Jason’s Daughter’s Birth
In an interview, Jason shared how he nearly missed the birth of his first child, Lola, in 2007. At the time, he was in Canada and almost missed her arrival because he was asleep.

Now nearly eighteen, Lola stands just below her father’s six-foot-four frame. Before taking a look at her current appearance, let’s see how she has transformed over the years.
Jason frequently shares images of his children online. In June 2016, he posted an adorable family picture on Instagram, showing himself and Lisa hugging and cuddling their young children.
In November 2016, he posted a throwback image of himself sitting and smiling in a chair with both children lying on him. The photo hinted on how Lola was well on her way to becoming tall.
While both children looked more shy and reserved in 2016, by 2017, Lola and her brother appeared less reserved. In one image, Jason carried his children in his arms while standing in front of a stage. The trio sported tribal tattoos and posed with their tongues out.
For the picture’s caption, Jason wrote, “‘I simply love you more than I love life itself’ listening to Elton with the loves of my life. Raising sensitive savages Priceless day on set proud to be aqua papa. OHANA. [sic]”
In March 2018, Lola showed her playful side by making a funny face with her father in an Instagram post. They posed next to a picture of someone the actor described as his hero.
But during the premiere of Jason’s “Aquaman,” she stood taller than her mother, bearing a striking resemblance to her.

Lola in 2019
By mid-2019, Lola was nearly head-to-head with her mother. She posed alongside Jason and Lisa at the Fendi Couture Fall/Winter show in Rome, Italy.

Jason captured the moment they thanked an “uncle” for the gifts at a skate shop.
Later, they continued celebrating her birthday at Disney’s venue while watching “The Lion King.” Their father thanked Disney and it’s studios on their behalf for allowing them to have his daughter’s party at their venue.
In February 2020, Lola smiled alongside her father, brother, and Dave Bautista. The following month, Jason posted an Instagram video of her navigating a bike challenge during quarantine.

In the video, the little girl road a bike while facing some obstacles like drinking a soda and throwing an ax at the same time.
Although it’s quite evident from his posts, the actor also admitted to acting tough on shows like “Game of Thrones.” He explained, “I may look big and tough, but I’m not,” adding, “I’m nothing like Khal Drogo. I’m not even the king of my own house! I’m absolutely terrified of my wife.”
Describing his family dynamic, he shared, “My wife is very sophisticated and smart and [our kids and I are] kind of like animals that need to be trained a little better.” He added, “I’m constantly a work in progress, and I’ve just been trying to get better as a father and a husband.”
He confessed to being “baffled” by Lenny’s behavior, describing the musician as “way cooler than I am.” Jason revealed that part of the reason for him crying when Lola turned 13 was because he knew at one point, she will start dating and he’ll panic.

He admitted, “I’m not going to do well with it. I’ll just hate it if she brings home some [expletive] bad boy.” His hopes are that she’ll get attracted to someone who is as devoted to her as her mother.
Jason stated, “I’m like, ‘If you find a man who treats you better than I [treat Bonet], good luck!'” He wanted her to find a nice, modern guy, someone like him.
In September 2021, Lisa’s daughter showcased her athletic side while posing with boxing gloves in a gym with her father, brother, and a fourth person. Being the only girl in the group didn’t intimidate the little girl who had her mid-section visible in the gym.
In March 2022, Lola was clearly growing into herself as she attended the screening of Zoë’s “The Batman,” where she and her brother met the film’s stars. The siblings also got to pose alongside a replica of their older sister’s Cat Woman suit.
Lola had grown to a little above her father’s shoulders when they were seen leaving the venue of the conference. It was easy to see how the teenager took on some of her mother’s looks as she grew older.

During an interview that year, the actor opened up about his children’s bedtime rituals and the 1990s sitcom they were binging together. He revealed, “When they were young, it was beautiful because we’d tell stories and have wrestling matches and do all kinds of fun, cute things, but now my children are 15 and 13½, so they generally watch something.”

The trio then moved along to “Seinfeld,” with the star adding, “So, it’s kind of fun that they actually like 90s pop culture [and] sitcoms.”
In 2023, the United Nations shared the 2022 throwback picture of Jason with his children at the Ocean Conference and a representative for the organization at the Ocean Conference. The foundation thanked the actor for being an Advocate for Life Below Water.
That year, Lola and her father were also seen enjoying a movie about family with her brother and other people. In one touching moment, viewers got to see the teenager leaning against their father as they watched their special moments.
By January 2024, Nakoa-Wolf was already towering over his sister when they attended the Los Angeles special screening of “Common Ground” with their father. There the trio posed alongside Demi Moore for a photo.

In June, Lola was the main feature alongside her father in a “Good Morning America” post. In the Instagram post, the pair wore shades and biker jackets while sitting on a motorbike for the premiere of his movie “The Bikeriders.”

She looks just like her mom, wolf you’re gonna be running from the girls in no time, if you’re not already, spitting image of Dad. BOO, the family looks amazing.”
