Since he first strode onto the screen as Khal Drogo in Game of Thrones, Jason Momoa has become one of the world's biggest actors. Still, there are some things that most people don't know about him, so we're taking a deep dive into the life of the Aquaman star.
During his pre-acting days as a model, Jason Momoa says that he was often referred to as pretty. However, starting with his role in Conan the Barbarian, he's seen much more as a ruggedly handsome, rough-around-the-edges type of actor. So, what changed?
Part of it might be a scary event in 2008 that gave Momoa the prominent scar on his eyebrow. He told Access Hollywood that he was at a bar, and a man approached him. Suddenly, Momoa was smashed in the face with a pint glass. He had to get over 140 stitches and have multiple surgeries to repair the damage. He believes it was some sort of gang initiation, as the attack occurred with no provocation. Talking about the jagged line running across his eyebrow, Momoa further explained to Access Hollywood that it might have helped his career. He said. It helped [me] get those mean roles.
