You may have noticed him in that horrendous show Baywatch Hawaii but it's only with HBO's TV series Game of Thrones that you think Whoa Momoa. When the camera shows him in his first scene, looking at his future wife with contempt, arrogance and a flicker of desire, you know instantly that the Actor has arrived. Now if only Hollywood won't typecast and worry because he's not like Tom Cruise (omg, like anyone wants another megalomaniac and religious nut like Cruise?! The fact that he's a good actor is secondary, I no longer want to see his movies and that's the point, isn't it?), I can tell you where he will make a bigger mark than he does in Conan the Barbarian: the movie version of JR Ward's Black Dagger Brotherhood.
Been reading GoT and I gotta say it's interesting, wonderfully imaginative and well-written but George does tend to go on a bit, doesn't he. I need some kind of closure after I finish a tome, and if you're just going to keep carrying on like a lush at a cocktail party.....
Of course, Jason's allure is only enhanced when you know he's married to the stunning, other-worldly Lisa Bonet and that he has two babies. How sweet is that.
PS. That's Sean Bean on the book cover there and I was rather thrilled to hear he was recently in a bar brawl where he was defending a woman's honour. (Not so thrilled to read that the same woman had once filed charges against HIM for assault. What the what?!) But what I really like about Sean is that he once said he wasn't into the pap and party circus because he couldn't imagine that that was it, that was as high as you could reach. There has to be more, really there does.
Reminds me of Anderson Cooper's chilling account of his brother's suicide, when the boy asked his mother "Will I ever feel again?" before flinging himself off a balcony in front of her eyes. That's a question we must never ask ourselves - or the pavement would be littered, wouldn't it.
