Career Highlights

Joe Naufahu has been recognised by Kiwis since before his onscreen career kicked off. Following an injury, the former professional rugby player followed his one other passion: acting. First gaining exposure on Kiwi TV series Go Girls, Naufahu harked to his athletic background portraying All Black Mils Muliaina in TV movie The Kick, as well as Frank Bunce in mini-series Jonah. But Naufahu won’t be typecast. Joe expressed his versatility in crime thriller movie The Last Saint before securing the knockout role of Khal Moro in the sixth season of legendary HBO TV series Game of Thrones. Naufahu has since worked on international feature film Enemy Within, acted as a core cast member in Kiwi rugby series Head High and continues to grow his portfolio.
