Jason Momoa walked the red carpet solo at the Academy Awards after splitting from Lisa Bonet earlier this year.
The dashing actor, 42, turned heads in a sleek black tuxedo with a purple and yellow pocket square, signaling his sport for the Ukrainian people amid the Russian invasion.
Jason exuded confidence as he posed alone ahead of Hollywood’s biggest night.

The Aquaman star wore her wavy brunette locks slicked back into a braided ponytail that rested on his back.
He peered through chic tortoiseshell glasses that gave him a thoughtful look.
The actor complemented the look with a set of rings and a hair tie on his right wrist.
According to Deadline, Momoa and Josh Brolin will present the eight trophies to be presented before the official Oscar broadcast.

This year, eight of the categories will not be awarded live. The awards are recorded the hour before they air and, according to the website, “play at certain points during the broadcast.”
Meanwhile, Jason is back on the market after splitting from his wife Lisa earlier this year.
The actor showed his support for his stepdaughter Zoe Kravitz, daughter of Lisa and her ex Lenny Kravitz, by attending the premiere of her new movie The Batman earlier this month.
“We’re just so proud,” he told ET Online at the time. “Lisa couldn’t be here so we’re covering for me and the babies. We are very happy just to be here. … It’s still a family, you know?’

Momoa’s sci-fi film Dune is nominated for 10 Academy Awards including Best Picture.
The 94th Annual Academy Awards has returned to its regular venue at the Dolby Theater in Hollywood, California after being held at Union Station last year.
In a rather bold move, the show will be hosted by a trio of stars at Regina Hall, Amy Schumer and Wanda Sykes, having gone without a host for the past three years.
The trio made history as their first all-female host cast as they are also the first presenters since 2018.
Hollywood’s Biggest Night! Momoa’s sci-fi film Dune is nominated for 10 Academy Awards including Best Picture.
Netflix’s Power Of The Dog led the nominations with 12 nominations, including Best Picture, Best Director and recognition for all of its top actors: Benedict Cumberbatch, Kirsten Dunst, Jesse Plemons and Kodi Smit-McPhee.
Campion, a 1993 nominee for The Piano, was the first woman ever to be nominated twice for best director.
Last year, Chloé Zhao became only the second woman to win the award. Campion’s cinematographer Ari Wegner also became the second woman ever to be nominated for Best Cinematography.
Dune followed closely behind with 10 nominations, mostly spread across the technical categories that rewarded the gargantuan craftsmanship of Villeneuve’s adaptation of Frank Herbert’s 1965 novel, but unexpectedly sidestepped Villeneuve’s direction.

The Warner Bros. release debuted simultaneously in theaters and — against the director’s strong objections — on HBO Max.
Featuring The Power Of The Dog and Dune, the Best Picture nominees are: Belfast, CODA, Don’t Look Up, Drive My Car, Licorice Pizza, King Richard, Nightmare Alley and West Side Story.
No streaming service has ever won Best Picture, but half of the 10 nominees were published by streamers. This year could be a better than ever chance that Netflix — which led all studios with 27 nominations — or some other service will finally break through.
Apple TV+ earned its first Best Picture nomination with deaf drama CODA, which also made history when nominated supporting actor Troy Kotsur became only the second deaf actor to be nominated since his CODA co-star Marlee Matlin was the first in 1987 was.
Netflix supported The Power of the Dog and Adam McKay’s apocalyptic comedy Don’t Look Up. And both King Richard and Dune launched on HBO Max. Even the Academy, for the first time, banned printed DVD screeners for its members, who could instead view submissions on the Academy’s streaming platform.
That was then: Momoa and his ex Lisa Bonet split earlier this year after five years of marriage
