05 Mar

Jason Momoa, better known as Aquaman and Khal Drogo from HBO’s Game of Thrones, is apparently an avid Leica camera collector and working alongside Leica and Red Digital for an upcoming project.

On his Instagram page, under the username prideofgypsies, Momoa shared the below post highlighting a ‘new project and film’ he’s working on. He doesn’t dive into the details of it, but says video is being shot on Red Digital cameras with Leica glass attached while stills are being shot with Leica cameras.
