Jason Momoa and Dave Bautista Developing A Buddy Cop Project

Entering the category of films we never knew we wanted until we hear about it, Jason Momoa and Dave Bautista are about to join forces for a buddy cop film.

How did this even come into fruition? According to Momoa, it all started when he got a text from Bautista saying they should work together. Momoa told James Corden while guesting on The Late Late Show.

“He literally texted me four days ago, going, ‘We need to do a buddy cop film. We love each other. We are on See and Dune together.’ And I said, ‘Absolutely.’ And he said, ‘Let’s do it in Hawaii.’ And I said, ‘Let’s do it. I have an idea.’ So it’s off to the races now. We’re doing it,”

“It sells itself, bro,” “Dave loves wearing Speedos. I love wearing board shorts. And both of us with our shirts off. He’ll be grumpy and I’ll be charming. Boom. It sells itself, bro. I have the hair. He doesn’t have hair. We cover all the demographics.”
