Few stars have followed a path quite like Jason Momoa’s. Born in Honolulu and raised in Iowa, he explored marine biology and modeling before landing his first acting role in ‘Baywatch Hawaii’ at 19.
Later, his breakthrough as Khal Drogo in ‘Game of Thrones’ led to more major roles such as Aquaman in the DC Extended Universe, Duncan Idaho in ‘Dune’ (2021), and Lobo in ‘Supergirl’ (2026). Momoa has also expanded into writing, directing, and producing, while using his platform to advocate for ocean conservation.
