Jason Momoa Reveals He Was 'Constantly Crying' While on the 'Aquaman' Set

- December 12, 2018

Aquaman star Jason Momoa revealed that he wasn’t shy about showing his emotions while filming the new DC Comics movie, according to a recent interview the star did with Mirror UK.

“I’m the biggest drama queen on the set. I was constantly crying,” the actor said.

At six-foot, four-inches tall, Momoa isn’t a person most would guess to be the biggest cry baby on set.

“I was raised by a single mother and I’m very connected to my emotions,” he admitted. Momoa left Hawaii with his mother when he was young to move to Iowa.

“I’m not going to normally get hired to play those emotional things – and I’m capable of it,” Momos said. “I’m just trapped in a big, dumb body!”

While his emotions ruled on set, Momoa also endured some physical pain, too. In scenes where Momoa was shown swimming, he actually had to dangle in the air from wires and mimic the act.

“I weigh 240 lbs, I can’t feel my nuts!” he hilariously said about his time spent on the wires.

On top of all that, Momoa was also on a strict diet while filming in order to keep Aquaman’s buff figure up to snuff.

Momoa first played Aquaman in the 2016 movie Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, and reprised his role in the 2017 film Justice League. 2018 brings Aquaman’s first solo movie, out Dec. 21.
