Top 10 Game of Thrones Actors You Won't Recognise Out of Costume

Yes, it's the return of HBO's wildly popular "Game of Thrones." While the new season is upon us, what is trickier however is being able to spot the actors out of costume. And some actors are so normal in real life you wouldn’t even look twice if you saw them walking down the street.

Without the large beard and huge crown it is almost impossible to recognise this clean cut version of Robert Baratheon. He just doesn't look like the type of man who would spend his time on the throne whoring, drinking and hunting.
9. Rory McCann

You would think after four seasons this gentleman would be easier to spot in a crowd. Hardly noticeable if he hasn’t been sat in a make-up chair getting his severe facial scarring attached for his role.
8. Aiden Gillan

This actor looks far from the master manipulator and brothel owner that he portrays throughout the seasons as Petyr Baelish. Looking less sinister in reality than the man responsible for the murder and misery of many women.
7. Lena Headey

It’s hard to believe with her gown removed and jeans back on that actress Lena Heady could ever be the lady responsible for evil Joffrey Baratheon.
6. Emilia Clarke

Without the locks of blonde hair and army beside her it is hard to see Clarke as Daenerys Targaryen. Mother of Dragons so it is!
5. Sibel Kekilli

Sibel Kekilli plays the role of Shae a prostitute who begins an exclusive relationship with Tyrion Lannister. She’s straight-forward with her words but with-holding with the history of her own past and is one of the seasons most mysterious characters.
4. Isaac Hempstead Wright

It’s everyone’s favourite dreamer Bran Stark, played by Isaac Hempstead Wright, it appears the actor who plays the son of Ned Stark is blessed with the magical power of greensight but in reality not 20/20 eyesight.
3. Richard Madden

Where’s the signature beard and the moustache worn by the former King of the North? Robb Stark is played by Madden who clearly chooses a much cleaner cut after it all wraps up on set.
2. Jason Momoa

Powerful warlord Khal Drogo, the unfortunate husband of Daenerys Targaryen, looks less menacing without the heavy eyeliner and his heavy chest on display.

It has to be said that Brienne of Tarth doesn’t half scrub up well. Completely unrecognisable hitting the red carpet channeling 1920’s chic it is hard to believe that throughout the seasons she is mocked for her looks.
