15 Years of Coverage (2010-2025)
Jason Momoa's audition tape for the popular HBO show Game of Thrones went viral this past weekend. Momoa appeared on the show for 10 episodes as Khal Drogo, and his audition proves that he can go toe-to-toe with any member of the Justice League.
Warner Bros. finally confirmed that Momoa will play Aquaman in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. With his size, physique, and intensity, it's easy to see why he got the role.

Isn't that dance the same dance All Blacks (New Zealand's Rugby Selection) performs before every match?
Yes, it is. Is the Maori Haka (aka War Dance), common between Hawaii and New Zeland cultures.
Thanks for the information! I thought I'd seen this dance before :D
Did you check my post^ here? :D
I did! :D
Alrighty then! :D
Yup, I thought the same thing.
Not to be annoying, but I genuinely think you should boycott audition tapes if they're not released officially. Actors need that private space to be able to find the nerve to come up with new things at the risk of basically being idiots. You can't always audition physically in front of people, purely for scheduling reasons. So you can't avoid tapes being made.
We could lose out on brilliant castings if actors become too self aware even when they're supposed to be in a private environment. Quite a few actors have come out and defended this as well, the same thing goes for set videos if they show very detailed performances (though that's very rare). Just saying... This isn't supposed to be seen, nor judged by other people then filmmakers.
This was officially released. It's one of the Hidden Dragon Eggs on the Blu-Ray and DVD of Game of Thrones.
Thumps up for this !!
Oh ha! Stupid me, I hadn't read that! (Although in general I stand by my point.)
Okay, thanks BMN!:D
Yeah it was a good general statement, just doesn't apply here :)
To me it sounds like: Deh-Shay Deh-Shay Bah-Sah-Rah from the dark knight rises. When the prisoners say he rises XD. I am not a GOT fan so i have no idea what is going on but I am pretty sure that Momoa will kill it as aquaman :D.
Ben's recent photos. He looks pure badass here! :D :v
Link plzzz
What link?
Oh.. Ben's recent pics ??
I post photos can't you see? o.O
Reloaded n got it!! Disqus S#$*#s!!
Ben looks massive!!!
Just imagine in front of this Robert Downey's health! :D Shape vs. No Shape: Darkness Falls. :v
I think he can handle both IronMan and Captain America at the same time! :P
Ben is 6'4 buddy. And he is huge after start built himself for Batman and Bruce Wayne. And that is right. And Batman can take down whole Avengers alone. :D True.
You should go see 'Gone Girl' he looks huge there! (He was starting to build up for Batman v Superman) Besides, Gone Girl is an amazing film! Rosamund Pike must win the Oscar next year! :D
Yeah,during Gone Girl shooting he already starting transform into Batman body. Rosamund may be enjoy the shower scene.
ha ha ha ha xD Comment of the day! LOL xD
If Superman has seen Gone Girl,he'll feel emasculated whether he looks up or down. :D
Henry was ripped in Man of Steel the likes Ben has never been before and Henry is bulky up even more for the new move.
I don't think she can. Oscar chances is not so big for the film but yes it is a very smart film. Intersteller going to destroy Oscars like WB's Gravity did last year.
I hope she gets it. She really deserves it! :D
I really really like this photo of Ben. His suit is so good. Great actually. Looks Bruce Wayne,he also look great too.
Amen
Batman: The Sausage King! :D Give a upvote if you know what i mean! :p
The Louis Vuitton shoes though
In which photo he is with his childs?
And Momoa is even taller than him! They surely cast the big guys for the JLA, even Gal is tall for women standards.
Taller than who? Ben is 6'4. Cavill is 6'1. Taller than Cavill. Fisher is 6'4. Ezra is 5'11. Momoa 6'4. Gadot is 5'9. JL's Batman,Superman,Aquaman,Cyborg is over 6. That is really great area. Avengers line-up by height also funny compared to JL! Martian Manhunter,GL still left. Hawkman too. Wow! Ben,Gadot,Cavill,Momoa,Ezra,Fisher..... :-)
The meters and centimeters we got in the Netherlands are to me clearer than feet and inches. Which means:
Affleck: 1,92m
Cavill: 1,85m
Gadot: 1,78m
Momoa: 1,93m
Fisher: 1,92m
EDIT: just saw Ben is 6'3,5 so I guess this is correct and Momoa is indeed taller.
I forget the Rock. He is 6'5. 1.96m. :-) But he is not JL members. Anti-hero. Can't say 100% villain. You know they can use him before Shazam film. We will see him before Shazam film. That is why they may be announce early he is Black Adam. Black Adam can be in JL 1. Which come in 2017. Shazam come in may be 2018. can see him WW? BVS?
According to IMDb he's 1,93m. However, I don't know why they announced him as Black Adam so soon if Shazam won't arrive 'till 2019... Given the fact that Shazam's powers come from the Greek Gods and Wonder Woman is a demigod... I wouldn't be surprised if Black Adam would be in the Wonder Woman film or even appears in JLA... Find the second part a bit unlikely though.
However it turns out to be, I love that Dwayne Johnson is Black Adam, spot on casting! I think he'll nail the part.
i am almost sure we can see befor Shazam film. May be in JL 1.
When ya think about it...
Why CAN'T Black Adam come before Shazam?
He WAS his predecessor. Hmmm
...
OMG!! He is angry !!
Of course he is, why wouldn't he be, with all the destruction the world engine did to his kingdom...
Batman's anger is more dangerous! He is 'very very very rough' pal in this DCCU!
I think he is replying to atomic man's comment. LOL!!
Atomic Man need a slap from Ben's sausage! That is pretty huge according to Jennifer Garner! :D
Missing Atomic Man? :-)
That guy was not this crazy,but nowdays he is too much! :D
No he isn't.

