"I would love to be able to honor our stunt people," Momoa said. "Because everyone in the f****** world loves action movies, and half of the actors don’t even do their own stunts."

Momoa is an advocate for pushing for a stunt category within the Academy Awards — as of now, there is none.

Momoa’s new film Sweet Girl starts streaming on Netflix starting August 20.
