Jason Momoais (nearly) baring it all.

During theAquamanactor’s appearance onJimmy Kimmel LiveWednesday, hostJimmy Kimmeltook a moment to show Momoa and his audience a photograph that the 43-year-old recently shared on Instagramshowing himself wearing a beige thong-like piece of clothingduring a fishing trip.

Momoa said the malo is “what I wear every day”' for the series, which he said takes place in late 18th century Hawaii.

“I was just getting ready for the role, cause I like to get into character, and so I was tanning my white ass,” the actor told Kimmel. “It was a second — you go past and he just happened to take a little photo.”

Kimmel, who joked that fish in the ocean must feel betrayed when they see Aquaman himself fishing for them, then asked: “And that’s comfortable?”

“Oh my God, yes. I actually don’t even like wearing clothes anymore,” Momoa replied. “I’m in it every day. I wear it all the time.”

When Kimmel inquired whether Momoa was wearing the malo under his clothes during their interview, the actor simply rose from his seat and began removing his clothes until he was clad only in the traditional thong-like clothing, baring his behind for the talk show host and his audience.
