While Aquaman has been known to grow facial hair now and again, he’s traditionally seen as a clean-cut blonde guy, a far cry from the look that we all know from seeing Momoa as Khal Drogo on Game of Thrones.
To start with, the two share significantly more physical characteristics than Momoa does with the more traditional look of Aquaman.
It would seem that when Snyder explained his vision of the sort of character that the Justice League version of Aquaman would be, Momoa jumped on board.
It’s not too surprising to hear Jason Momoa tell ET Canada that he thought he would be considered for a role like the intergalactic bounty hunter/hell-raiser Lobo.
