In the video, Momoa greeted the fans he walks a few steps to a not-so-secret trailer marked "B.A".
Laughing, he joked: "Well, it's not a f**king secret any more is it! Sorry, children. That's what happens, Warner Bros, when you walk out of our set and there's our fans. Hey guys, have a good time."
Still laughing, he continued: "We tried to keep it secret!" before opening the door to Affleck's trailer while still filming and saying: "Sorry, bro. Whoops!"
James Wan's sequel Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, due to land in cinemas next spring, will see Momoa reprise his role as the title character.

Affleck previously revealed why he quit playing the role of Batman after the release of Justice League in 2017.
"I had a really nadir experience around Justice League for a lot of different reasons. Not blaming anybody, there's a lot of things that happened. But really what it was is that I wasn't happy. I didn't like being there," he explained.
"I didn't think it was interesting. And then some really shitty things, awful things happened. But, that's when I was like, 'I'm not going to do that anymore.'"
Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom currently has a release date of March 17, 2023.
