On August 1 but 1979, actor Jason Momoa was born in Honolulu, Hawaii . From a young age he lived with his mother in Iowa and when he finished high school he moved back to Hawaii and took his first steps in the world of acting.
His height of 1.93 meters and his well-worked physique opened up many opportunities in his artistic career from its beginnings. In 1999 he participated in several episodes of the classic series “Baywatch”, participating in the last 3 seasons of the show, called “Baywatch Hawaii” , with a leading role. In 2003 he starred in the spin-off “Baywatch: Hawaiian Wedding”.
From there his career began to grow until finally in 2011 he had his great opportunity in an HBO project . Jason brought the role of Khal Drogo to life in the early seasons of “Game of Thrones” and his fame grew unimaginably, exceeding all expectations of the actor.
Most recently, he portrayed the mighty DC Comics superhero Aquaman in Justice League and his individual feature film called The Character. In addition, Aquaman has already confirmed that it will have a sequel.

Without a doubt, the best thing Jason did on the big screen. His talent was demonstrated and revalidated in this film that he starred as the central character.
Comic fans recognized Momoa as a great Arthur Curry, something that is very difficult to achieve in such a demanding fandom as that of DC.
GAME OF THRONES
He participated only in the first season, and the first episode in the second. However, that was enough for everyone to know his name.
He played the fearsome Khal Drogo, and although we did not understand a single word of everything he said in the entire series, we will always remember him as “blood of my blood”.
