To begin with, Jason Momoa grew up in Norwalk, Iowa. He majored in wildlife biology in the University of Colorado State, however, he returned to his birthplace Hawaii in his last year of college to explore his roots and build connections with his father. Spending time in Hawaii he was accidentally discovered by a fashion designer, and then pursued a career as a model. He was so successful as a model, that in 1999 Momoa was announced as “Hawaii’s Model of the Year”. More, he was invited to host a popular contest “Miss Teen Hawaii USA”. The same year he received a role in the popular television series “Baywatch Hawaii” (1991–2001), and launched his acting career, with his net worth also rising.
Afterwards, he landed roles in television films “Baywatch: Hawaiian Wedding” (2003) and “Tempted” (2003). Momoa was cast in the soap opera “North Shore” (2004–2005) aired on Fox. From 2005 to 2009 he was employed as Ronon Dex regular on the series “Stargate Atlantis”. In 2011 Momoa created the character of Conan, although the remake of the 1982 cult film “Conan the Barbarian” wasn’t as successful as the first film. The reviews were mostly negative and it was the box office flop. Fortunately, he rehabilitated himself as a successful actor playing Khal Drogo in the HBO series “Game of Thrones” (2011–2012), for which Momoa won the CinemaCon Award for Male Rising Star, and together with the ensemble he was nominated for the Screen Actors Guild Award in the category Best Acting Ensemble – Drama.
Moreover, he presented himself as a director, producer and co-writer of the drama thriller film “Road to Paloma” (2014), and it is worth mentioning the fact that he landed the male lead role in the above mentioned drama. The film premiered at Sarasota Film Festival in 2014 and gained mostly positive reviews. Later, he starred in feature films “Debug” (2014) and “Wolves” (2014). Soon, several films featuring Jason Momoa are going to be released, to give examples “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” (2016), “The Bad Batch” (2016) and “Going Under” (2016).
