Jason Momoa’s New Photos For A Magazine Are So Good They Got 1.2 Million Likes In Less Than 24 Hours

Actor, local Khal, and athletic Aquaman Jason Momoa is making headlines all over the world, but this time it’s not because of his underwater shenanigans or attempts to impress the Khaleesi. The actor recently gave an interview to Esquire magazine which caught the attention of many internet users because of the unusual and adorable pictures taken for it.

The reason why Momoa’s name is on many people’s lips? The mountain of muscles and actor who resembles a Greek god showed a different side to his life when he did a photo shoot holding a cat and eating peaches. It just goes to show that Momoa really is a bad boy with a heart of gold and truly is the King of the Wild Things, especially when you consider his love for animals.

You can read Momoa’s full interview with the fabulous Esquire magazine right here.

During the interview with Esquire, Momoa revealed that he is a real animal fanatic and a family man. He has two dogs at home. Both of them are an interesting mix: half malamute, half wolf. What’s more, the actor has two kids. And a donkey. You read that right. A donkey.

The actor also told the story of how he got the manly scar near his left eyebrow. No, it wasn’t some epic fight to save humanity; rather, somebody hit him with a glass at a Hollywood bar back in 2008.

But did you know that Momoa also played Conan the Barbarian in the 2011 film by the same name? We can definitely see why — his muscles are almost as big as Arnold Schwarzenegger’s!

Storytelling, journalism, and art are a core part of who I am. I've been writing and drawing ever since I could walk—there is nothing else I'd rather do. My formal education, however, is focused on politics, philosophy, and economics because I've always been curious about the gap between the ideal and the real. At work, I'm a Senior Writer and I cover a broad range of topics that I'm passionate about: from psychology and changes in work culture to healthy living, relationships, and design. In my spare time, I'm an avid hiker and reader, enjoy writing short stories, and love to doodle. I thrive when I'm outdoors, going on small adventures in nature. However, you can also find me enjoying a big mug of coffee with a good book (or ten) and entertaining friends with fantasy tabletop games and sci-fi movies.

I'm a visual editor at Bored Panda. I kickstart my day with a mug of coffee bigger than my head, ready to tackle Photoshop. I navigate through the digital jungle with finesse, fueled by bamboo breaks and caffeine kicks. When the workday winds down, you might catch me devouring bamboo snacks while binging on the latest TV show, gaming or I could be out in nature, soaking up the tranquility and communing with my inner panda.

Well, part of the interview was the "scrunchie challange" so... Yeah... Can't blame him though: it's a functional accessoire!