Is anyone else amazed that we get far more discussion about BvS tidbits than we do about the actual, on-the-air-now Gotham series?
You'd think that somebody would've asked the guy by now. If he's gonna be rocking the blonde hair, or not. The hair color is a small part of Aquaman's backstory, but not that important.
they could give him a dirty blonde hairstyle. That way he could keep his own hair color, but keep the iconic blonde hair at the same time.
OMFG ZACK PLEASE TAKE NOTES
As long as they don't bleach his hair and eyebrows like they did with Chris Hemsworth in the first Thor, I'm satisfied.
I hope he does that little dance when he meets the Justice League.
Everybody will either laugh or shit their tights.
But damn, he was the perfect Lobo.
I'm sure he'll be great as Aquaman but all this tape "proves" is that he has rhythm haha.
So he got to bang that hot white-haired chick, on the show? Interesting.
Note To Self: Binge-watch Game of Thrones, ASAP!
fangirls - has wet their thongs
How are you buddy? After little long time. :-)
going good ,bro... I'm just living the dream in Batman nation
Just follow me here.
In that video, he was doing the Haka, a traditional Maori war chant. The All-Blacks Rugby team in New Zealand does it before every game
I don't see the point of this.
Do you even internet?
Not what I meant. The point of an audition tape is obvious. I don't see the point of this news piece.
A crown for a king (of the sea)...
I think it's trying to communicate. ;)
He's an intense dude.
And it seems he IS gonna be in Batman v Superman after all.

Whoa, imagine him in Far Cry, I would have died (not possible for batarangs though)
No offence but this guy was a part of ruining one of my favorites in the remake of "Conan the barbarian"
Basically old school Arnold Schwarzenegger Conan fan here.Unfortunately even Arnold was a part of Batman & Robin
So he needs to prove himself as Aquaman because that is one difficult character to cast.Lets see
http://stream1.gifsoup.com/...
Conan wasn't Momoa's fault.
How could would he have had to act to save that movie?
He would need acting superpowers to save that production.
I knew someone would catch me out of context there.I only said Jason was "a part of"
not solely responsible for the movies fault.I know he's a good actor.
Sometimes acting also saves a movie and the actors own the role to themselves like
Robert downey as Iron man.Considering the fact that Iron man didnt have great stories but his acting was cool.Similarly Conan was owned by Arnold,Jack Sparrow is owned by Johnny Depp and Joker by Heath Ledger.Its n very difficult to reboot them with new actors.
As for Jason Momoa lot of people worldwide dont know except those who watch Game of Thrones on tv.
So Aquaman is a typical character to play and i wish and sure also that Jason Mamoa will make Aquaman his own.Cheers and thanks for the reply.
Nope, 'tis a war cry of the Maori people (indigenous New Zealanders), as has already been mentioned :)
How does that prove he can go toe to toe with the members of the justice league?
https://www.youtube.com/wat... No, This proves he can go toe to toe with the justice league
