“Just a lot of laughs and also a lot of pain, so there’s wonderful action.” he adds.

The project will see Jason Momoa, 43, reunite with Ben Affleck, who is reprising his role as Bruce Wayne/Batman in the film. Momoa admits he loves working with Affleck.

“It’s just hugs and kisses. I love that guy. We get along too well. It’s very good to see him again.” Momoa tells Variety.
