Jason Momoa is switching back into *Dune* mode.
The *Aquaman* actor, who's known for his bushy beard, shared a video of himself buzzing off his facial hair, as he prepares to film the third installment of the franchise. As fans of the sci-fi movies know, Momoa looks quite different with a clean-shaven face. He, for one, is not a fan.
"Goddammit it, I hate it!" Momoa said in his social media message. "It has been about six years — maybe a little bit more — since I did *Dune*."
Momoa referenced his Oscar-nominated director, Denis Villeneuve, when he quipped, "Only for you, Denis!"
Momoa played Duncan Idaho in 2021's *Dune*, in which he costarred with an A-list cast that included Timothée Chalamet, Zendaya, Oscar Isaac, Javier Bardem, and Josh Brolin. He revealed in March that he would reprise the role in next year's *Dune 3*, despite the fact that his character was killed in the previous film.
"If you didn't read the books, it's not my fault," he joked during an appearance on *Today*, referencing author Frank Herbert's novels on which the movies are based.**

In his post, Momoa also mentioned a development at his company Mananalu, which he founded in 2019 to "rid the world of single-use plastic bottles" in order to protect the planet. A subject Momoa, a native of Hawaii, is very passionate about.
In December 2019, he called out fellow actor Chris Pratt who appeared to hold a single-use plastic water bottle in an ad for Amazon. Both voiced characters in *The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part*, which was released that month.**
"Bro I love u but wtf on the water bottle," Momoa wrote on social media. "No single use plastic. Come on."

Pratt responded positively.
"Aquaman! You're completely right," Pratt responded. "Dammit. I always carry my big gallon size reusable water jug around with me too. I even had it that day!!! ... If I remember correctly somebody threw that plastic bottle to me in the photo shoot cause I didn't know what to do with my hands! I never know what to do with my hands! So uncomfortable. For real tho. Love you too buddy. My bad. I don't want your home of Atlantis covered in plastic. Hear that kids? Reduce. Reuse. Recycle."

"BRO you know my children and I are madly in love with you and I love everything you do," he wrote. "I'm sorry this was received so badly today I didn't mean for that to happen … I'm just very passionate about this single-use plastic epidemic. The plastic water bottles have to stop I hope u make a reusable water bottle for Amazon so we all can purchase. You're an inspiration to many I'm one of them."**
