Superhero movies have become one of the most popular genres of film within the past few years. Every studio with the rights to a superhero franchise has been cashing in on this growing trend. From Thor and Ironman to Superman and Batman, the list of superhero films is endless.

Disney, the current owner of the Marvel franchise, has made billions from their superhero films. In fact, the most recent Avenger's movie broke became one of the highest grossing films of all time at the box office.

The actors and actresses who have the good fortune to work on these films have also enjoyed a significant rise in popularity. While some actors such as Robert Downey Jr. and Chris Hemsworth have enjoyed fame before, there are other actors who were new to the industry before starring in these films.

Jason Momoa is one of these actors who is currently enjoying his newfound fame. He recently starred in the film Aquaman, which received great reviews from critics and fans alike. Although this movie was not as closely associated with some of the larger superhero films, it still drew audiences from around the world.

Like many of the superhero actors, Jason Momoa had to undergo a massive transformation to prepare for the film. After all, it takes the average person a significant amount of effort to end up looking like a superhero. Momoa trained for months before the filming started.

He worked with personal trainers, dieticians, and other experts to perfect his transformation. Within a few months, Momoa had transformed into a real-life superhero. Nobody was surprised when the actor ended up taking off some of his clothes on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

Last Wednesday, the Aquaman star sat down for a candid interview with Ellen. Jason Momoa admitted that he was quite nervous to make a debut on Ellen's talk show. The two conversed about Momoa's outfit choice for the Oscars afterparty.

They also talked about his shaven beard and pet snake. Towards the end of the interview, the 39-year-old actor taught the host how to throw axes.

Although Ellen didn't find much success in her ax-throwing abilities, she was able to get Momoa to remove his shirt to show off those massive muscles. Within just 45 seconds, Momoa was able to raise $40,000 for charity with the help of Ellen and her company.
