Let Jason Momoa tell you a story.
Weiss with an idea: give Khal Drogo a fight sequence.
In one of the first big changes from George R.R.
HBO
The Dothraki warlord put this guy in his place by ripping out his tongue through his throat.
Ahead ofThrones highly anticipated eighth and final season, Momoa walks us through that memorable scene.
The prop he took home as a souvenir is also very Jason Momoa.
The director was like, You hired him, you gotta teach him.
My daughter was with me on set.
Im like, Hi, baby!
[Shes like,] I love you, Papa!
Then Id go and be like, Raaa!
She was, like, 4 years old.
Papas just playing not fazed by it at all.
It was a very memorable moment.
Im a big fan of taking the things that I worked with.
So I have the souvenir of the tongue and the throat.
Thats just on my desk.
I called up Dan and David.
I always wanted to see [Drogo] go to battle.
I didnt want to do some elaborate fight scene.
I think its [just as] intimidating to whisper in someones ear and go, Stop that.
you might just parry; I dont need to do any fight moves.
Then you just take the guys sword and slice his throat out.
And then within days they had this fing throat and tongue attachment, and it looked amazing.
