...Aquaman 2. www.thewrap.com/jason-momoa-says-he-cant-shoot-aquaman-2-because-he-got-run-over-by-a-bulldozer/Jason Momoa says he can’t start shooting “Aquaman 2”… because he “got run over by a bulldozer” while protesting construction on sacred Hawaiian land. “Sorry Warner Bros we can’t shoot ‘Aquaman 2,'” he wrote in an Instagram post. “Because Jason got run over by a bulldozer trying to stop the desecration of his native land THIS iS NOT HAPPENING. WE ARE NOT LETTING YOU DO THIS ANYMORE. Enough is enough. Go somewhere else.” In a followup post, Momoa asked fans to upport kīa’i for the @protectmaunakea movement, writing, “During this time, we are trying to unite both kānaka and Hawai’i born peoples alike to protect not only the mauna, but also our way of life and greatest natural resources in Hawaii as a whole.” Momoa has been protesting on the highest point on the state of Hawaii, Mauna Kea, for weeks, in an effort to stop the major construction for the Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT). Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson has been protesting the construction on the sacred land, as well — last month, he made a surprise visit to the dormant volcano. “Obviously, I’ve been following this for years now – more so as everything has been amping up more recently – but when you come here to Mauna Kea you realize it bigger than a telescope,” Johnson said, according to Hawaii News Now. “It’s humanity. It’s a culture. It is people, Polynesian people, who are willing to die here to protect this land. This very sacred land.” According to the Los Angeles Times, the volcano top was selected in 2009. In 2014, protestors disrupted the blessing ceremony, and in 2015 protestors were arrested for blocking the work, causing construction to stop. A few months later, there were more arrests and crews had to be pulled back. Hawaii’s Supreme Court has ruled the construction legal, however.
