In a video shared on YouTube earlier this year, Momoa and Fallon can be seen getting wet as they splash water against each other’s faces.

They faced off in a twist on the card game War, where the loser of each hand faces wet consequences – getting splashed with a glass of water.

The clip, running for almost seven minutes, has amassed nearly three million views as of September 15, 2018. Follow us on our Twitter account, @amomama_usa, to learn more.

Fans were quick to join in the fun on the comments section.

“There’s pure fear in Jimmy’s eyes every time Jason picks up a glass of water,” wrote Cassandra Aponte.

“The guy throws water like a beast,” commented Matt Evans.

GETTING THE ROLE

During the more serious part of Momoa’s appearance on "The Tonight Show," the 39-actor revealed how he earned the role of Aquaman.

“That whole audition process is pretty crazy,” Momoa shared. "Zack was a huge fan of Game of Thrones. A lot of people are huge fans of Game of Thrones. Zack was the one that... I couldn't get a job and Zack called me in. He was a huge fan and he wanted to take Aquaman and... It was funny because I had no idea what I was even playing. He just called me in. I had an audition for Batman. Obviously, Ben was cast. I was like, 'I'm just basically gonna be the bad guy. I'm gonna fight Batman and Superman. I'm gonna play the villain.' And he's like, 'Wait, no. Aquaman!'"

The character was briefly seen in 2016's "Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice." Momoa brought the character to life in last year's "Justice League."

Momoa was earlier reunited with her stepdaughter Zoë Kravitz during the recent San Diego Comic-Con. They were seen posing for photographs at the event, even if they were there for two completely different projects.
