The “Aquaman” star revealed he adopted a wild pig after meeting the animal on the set of his new Netflix project, “Slumberland.”

Momoa’s latest onscreen venture follows a little girl named Nemo, played by Marlow Barkley, whose stuffed pig toy comes alive at night. Momoa’s genie-like character helps the girl travel through her dreams.
The “Braven” actor has been outspoken about his love of animals, telling Ellen DeGeneres in 2019 that he shares a donkey, two “half-wolves,” a ball python, and a dog with his ex-wife Lisa Bonet.
