MANILA, Philippines — Actor Jason Momoa is clean-shaven again for the first time in six years as he prepares to return to the "Dune" franchise.
The last time the actor did not have his iconic facial hair was for parts of the first "Dune," which came out in 2021 after some pandemic delays, where he played Duncan Idaho.
