Jason Momoa left viewers less than impressed over what was perceived as his ‘rudeness’ to Nigella Lawson.
The Hollywood star appeared on Monday night’s episode of The One Show to speak about the upcoming Aquaman 2.
He was joined on the sofa by Northern Ireland actor James Nesbitt and celebrity chef Nigella – however viewers were left fuming as they slammed his ‘bad manners’ towards the food writer.
As James chatted about his own upcoming project, Jason, who was sitting in the middle, leaned in to him and completely turned his back on Nigella.
Fans were quick to take to Twitter, aka X, to slam the behaviour, with one user, Lady Eileena, writing ‘how bad mannered … turning his back on Nigella, cutting her out of the conversation.’
User Chris noted the ‘awkward body language as Jason Momoa turns his back on Nigella… what’s that all about?’
Stephen Havard shared a screenshot from the episode and asked ‘what’s Nigella done to upset Jason Momoa then?’
‘Very rude body language by Jason Momoa, putting his back to Nigella,’ Ronan Lewis agreed, with Elizabeth Scott complaining ‘this Jason bloke is rude sitting with his back to Nigella.’
And as one user put it: ‘Why is Jason Momoa pointedly sitting with his back to Nigella Lawson?’
It comes ahead of the release of Aquaman And The Lsot Kingdom, which sees Jason taking centre stage in his role as the titular superhero alongside Nicole Kidman as Atlanna and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II as Black Manta.
Aquaman 2 follows Black Manta as he unleashes an ancient and malevolent force after failing to defeat Aquaman, who in turn forges an unlikely alliance with his brother Orm, the former king of Atlantis to save the world from destruction.
Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom is set for release on December 22.
The One Show airs weekdays from 7pm on BBC One.
