Jason Momoa Joins Universal's Action-Comedy 'Shots! Shots! Shots!' (The Playlist)

Actor Jason Momoa ("Dune," "Fast X") is making the jump to an action-comedy movie from Universal Pictures called "Shots! Shots! Shots!."

And to that end, his comedy chops seem relatively untapped so far. Momoa also lends his voice to an animated film based on the massively popular video game “Minecraft” and will be seen next in Netflix’s fantasy film “Slumberland.” While his character Duncan Idaho heroically died in “Dune,” there is a possibility he might have flashback sequences in “Dune: Part Two,” but that all depends on the script and if director Denis Villeneuve can navigate the actor’s growing schedule. “Shots! Shots! Shots!” has an interesting-sounding premise which will likely need a director that can handle both action and comedic elements.

He also recently lined up a big-screen take on "Minecraft," and may yet make a "key cameo" in Ana Lily Amipour's planned remake of Sylvester Stallone's vertiginous 1993 hit, "Cliffhanger." With a slate that stuffed, he's more than earned the right to cut loose when the spirits come a-callin'. If you're worried Momoa is in danger of getting typecast, know that the one-time Dothraki warlord is happily doing the typecasting. This affinity occasionally bleeds through to his performances, most notably in his rip-roaring portrayal of Aquaman. At a certain point, some actors might consider toning down their hard-partying image.

Amber Heard's Agent Was Told 'Lack of Chemistry' with Jason ... (PEOPLE.com)

Amber Heard starred as Mera in the original Aquaman in 2018 and has already filmed the sequel, which is set to hit theaters in March 2023.

Her role eventually became "very pared down" in the sequel, according to Heard. She was very well received in the movie at the time, everyone was happy with her at the time, there were no issues. Then to have a complete downturn after that, and then have that coincide with constant tweets and negativity put out about her, I don't have a physical piece of paper of evidence, but it's the only logical conclusion I draw." Speaking about Heard's success after Aquaman, Kovacevic said that she believed the actress's career did not take off as much as Momoa's. The actress has already filmed the movie, and it is set to hit theaters in March 2023. Heard was first cast in 2017's Justice League and starred as Mera in the original Aquaman the following year.

Johnny Depp’s initial defamation lawsuit stems from his argument that Amber Heard’s claims of domestic abuse directly led to Disney’s decision to continue the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise without Depp. Following this, supporters of Depp began a campaign to push for Heard to lose her Aquaman role. In this case, it seems the possibility of Amber Heard being out of the Aquaman franchise were quite real. In a pre-recorded deposition, covered by EW, Amber Heard’s agent Jessica Kovacevic said that Warner Bros did consider recasting Amber Heard for Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom. She said WB never specifically cited the Depp/Heard split as the reason for considering to recast the actress.

However, supporters of Momoa claimed that even if he is the reason behind all this, it is sort of fair. jason has openly talked about having a large hand in writing the script for AQ2. the fact that amber received multiple copies and her role was severely cut down means he played a part in that. Also now that James Wan has unfollowed Heard on Instagram the chances get high for things going south for Heard. Due to his role as the lead in the Aquaman movie, Momoa’s name and likeness have been exploited in multiple uploads, with fabricated remarks credited to him. Depp’s claims that Heard was abusive toward him during their ill-fated romance have prompted fans to demand that she should be removed from the big-budget production.
