Aquaman’s Jason Momoa Is Unrecognizable After Shaving His Beard for First Time in 6 Years
Jason Momoa‘s latest transformation takes the iron throne.
The Game of Thrones alum debuted a bald hair look for his new Chime holiday campaign—and he’s completely unrecognizable with the updated ‘do.
In the “Bank Smarter This Season” ad, Jason plays several characters as he narrates the chaos of gift-giving, including a bed salesman who has long copper hair on the sides but is bald on the top of his head. And to further complete his epic transformation for the role, the 46-year-old donned wire-framed glasses and wore a wool gray suit while holding onto a clipboard in a mattress store.
Elsewhere in the commercial, Jason rocks a mullet to portray a security officer and dons an all-pink getup with pearl-adorned spectacles to play a store cashier.
For the Aquaman star, dressing up as various characters was part of the fun of teaming up with Chime.
“We had a lot of fun creating the different characters and bringing the energy of the holidays to life,” Jason said in a Oct. 23 press release. “At its core, the campaign reflects Chime’s mission to have financial tools work harder for people, and capturing that spirit on screen was a blast.”
And the Chief of War actor hinted that this won’t be the last time that he goes above and beyond with the bank, adding, “I’m excited to see what we create together next.”

Jason isn’t a total stranger to switching up his appearance. Back in July, the actor turned heads when he shaved off his beard for the first time in six years in order to reprise his role of Duncan Idaho in the third installment of the Dune movie franchise.
However, Jason wasn’t exactly a fan of that look.
“Goddammit,” he quipped in an Instagram video of him buzzing off his facial hair at the time. “I hate it.”
Luckily, Jason joked that he’d do anything for the action franchise’s director Denis Villeneuve, telling him in the clip, “Only for you.”
