In the clips, he is seen holding the pig in his hands and introducing his Instafam to his new friend.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In one of his posts, Momoa revealed that he got the pig from 'Slumberland' sets and shared that he doesn't prefer working with animals because he ends up wanting to get them home.

<p>Momoa has been roped in to play&nbsp;a magical character in the film who helps a young girl travel through dreams and flee nightmares in order to reunite with her deceased father,&nbsp;according to the film's synopsis.</p>

<p>Sharing video on his official Instagram handle on Monday, Momoa wrote, "My new friend LAU LAU. or MANAPUA. we haven’t decided yet. this is why i can’t work with animals i want to bring them home. wild and feral like his pops. aloha j. (sic)" Check it out below.</p>

Hollywood actor Jason Momoa is now a pet parent to an adorable pig! The 43-year-old has been sharing videos with the new member of his family since early Monday morning on social media.

Hollywood actor Jason Momoa is now a pet parent to an adorable pig! The 43-year-old has been sharing videos with the new member of his family since early Monday morning on social media. In the clips, he is seen holding the pig in his hands and introducing his Instafam to his new friend. In one of his posts, Momoa revealed that he got the pig from 'Slumberland' sets and shared that he doesn't prefer working with animals because he ends up wanting to get them home. For those unaware, 'Slumberland' is based on the comic strip 'Little Nemo in Slumberland' and it revolves around the character Nemo who has a stuffed pig that comes alive at night. Momoa has been roped in to play a magical character in the film who helps a young girl travel through dreams and flee nightmares in order to reunite with her deceased father, according to the film's synopsis. Sharing video on his official Instagram handle on Monday, Momoa wrote, "My new friend LAU LAU. or MANAPUA. we haven’t decided yet. this is why i can’t work with animals i want to bring them home. wild and feral like his pops. aloha j. (sic)" Check it out below.

Jason Momoa brings home a pig from 'Slumberland' sets, shares adorable videos

<p>In superhero blockbuster Aquaman, popular Hollywood actor Jason Momoa plays the role of protector of the deep, but with the world`s oceans under threat in real life, he is also taking the fight off-screen.</p>

<p>"Without a healthy ocean life, our planet as we know would not exist," Momoa said with the sea behind him as he took part in an event on a Portuguese beach ahead of the United Nations Ocean Conference in Lisbon, which starts on Monday.</p>

<p>Around 7,000 people, from heads of state to environmental activists, are expected to attend the conference, which was postponed from 2020 to this year due to the coronavirus pandemic.</p>

<p>Dozens of youth activists from various countries clapped and cheered as Momoa, who will soon become the U.N. Environment Programme advocate for Life Below Water, spoke about the problems facing the world`s oceans.</p>

<p>"We must seek to right the wrongs we have done against our children and grandchildren, turn the tide on our irresponsible stewardship and build momentum for a future where humanity can once again live in harmony with nature," said Momoa, 42.</p>

<p>Momoa is known for his role as Arthur Curry, a half-human, half-Atlantean character in DC Comics` Aquaman, which takes viewers to the underwater world of the seven seas. Aquaman 2 is scheduled for release in March 2023.</p>

<p>U.N. Secretary-General António Guterres joined Momoa at the event and apologised on behalf of his generation for not doing enough at the time to tackle climate change, save the ocean and protect biodiversity.</p>

<p>"Even today we are moving too slowly...we are still moving in the wrong direction," Guterres said, also pointing a finger at the fossil fuel industry. "It`s time for these behaviours to be seriously condemned."</p>
