‘Angry’ Jason Momoa accused of ‘yelling’ at crew members on ‘Minecraft’ set in ‘disappointing’ tirade
A cast member accused Jason Momoa of showing toxic behavior toward his crew on the set of his upcoming live-action film “A Minecraft Movie.”
YouTube star Valkyrae, 32, made the claims during her appearance on fellow streamer JasonTheWeen’s channel on Friday, Sept. 13, during which they answered questions while eating spicy wings a la “Hot Ones.”
JasonTheWeen asked about her “worst celebrity or streamer experience,” asking “Who’s a f–king a–hole?”

Valkyrae, while hesitant at first, recalled having a cameo in the movie, which comes out in 2025, and replied, “I would have to say Jason Momoa.”
The social media personality claimed that she saw the “Aquaman” star, 45, “mistreat some of the crew.”
“It was pretty disappointing,” she said, admitting that the incident unfolded “after a very intense scene.”
“It was a very emotional scene so maybe he was still in character,” she suggested.
