especially with Baroness, she’s such a huge character.
Nichols: I was Scarlett.

It’s not easy to be a barbarian. Stopping by EW’s VIP lounge at Comic-Con one month ahead of Aug. 19?s Conan the Barbarian release, stars Jason Momoa, Stephen Lang, and Rachel Nichols chatted with EW’s Tim Stack about their training schedule. On most days, Momoa had to train for five or six hours. But, he told EW, he didn’t feel like he had to compete with a certain former governor who played Conan the Barbarian back in 1982. “When I read Conan, I don’t see him as this huge bodybuilder,” he said. “You know, he’s a product of his environment … He’s a big cat. He’s a lion.” After the jump, see EW’s interview with the Conan cast, during which they talk about how the film differs from the Arnold Schwarzenegger-headlined original.
