HBO Max has ordered eight episodes of Jason Momoa’s rock-climbing competition series, “The Climb.”

The streaming service describes “The Climb” as “a visually-arresting and life-changing adventure that represents the foundations of rock climbing and the exploration of the human spirit.” It continues: “In this all-encompassing competition, amateur climbers are put through a rigorous series of mental and physical challenges, utilizing the most intimidating ascents in the world to crown the world’s best amateur climber.”

That’s some pretty earth-y stuff for Aquaman.

Momoa will appear on-camera during episodes, an HBO Max spokesperson told TheWrap. As will his partner in this thing, professional rock climber Chris Sharma.
