Oscars 2022: Jason Momoa suits up in dapper tuxedo as he strikes a pose solo after Lisa Bonet split

Jason Momoa walked the red carpet at the Academy Awards solo after splitting from Lisa Bonet earlier this year.

Jason exuded confidence as he posed on his own ahead of Hollywood’s biggest night.

The Aquaman star wore his wavy brunette locks slicked back into a braided ponytail that rested on his back.

He peered through a smart pair of tortoise hued glasses which gave him a contemplative air.

The actor accessorized the look with an array of rings and a scrunchie on his right wrist.

Momoa and Josh Brolin will be presenting the eight trophies set to be awarded before the official Oscars telecast, according to Deadline.

This year, eight of the categories will not be awarded live. The awards will be taped in the hour prior to the telecast and will ‘run at points during the show,’ according to the site.

Meanwhile, Jason is back on the market after splitting from wife Lisa earlier this year.

The actor showed his support for his stepdaughter Zoe Kravitz, the daughter of Lisa and her ex Lenny Kravitz, by attending the premiere of her new film 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 representing, me and the babies. We’re very excited to just be here. …It’s still family, you know?’

Momoa’s sci-fi film Dune is up for 10 Oscar awards, including Best Picture.

The 94th annual Academy Awards ceremony has returned to its regular venue of 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 in Regina Hall, Amy Schumer and Wanda Sykes as it has gone without a host over the last three years.

The trio have made history as it is the first time there is an all-female host line-up as they are also the first emcees since 2018.

Hollywood’s biggest night! Momoa’s sci-fi film Dune is up for 10 Oscar awards, including Best Picture

Netflix’s Power Of The Dog led nominations with 12 nods, 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 nominee for 1993′s The Piano, became the first woman to ever be nominated twice for best director.

Last year, Chloé Zhao became just the second woman to ever win the award. Campion’s director of photography, Ari Wegner, also became the second woman ever nominated for best cinematography.

Dune followed closely behind with 10 nominations spread out largely in the technical categories that rewarded the gargantuan craft of Villeneuve’s adaptation of Frank Herbert’s 1965 novel, yet unexpectedly bypassed Villeneuve’s direction.

The Warner Bros. release debuted simultaneously in theaters and — against the strenuous objections of its director — on HBO Max.

With The Power Of The Dog and Dune, the nominees for best picture 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 released by streamers. This year, the odds may be better than ever that Netflix — which led all studios with 27 nominations — or another service will finally break through.

Apple TV+ notched its first best-picture nomination with the deaf drama CODA, which also made history as supporting-actor nominee Troy Kotsur became only the second deaf actor ever nominated as his CODA co-star Marlee Matlin was the first in 1987.

Netflix backed 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 ruled out hard-copy DVD screeners for its members, who instead could watch submissions on the academy’s streaming platform.
