HBO’s “Game of Thrones” has apparently found its Euron Greyjoy in Danish actor Pilou Asbaek, the network has confirmed.
Asbaek appeared on “The Borgias” as Paolo Orsini. He is also playing Pontius Pilate in the latest “Ben-Hur” remake. Last year, Asbaek played opposite Scarlett Johannson in “Lucy.”
Fan blog Watchers on the Wall initially reported, “The actor was spotted shooting today with the cast around [Northern Ireland’s] Ballintoy Harbour in a scene that involved a crowd cheering for Euron.”
The site also had some information on a pivotal scene that its sources claim filmed on Tuesday. For those who want to avoid spoilers, go click on another Wrap story.
