Gemma Whelan from ‘Game of Thrones’ auditioned to play Yara with *that* horse scene
When Yara Greyjoy reunited with her long-lost brother on Season 2 of Game of Thrones, the two did not recognize each other. They’re ignorance didn’t make the scene that followed you know, the one involving fondling and a horse any more comfortable to watch.
Well, turns out that moment was one of the scenes Gemma Whelan, who plays Yara, had to enact during her GoT audition.
There was one major difference, though: instead of Theon “working away on” Yara (Whelan’s phrasing) in the audition, Yara was “worrying on” Theon. Also, Whelan was sitting on a chair instead of a horse, but, you know, that’s to be expected.
Best of all, Whelan got to tell this whole story on Friday’s Graham Norton Show in the presence of Morgan Freeman and Michael Caine, no less.

Get ready, ‘Game of Thrones’ is hosting an open casting call
Practice your cursing and probably playing dead Game of Thrones is reportedly casting extras in Dublin on April 8.
Well, not just Game of Thrones, but the company that handles its extras casting, The Extras Department, will host a casting call in its office for multiple projects, including Thrones.
Per the casting call, as reported by Irish Central, “This even is FREE to the public. There is no need to register and drop-ins are very much welcome.”
The Extras Department’s website proudly declares that it has cast extras on Game of Thrones since the very beginning (there’s also a terrifying but apt image of Jon Snow trying not to get trampled by dozens of them).
The catch is, obviously, you need to be in Dublin this weekend. How much are plane tickets again?
Update, 12:30 p.m. ET: Despite online reports, The Extras Department has updated their Facebook page to note this unfortunately isn’t true. “Our casting event this weekend is NOT for Game of Thrones.”

New HBO promos unite all the shows and all the ‘Game of Thrones’ characters
Hard as it is to believe, the characters on Game of Thrones are all part of one big old family: HBO. In a series of new promos featuring characters from all its original programming, the cable giant gave us a little tease of new Game of Thrones costumes, and the giant crossover show we didn’t know we wanted.
All three ads show characters laughing, singing, exhaling (and in the case of The Leftovers, smoking) until they match the the note that introduces every HBO show.
The good folks at Screencrush compiled all the Game of Thrones costumes into a handy little gallery, but you should watch the video promos for the full effect of everyone singing the same note (and Hodor contributing his usual two cents).
