Chief of War is an epic historical TV drama set in the islands of Hawaii, written by and starring Jason Momoa along with NZ actors Temuera Morrison and Cliff Curtis. 

Based on true events, it follows the warrior Ka’iana, as he tries to unify the islands before Western colonization in the late 18th century. Temuera joins Jim to talk about the Apple TV+ series and what it was like to shoot on the beaches of Hawaii.
