HONOLULUCalling his portrayal of a Native Hawaiian chief straight out of the 1700s, critics, scholars, and fans alike praised Chief Of War star Jason Momoa this week for the historical accuracy of his ass. Of all the period dramas that have come out in the past two decades, this is by far the most realistic historical ass Ive seen, said University of Hawaii historian Douglas Hale, who stated that Momoa had evidently spent hundreds of hours studying 18th-century sketches, lithographs, and texts depicting and describing the asses of great warriors like Kaiana, whom he plays in the new Apple TV+ series. Normally, you expect Hollywood to take a lot of creative liberties with this type of story, so I was pleasantly surprised by how much care and research had clearly gone into authentically representing those cheeks. My hope is that Chief Of War will get a lot more people interested in studying the asses of the past. At press time, the series was facing backlash after fans had reportedly become frustrated by the shows historically inaccurate lack of full swinging hog.The post Jason Momoa Praised For Historical Accuracy Of Chief Of War Ass appeared first on The Onion.
