The series is described as a “passion project” for show creators Momoa and Thomas Pa’a Sibbett, who both share native Hawaiian heritage. Other cast members include Luciane Buchanan, Temuera Morrison, Te Ao o Hinepehinga and Cliff Curtis.
Along with starring in the show, Momoa is an executive producer and directs the season finale. This is the actor’s second major TV series for Apple TV+ following See.
Who composed Chief Of War’s opening theme?
The show’s opening theme is by Hans Zimmer, who also co-produced the score across all nine episodes with composer James Everingham.
Zimmer is perhaps best known for his collaborations with director Christopher Nolan, notably on The Dark Knight trilogy and Interstellar. Everingham previously worked with Zimmer on the BBC series Virdee and Frozen Planet II.
