We Can't Decide If Jason Momoa's Daughter Looks More Like Him or Lisa Bonet
If you haven't already noticed: we're pretty delighted by Jason Momoa. The 40-year-old actor is a hoot to follow on Instagram, volunteers with the Make-A-Wish foundation, and he's a dutiful husband to Lisa Bonet. Plus, he's got the whole blended family thing down. But besides those attributes, we also love seeing what a doting dad he is to Lola, 12, and his lookalike son Nakoa-Wolf, 10. He's also spoken about his close relationship with Big Little Lies actress Zoë Kravitz, who he calls "Zo-Zo bear."
In 2017, the proud papa told Men's Health that his children are the reason he got his life together.
"I really can't tell you what the hell I was doing before I had kids," he said. "Just f**king off. Wasting time. I think I was pretty reckless and definitely a bit out of control. Now I'm more focused. I probably love myself more and take care of myself more because I want to stick around."
In the same interview, the Aquaman star also spoke candidly about how he wants to raise Lola and Nakoa-Wolf.
"My kids are my greatest piece of art. If I can pump them full of amazing stuff and surround them with beautiful art and music, then I'm going to live out my life watching them. They're already way smarter and just way better than me," he said. "God, I love it. It's beautiful. I want it to be the greatest thing I ever do: make good humans."
Although Momoa and Benet tend to keep their lives private, he does give us snippets of his kids on Instagram, red carpet events, and occasionally, with mini documentaries on YouTube. Let's all savor their loving family moments by enjoying the pictures below.
Like father, like son, Momoa and Nakoa-Wolf protest together.
Joy from the mauna. Goodbye 39 cheeehooooo🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽so thankful to be here Aloha j

Momoa spent his 40th birthday protesting the construction of a telescope set to be built on top of Mauna Kea, the tallest mountain in Hawaii, that's considered sacred ground.
Momoa loves to shout out his kids on their birthdays.

Benet and Momoa celebrated daughter Lola's 12th birthday by watching The Lion King 2019 remake as a family. He shared the loving moment above and even admitted in his caption that he cried "numerous of times" during the film.
And skateboard with them.

In a 2016 mini documentary called Canvas of My Life, Momoa revealed it was his mother, Coni, who introduced him to skateboarding and he did the same with his kids. "You wouldn't believe how much fun you can have on a curb," he said.
Lola and Nakoa-Wolf definitely resemble their parents.

In this picture, who do you think Lola and Nakoa-Wolf look more like: Momoa or Benet?
His children still get starstruck.

The excitement on Lola and Nakoa-Wolf's in this picture with their dad and Chris Pratt says it all.

Here's a different picture of them rocking it out with Slash from Guns N' Roses.
Talk about a family that travels together in style.

Can we just hitch a ride on that private jet with Momoa, his mom, Lola and Nakoa-Wolf?
Bonet and Momoa's kids have picked up his rock climbing habit too.

Just like skateboarding, Momoa's mom introduced him to rock climbing, as well, which Momoa passed onto his children.
"It made me face my fears and my doubts. Explore the impossible. Problem solving through movement. I learned to trust my hands, find my feet, I found balance and I found my passion. I wanted to see the world climbing," he says in the Canvas of My Life video.
The kiddos enjoy visiting dad at work.

Quality time is family time.

We wonder what the trio was talking about during this seemingly peaceful moment.

Here's another of the them just enjoying the view together.
Momoa, Benet, and their kids are a rocker family to the core.

The four look totally badass (if we may) while taking in a Red Hot Chili Peppers concert.
Almost a complete family photo, it's just missing Bonet.

Momoa has always been clear that he considers Kravitz his daughter too. Considering he's been in her life since she was 15, it makes sense.
Now, for a rare family portrait...
What a day. Mahalo @guinness @guinnessus one for the record. ALOHA da momoaz
