The star also recently returned from New York after hosting Saturday Night Live.

Before appearing in sketches, the actor kicked off the episode with an opening monologue. Jason was greeted with a warm applause from the live audience as he stepped onto the stage.

He then revealed that his mother was also in attendance to cheer on her son and humorously added, ‘If you see her, be careful, she’s still recovering from giving birth to me.’

Jason expressed, ‘But I’m so happy to be here. I love this place. I love life! I love waking up washing my luxurious hair with a full bottle of shampoo, and I love playing Aquaman, because I love the ocean.’

He opened up about his childhood, revealing that when he was younger, he had dreams of being a marine biologist.

‘The problem was that even though I was born in Hawaii, I grew up in Iowa, which is not really known for their oceans.’

The star explained that he watched a film called, In God’s Hands, and stated that he saw his cousin ‘in these 50 foot waves, so I went back to Hawaii to surf with my family, and I ended up getting on a TV show called Baywatch.’

Momoa notably portrayed the character of Jason Ioane in Baywatch: Hawaii from 1999 through 2001.

‘I call it the B word. But I fell in love with acting, and I only stayed for a few seasons because you really don’t want to get stuck in the B hole,’ he joked.

‘And now I feel like my life has come full circle,’ he expressed to the audience.

‘I do a lot of work protecting our oceans and small island nations. I even started my own water company to eliminate single use plastic water bottles,’ Jason stated, referencing to Mananalu Pure Water that he launched in 2019.

‘This work really means a lot to me. I’m serious. We’re going to save the whales, the coral reef, the spongebobs because Jason Momoa loves life.’

To conclude his opening monologue, the actor said a Hawaiian saying, which he revealed translated to: ‘Take care of the Earth, take care of each other.’
