popular YouTubers and streamers, Valkyrae, recently shared her surprising experience with Jason Momoa on set for the highly anticipated Minecraft movie, showing a side of celebrity behavior which really caught her off guard. During a candid discussion with fellow streamer JasonTheWeen, Valkyrae opened up about her cameo in the film and the atmosphere surrounding the production.
Valkyrae reminisced how she saw Momoa acting unprofessionally on set. During an emotionally charged scene, Valkyrae witnessed the actor yell at various crew members and voiced her disappointment in the manner he mistreated them. “I just saw him mistreat some of the crew, and it was pretty disappointing,” she added, emphasizing how events went opposite of her expectation for such star behavior.
This incident got her thinking about the work environment since she pointed out,
“He was really mad at them for not doing something right, like setting up the shot. I thought, ‘Man, this is not a good work environment. I would not be happy working under these conditions.'”
Valkyrae’s comments reflect a larger conversation about how crew members are treated in high-pressure film environments, especially given how relaxed and friendly the public views Momoa.
Online discussions blew up after Valkyrae had made her revelations, with the fans being astonished and worried about Moma’s behavior. Surprising to many, considering how amiable he usually is with the public. Valkyrae suspected that Momoa’s method acting may have played a part in his behavior; however, her observations give insight into the movie sets that the cameras rarely capture.
As an influential content creator, Valkyrae has based her platform on authenticity and connection with her audience. Sharing her experience calls out the celebrities but also further denotes how people working behind the scenes in the entertainment industry should be treated. It was such a move that totally goes in line with her commitment to openness regarding her journey and challenges.
Scheduled to be released on April 4, 2025, Minecraft features Emma Myers, Jack Black, and Jennifer Coolidge in its cast. The movie follows the story of a young girl and her peculiar group of adventurers seeking to save the Overworld from the Ender Dragon. Already hyped, the movie incorporates Valkyrae’s cameo as just one more thing to be excited about.
The rise of Valkyrae to fame is truly an inspiring tale of perseverance. From sharing her experience in playing games on Instagram to a household name on Twitch and YouTube, she has obtained several accolades that include the Game Award for “Content Creator of the Year.” Despite whatever mixed reactions met her comments on Momoa, Valkyrae is still out there hustling and serving her fans streams, vlogs, even to collaborate.
Since working on Minecraft didn’t go the way she had hoped, Valkyrae appreciates her journey by showing just how well one can adapt and reflect on situations in a positive light that aren’t easy.
