10 replacements of the actors of the series "Game of Thrones" that went unnoticed
The creators of the famous TV series attracted almost fifty actors for filming. This does not mean that they have been involved in all eight seasons. After all, according to the plot, the characters of "Game of Thrones" were dying, leaving the mystical lands. And they could also be replaced by another actor. Surprisingly, the audience didn't even notice the catch.
Daario Naharis
The most scandalous replacement occurred with Ed Skrein, who chose a role in the blockbuster "The Carrier". There he played instead of Jason Statham. The producers of "Game of Thrones" invited Michiel Hesman, explaining what was happening with a new version of the image. However, the new version, like the previous one, did not answer the book source.
Mountain
The most desperate character of the series. Initially, the role was played by Conan Stevens. After the second season, the producers decided that it was too expensive for the project. Conan Stevens accepted an offer to star in The Hobbit. Stuntman Ian White made up for the loss by playing the elder Clegane. Later, Bjornson was invited to the role. Meanwhile, the stuntman played three roles. Viewers can see him in the first season as a White Walker, in the third – as the giant Dongo, in the fifth – as Wun-Wun.
Dickon Tarly
First, the producers invited actor Freddie Strom. In the seventh season, it became difficult for him to combine employment in Game of Thrones with another TV series From Time to Time. Therefore, he had to be replaced by Tom Hopper.
Tommen Baratheon
In the third season, Callum Warry did a great job as a little boy. In fact, he just had to sit still and change his expression in time. In the following seasons, the character grew up, the role became more interesting, required more acting skills. Therefore, the producers invited Dean-Charles Chapman, who coped well with the role of Margaery's fiance.
Myrcella Baratheon
The reason for the replacement is the same as in the story of Tommen Baratheon. Emmy Richardson as Myrcella had to go to Dorne to go down the aisle with the heir of the House of Martell. Perhaps the audience would not have noticed the appearance of the new actress Nell Tiger-Free. However, the first performer reacted as befits a real princess. Amy Richardson posted a funny photo on the social network where she portrays an unemployed princess.
Beric Dornarrion
Viewers are unlikely to remember David Michael Scott in the role of Beric Dornarrion, since he did not figure much in the first season. It remains a mystery why to arrange a casting for an episodic role that an ordinary statistician could handle. Richard Dormer was invited to shoot in the remaining seasons.
Three - Eyed Raven
Fans did not pay attention to Straun Roger, who was filmed from afar only in the last episode of the fourth season. But the audience rejoiced when the creators of the series announced that Max von Sudorf accepted the invitation to play the Three-Eyed Raven.
Lothar Frey
The character of Tom Brooke and Daniel Tite got an unenviable fate. The poor guy ended up in a pie that Walder Frey ate. Lothar became an eyewitness and an unwitting tool of Arya's revenge for the death of his relatives. In favor of his innocence, it can be mentioned that he was not present at the Red Wedding, which was shown in the third season.
King of the Night
Given the specific makeup, it is difficult to notice the substitution. For the first five seasons, Richard Break was the King of the Night. His cunning was known by Custer's son, who turned into a White Walker. After the replacement, the role went to Vladimir Furdik. Before that, he tried to play a White Walker, but did not pass the casting due to Jon Snow's decision.
Celise Baratheon
It is unlikely that the audience remembered Stannis' wife played by Sarah McKeever. In the first season, she didn't have time to get used to it. Tara Fitzgerald played so talented that even Stannis did not notice the transformation of his wife.
