The
MAX series, produced by the Discovery Channel, follows the "Aquaman"
star across the country meeting inspiring experts in what they
love.
From musicians to craftspeople, Momoa finds a connection with
people from various walks of life in the series whose first two
episodes premiere on Jan. 18.
"The cool thing is even though we travel around the world, it's
like you get the intimate look of going into someone's world,
all these different beautiful worlds," he said.
Momoa makes it a point to soak up the local culture anyway
wherever he travels to shoot a movie or have fun.
Every person and place he visited for the docuseries offered
something special and authentic, the "Game of Thrones" actor
said. "You can always find one really extremely interesting
thing or person, and just sit and listen."
Momoa is also the executive producer of "On The Roam" along with
Brian Andrew Mendoza, who produced "Braven," which starred Momoa
in 2018.
While apprehensive about showing a more personal side of
himself, he is optimistic that people will appreciate the
stories.
"You know, it's scary because it's everything that I love and,
it's always like, is it good? Is it gonna get ratings? Is this
good? Is it not?" Momoa said. "And it's just all my love and
hard work going into it, and I hope people love it."
