Discovery Channel’s annual Shark Week returns this summer for its 35th year with Aquaman star Jason Momoa set to host.
“As the host of Shark Week, I am beyond excited to take you along on this journey,” Momoa said in a statement. “This project means more to me than a week of talking about sharks. It’s a chance for me to learn and share my connection to these amazing creatures. My love of sharks came long before my time as Aquaman — it began several generations before me.”
Momoa resumes his role as the King of Atlantis in Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom hitting theaters this December.
