“I feel very connected to the character and have played him across, what, four movies now?”
Momoa is unconcerned by the latest delay to the movie’s release as he is confident that fans will be happy with what they see.
He said: “We killed it. We made something amazing and it’ll come out when it’s meant to come out.”
He also thanked Tom Cruise and ‘Top Gun: Maverick’ for making cinemas appealing again.
“The nice thing about what’s happened with COVID is that everyone is trying to rush to meet these deadlines but we know it should come out when it’s ready to come out (at a time) when everybody is getting back in the movie theatres. So, thank you Tom Cruise.”
