Alan Ritchson is making it big in Hollywood at the moment. From Titans and Jack Reacher to the Fast and Furious franchise, there is no stopping the actor. He has been showing just how talented he is and is making sure that no effort is left unnoticed. With his increasing fame, the actor is not afraid to share his thoughts either.
In one particular interview, the actor went a little too candid, revealing an old-time grudge that he had been holding for years. Coincidentally enough, it involved Jason Momoa and his most iconic character. The two starred in Fast X together, however, there is one thing Ritchson cannot forgive Momoa for. It even motivated him to perhaps one day go one on one against him.
Alan Ritchson Is Not Happy With Jason Momoa’s Aquaman Suit
Alan Ritchson was once asked about whether or not he would be able to take the cast of Fast X in a fight and his opinion about that was rather interesting. According to the actor, it would be rather easy for him to take them all in a fight and he would enjoy doing so as well. However, when it came to going up against Jason Momoa, it was personal for the actor.
“I’ll take my rage out on him. The fact that he got the better Aquaman wetsuit.” Ritchson added. “Have you seen his costume versus mine?”
Ritchson’s acting debut was in the CW’s Smallville. The actor took on the role of Arther Curry, aka Aquaman. Unfortunately, his costume wasn’t as impressive as what Momoa got. The actor noticed it as well and has been holding a grudge about that ever since. So he confirmed that if he got an opportunity to fight the Aquaman actor, he would let his rage take over. Although is was more of a joke, he still believed that Momoa would be an easy opponent for Ritchson.
Alan Ritchson Was Okay Being Replaced As Aquaman
After Alan Ritchson debuted in Smallville as Aquaman, the success of the episode led CW to make a show surrounding the character as well. However, one factor that was left out of the series was rather unfortunate. Ritchson was replaced by Justin Hartley to play the titular role, leaving him out completely. The actor learned not to hold onto some roles as close to him as he did even though it was his first acting job.
“I learned the best lesson I could, early on, to hold loosely to this stuff, because nothing is guaranteed, and nothing is owed to me.”
