Is Jason Momoa really driving a motorcycle for those high speed scenes?

“But the other half of the time I’m driving around Rome at top speed — that’s me,” Jason Momoa continued. “I could not believe it [director] Ludwig [Leterrier] Let me do it.” Luckily for Momoa, his director has nothing but positive things to say about his performance in the upcoming action movie. “He’s also an amazing action actor — he’ll do all his stunts, he’ll ride his bike, he will drive his car, he’ll sing his own songs, he’s just a force,” Leterrier said, teasing Momoa’s character.

The Dante actor even mentioned how concerned Leterrier was whether Momoa had insurance for his stunt work. Hardcore fans of Momoa shouldn’t be surprised to learn that the actor was responsible for some of his Fast X motorcycle scenes. After all, the Game of Thrones actor has never shied away from his love of motorcycles (check out Instagram), his favorite brand is Harley-Davidson. According to Men’s Journal, the actor has an impressive bike collection that includes the iconic 1916 MODEL J motorcycle.

With the release of Fast X, it will be interesting to see how much of Momoa’s unique personality shines as he becomes Dante. With the 10th film in the franchise set to spawn an 11th, only time will tell if Dante remains an enemy or becomes a friend through the end of the franchise.

Fast X hits theaters on May 19, 2023.
