Jason Momoa and Dave Bautista play brothers in their latest movie, The Wrecking Crew, yet it's not the first time the actors have done that. Both performers are major stars, who have previously worked together in 2021's Dune and on a well-received television show that premiered in 2019.

Both actors have popped up in some of the best movies in recent memory. While they haven't shared the screen a ton of times, their talents are evident and they work so well together when they do. They currently have the number-one movie on any streaming service, and they were stars on a hit show, too.

As noted, The Wrecking Crew is a film that features Jason Momoa and Dave Bautista as the lead actors. The movie has shot up to the top spot on Prime Video's charts, showing just how popular the actors are. People likely didn't even need to watch the trailer and were drawn to the project because of them.

The Wrecking Crew centers on James (Bautista) and Jonny Hale (Momoa), two estranged brothers who come together after the mysterious death of their father. As they look into his passing, they uncover a conspiracy that threatens to tear the rest of their family apart.

Most reviews for The Wrecking Crew have been strong. It sits at 77% on Rotten Tomatoes, with the consensus saying that it overcomes a relatively thin story thanks to the charming lead actors, some fun action, and a lot of attitude. Bautista and Momoa share great chemistry as siblings, which makes sense given their history.

The Two Actors Also Portrayed Brothers In Apple TV+'s See

If you want to see Bautista and Momoa as brothers before The Wrecking Crew, then you should check out See. This Apple TV+ original series is set in the distant future of a post-apocalyptic world where everyone in the human race is blind. However, things change when two twins are born with the ability to see.

Jason Momoa plays the protagonist, Baba Voss, the adoptive father of the twins. He leads the show for all three seasons, but after a while, the show introduced Edo Voss, played by Dave Bautista. He's Baba's vengeful brother and the show's main antagonist throughout its second season.

Although they are estranged brothers in both projects, Bautista and Momoa form a team in The Wrecking Crew. In See, they are rivals and have an epic showdown at the end of season 2 that remains one of the show's best moments.
