Jason Momoa Channeling His Dad’s Energy on Set of Slumberland

Jason Momoa Channeling His Dad’s Energy on Set of Slumberland

Jason Momoa

Jason Momoa, the American actor, shared that starring in Slumberland allowed him to showcase how he really is with his children. He learned about the active role that led to channeling his dad’s energy and inner kid.

“Art imitates life”.

Jason

Jason Momoa may be known for projects such as ‘Aquaman’ and ‘Game of Thrones’ but his role as Flip in Netflix’s newly released film “Slumberland” allowed him an opportunity to step into a project where he plays an odd character alongside co-star 14-year-old, Marlow Barkley.

And while, yes, this is different from what viewers normally see of Jason onscreen, the 43-year-old said in an interview, he was drawn to the project because it reflects who he is on the daily as a dad to 13-year-old Nakoa-Wolf Manakauapo Namakaeha and 15-year-old Lola Iolani, who he shares with ex Lisa Bonet.

Jason said he was featured in ‘Slumberlands’ and it is all because of Francis Lawrence. He knows him. He gets to see him with his kids. He sees how he is on set. He just pitched him the story and it made him cry.

Jason added that his real-life role as a father made it that much more of a special experience working with Marlow.

“My babies are the same age as her, so it was nice my first time working with a kid actor. She was wonderful. She’s so talented. She’s intelligent but at the same time, wasn’t trying to be older. You got to be young”.

And Jason didn’t just channel his inner dad for the role, but also his inner child. 

He said of Marlow that he was just trying to be younger than her and just be caught in that forever-boy age. So, he guesses there’s a lot of that in the movie.

Also starring Kyle Chandler and Chris O’Dowd, the project followed Marlow’s character Nemo to a world known as Slumberland, where she and Flip embarked on a journey through both dreams and nightmares to help Nemo see her father again. 

As for what it was like to film such a movie alongside Jason, Marlow exclusively told in an interview they had fun “every day” and “every minute” on set.

“He was everything I wanted him to be and more. Always made me laugh. Always knew how to have a good time”.

‘Slumberland’ strands Jason Momoa in a nightmare of a movie

A movie about dreams becomes the stuff of nightmares in Netflix’s utterly misguided “Slumberland”, an attempt to build a sprawling fantasy adventure from the bones of the early-20th-century newspaper comic strip. Most notable as a vehicle for Jason Momoa’s hopeful spectacle from ‘The Hunger Games” director, Francis Lawrence, serves up lots of special effects desperately in search of a story.

The plot begins with a familiar kid-movie setup: A young girl named Nemo (Marlow Barkley, in a gender swap from the comic) living in a lighthouse away from the world with her caring father (Kyle Chandler). When dad is lost at sea, she’s sent to live with her buttoned-up uncle (Chris O’Dowd) in the big city, finding an escape in her dreams.

The realm of dreams is described as “a world with no consequence,” but as constructed, that comes in a movie with no clear creative compass, proving more baffling than magical. Alternately Zany and Sappy, the former impulse is embodied by Momoa (Flip), who resides in the dream world and, with his horns and hat, resembles an unholy cross of the Mad Hatter, the Ghost of Christmas Present and a refugee from the island of Dr. Moreau.

Nemo and Flip go on a series of adventures in pursuit of a precious artifact, with the promise that by journeying through the dreams of others, she’ll somehow be able to see her father again. Along the way, they run into conflict with something called the Bureau of Subconscious Activities, a surreal bureaucracy that sees Flip as an outlaw.

‘Slumberland’ was premiered in November 18, 2022, and is now streaming on Netflix.
