Game of Thrones Dragon Photo One of the dragons from Game of Thrones. This guy looks nothing like the actor who plays him. Certainly a good deal of the credit for these transformations goes to the HBO series’ costume and make-up departments (Who knew Hodor had facial tattoos?!), but it’s a testament to the GOT cast’s acting talent that such regular-looking folks are able to believably inhabit characters like shrewd dwarf Tyrion Lannister or turncoat turned torture victim Theon Greyjoy. Some of these actors reap serious benefits from modern-day garb and hair care products (Ygritte sure cleans up nice!), while others rock the sword-and-tunic look so well it’s pretty much impossible to improve upon. We’re lookin’ at you, Emilia Clarke Daenerys Targaryen! If the gallery above teaches us anything, it’s that an insane amount of thought goes into every detail of the Game of Thrones production design. Being reminded of all that intricate attention to detail has got us looking forward to season four more than ever. Of course, if somehow GOT doesn’t have enough nudity for you, you can always check out Natalie Dormer’s topless spread in GQ to hold you over.
