"Aquaman" star Jason Momoa sent a sweet video message to Dwayne Johnson's daughter, Tiana Gia, 3, on Monday to convey his best wishes on her birthday. The 48-year-old retired professional wrestler took to Instagram to share the reaction of his daughter as he played the video message on his television screen.

"We can hang out in the ocean, I'll have a present for you and Jazzie..." Momoa said in the video. "We can get together and play, maybe rock climb, maybe go surfing. I just wanted to say that I'm sorry that I couldn't be there, but I love you."

"Tell your papa that I love him, too, and I will see you soon. Happy third birthday!" he added. Johnson was very appreciative of the video message and captioned the video, "I had to make the call...it’s what daddy’s do. I can’t thank my brother @prideofgypsies enough for making this adoring 3yr old’s birthday the best EVER."

"Her reaction is priceless and what it’s all about," he added. "I love you back, uso and this kind of stuff will ALWAYS be the best part of our fame."

"You epitomize one of my favorite quotes, 'It’s nice to be important, but it’s more important to be nice.' Thanks for having my back - I’ll always have yours," he concluded.

The 41-year-old actor also posted the same video on his Instagram on Monday and responded to Johnson's appreciative caption.

"When uncle Maui calls you up and asks for a favor. All my love to baby jazzy and baby tia happy birthday beautiful," Momoa wrote. "I know what my kids are getting for their birthday Uncle Black Adam cheeehuu aloha j."

Johnson posted a video of him and her daughter on Sunday watching Momoa's "Aquaman" together and shared her fanatic reaction on Instagram.

"Look what AquaMan just did to that man. The birthday girl Tia is OBSESSED with @prideofgypsies!!" he captioned. "She didn’t even wait til I finished the question, before answering definitively, “AquaMan.” The irony here just makes my soul laugh and heart smile."

Johnson is currently filming his upcoming movie, "Black Adam," which is slated to release on July 29, 2022. On the other hand, Momoa will be seen in "Aquaman 2," which is scheduled for Dec. 16, 2022, release.
