Jason Momoa on son Nakoa-Wolf's Dune 3 debut: 'He's going to be way better than I've ever been'
Actor Jason Momoa is beaming with pride as his 16-year-old son Nakoa-Wolf Manakauapo Namakaeha Momoa prepares to make his acting debut in 'Dune 3,' the final installment of Denis Villeneuve's sci-fi trilogy. Speaking at the premiere of his OTT series 'Chief of War,' Momoa shared that while he initially resisted the idea of his son entering the industry, he now believes Nakoa-Wolf will surpass him. Jason Momoa says his son did it on his own According to a report in Entertainment Tonight, Jason Momoa shared that his son expressed interest in acting, but he initially discouraged him, telling him he couldn't act and wouldn't be part of the industry. However, his son pursued it on his own and proved his dedication. Momoa admitted that his son is already showing signs of being a better actor than him and added that, like him, the boy is loud—something they have in common. He expressed pride in seeing his child follow his passion and push forward independently. Momoa's comments reflect a mix of disbelief, admiration, and emotional acceptance of his son's decision to follow in his footsteps. The actor also joked about shooing his son away during red carpet interviews. Nakoa-Wolf reportedly cast as Leto II Atreides While the studio has yet to officially confirm the role, multiple sources suggest Nakoa-Wolf will play Leto II, the son of Paul Atreides played by Timothée Chalamet and Chani played by Zendaya, in 'Dune: Messiah.' His twin sister Ghanima will reportedly be portrayed by Ida Brooke, marking a generational shift in the franchise's narrative arc. A legacy passed on through the sands of Arrakis Momoa previously played Duncan Idaho, the loyal swordmaster to 'House Atreides,' in Dune of the year 2021. Though his character met a tragic end, Duncan remains a fan favorite. In Dune 3, Momoa returns as the character Hayt, which is a clone of Duncan Idaho, as it is reintroduced to Paul Atreides as part of the Messiah storyline. The father-son casting adds another meaningful layer to the franchise, which symbolized continuity at a generational level and emotional depth. As Denis Villeneuve adapts 'Dune: Messiah,' the emergence of new characters like Leto II and Ghanima signals a shift toward legacy, prophecy, and transformation.
