Here's What The Game Of Thrones Characters Look Like Out Of Costume

If you're not watching Game of Thrones, you're definitely missing out. Even if you're not up to date with the story line, odds are you know some of the characters involved. You also probably know that the character costumes and scenery are all extravagant! What else would you expect from an HBO show about dragons?

A lot of the actors are pretty well-known, but when they're all done up in their costumes and make-up they're hard to recognize! Here are some of the main Game of Thrones characters and what they look like out of costume.

Richard Dormer as Beric Dondarrion

He really does have two eyes! The beard is the same, though.

Conleth Hill as Varys

More like HAIRYS, am I right?

Emilia Clarke as Daenerys Taragaryen

Bye-bye, blondie!

Alfie Allen as Theon Greyjoy

Look familiar? Alfie is the real-life brother to singer Lily Allen. She even wrote a song about him!

Iwan Rheon as Ramsay Bolton

Maybe we can trust him in real life, but certainly not on the show.

Luckily for Murray (unlike her character), she is not married to her father in real life.
