Aquaman and See's Jason Momoa has been named GQ Australia's Man of the Year.
The Game of Thrones vet broke the news on his personal Instagram, writing a lengthy and humbling message thanking activists across the world for standing up for their causes.
when i was told i was going to be one of the men of the year i was shocked and surprised but hopefully its because i’m busting my ass trying to stop single use plastics and kicking up dust trying to stop a telescope getting built on our sacred mountain in hawaii. regardless. i look up to a lot of different people and if i have any impact on anyone like they do one me. then it’s to be an activist to do right with our voices follow our hearts. spread aloha. ohana is everything and have a beautiful time on this planet. i got a lot of work to do. we all do all my aloha. so stoked to be GQ Australia’s Man of the Year, thanks to @mojeanaria for presenting my award on the night. i couldn’t be there being it was thanksgiving and i was so thankful to be home with my ohana.

Momoa has been quite busy over the last few years. He has starred in two hit TV shows -- Apple TV+'s See and Netflix's Frontier -- and is in the middle of developing DCEU's Aquaman 2. And still, with his schedule packed to the brim with projects, he still finds the time to discuss which mutant he would like to play in the MCU.
