Nine noble families wage war against each other in order to gain control over the mythical land of Westeros. Meanwhile, a force is rising after millenniums and threatens the existence of living men.
Game of Thrones is an American fantasy drama television series created by David Benioff and D. B. Weiss for HBO. It is an adaptation of A Song of Ice and Fire, a series of fantasy novels by George R. R. Martin, the first of which is A Game of Thrones. The show was shot in the United Kingdom, Canada, Croatia, Iceland, Malta, Morocco, and Spain. It premiered on HBO in the United States on April 17, 2011, and concluded on May 19, 2019, with 73 episodes broadcast over eight seasons.
Set on the fictional continents of Westeros and Essos, Game of Thrones has a large ensemble cast and follows several story arcs throughout the course of the show. The first major arc concerns the Iron Throne of the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros through a web of political conflicts among the noble families either vying to claim the throne or fighting for independence from whoever sits on it. A second focuses on the last descendant of the realm's deposed ruling dynasty, who has been exiled to Essos and is plotting to return and reclaim the throne. The third follows the Night's Watch, a military order defending the realm against threats from beyond Westeros's northern border.
Game of Thrones attracted a record viewership on HBO and has a broad, active, and international fan base. Critics have praised the series for its acting, complex characters, story, scope, and production values, although its frequent use of nudity and violence (including sexual violence) has been subject to criticism. The final season received significant critical backlash for its reduced length and creative decisions, with many considering it a disappointing conclusion. The series received 59 Primetime Emmy Awards, the most by a drama series, including Outstanding Drama Series in 2015, 2016, 2018 and 2019. Its other awards and nominations include three Hugo Awards for Best Dramatic Presentation, a Peabody Award, and five nominations for the Golden Globe Award for Best Television Series - Drama. Many critics and publications have named the show as one of the best television series of all time.
A prequel series, House of the Dragon, premiered on HBO in 2022. - Zábava
I like how Jorah in the show is this very handsome, attractive older man meanwhile Jorah in the books looks like a divorced dad who works at the local gas station.
Legit looked like a mugshot
Well, he has been through a lot.
I dont think the ai is very accurate here
Look up the awoiaf entry for jorah looks more fittingto me
More stern stronger and not as fat and tired
@@youshallnotpass2156 I mean he is described often as homely/big and hairy
Ha ha ha ha ha... 40-45 years old man is older? Really? He's middle... even Tywin was middle man, old are Luwin/Pycelle/ Qyburn.
Jorah, Brienne and Tyrion ..3 characters in books described as totally ugly ...turned out to be played by 3 really good looking people 😄.
I don't see Brienne as very good looking. lol She is how I viewed her.
Jorah and Brienne is okay, but Peter Dinklage is definitely too good looking for The Imp. The version of the Imp in this video hasn't even received the scar yet.
@@johnnyskinwalker4095 she is much better looking than the art
@@aadn. I mean when I read the books and when I saw her on screen it was essentialy the same
@@coolfer2 Jorah is not OK, Ian Glenn is damn gorgeous for his age. While the Jorah from the books is pretty homely and hairy like a bear.
Seeing how young Jon really is hits like a truck tbh
The man on the show is but a shadow of the child in the books.
@@hammer3721 so he's actually more brave and cleaver in the books?
@@maryamgholizad2798 Yes. In terms of bravery, he lifted Allister Thorne by the neck when he mocked Ned... At 14! In terms of cleverness, he basically designed Stannis' whole campaign plan to reconquer the North from the Boltons and declawed a Karstark conspiracy to betray Stannis. He is basically a sort of young Tywin: pragamtically ruthless. He doesn't play around too much with honour and dignity, unlike Ned and Robb who were blinded by it.
@@hammer3721 I think Jon still has Ned's morality though. But yeah he's much more Stark-like than Ned and Robb. People think the Starks are all about honor but that was really only Ned, who picked it up in the Vale from Jon Arryn. The Northmen are extremely loyal but that doesn't always mean honorable.
@@unc54 Yes, Jon is definitely a morally good guy, but he doesn't bother too much with honour and decorum, since as you rightly pointed out, these are mostly Arryn traits.
Couple things:
1. Ygritte is supposed to be 19 in the book but in the art she looks 13.
2. Joffrey is supposed to have long flowing curls, both the show and the AI have him with very short hair.
He's also supposed to have big pouty lips.
And he's depicted handsome
@@furkanefezerenuz7445 The books claim he is handsome as well. At least Sansa thinks this way, and even the ones that don't explicitly say he is handsome never claim he is ugly.
@@Igor_054 is there anyone else but sansa explicitly stating that he was handsome?
@@furkanefezerenuz7445 Well, he is 12. I don't remember exactly, but I think other girls, like Jeyne Poole might have said he is pretty. Adult women would not be drooping over him, though.
Y’all did not just use a mugshot for Jorah💀
😂😂😂😂
The age gap between him and Daenerys in the books would've gotten Chris Hansen's attention.
@@AH-be6bu It’s not just that. The characters are OBVIOUSLY aged up in the show for modern conventions sake. You can’t be having kids having sex when their 14 years old in the show. And it’s more natural for characters to be much older like Pod, Robb, Margaery, Jon snow, Ned, Catleyn, and some others as they just fit naturally to be older for modern conventions.
Jon is 14 years old in the first book and Dany is 13 years old and she has sex with Khal Drogo whose in his 30s in the book in the first few chapters with intense foreplay, you can’t show that in ANY show EVER as even an adult show like Game of Thrones, and have literal kids having sex. That would be absolutely insane to even THINK about portraying on public TV or in ANY film period!
And so Jon and Dany are BOTH 17 in the start of the show which fits naturally for modern conventions and perceptions on how people are supposed to be in age when being doing all those adult activities like having sex.
Knowing their real ages keep me from reading the books. I don’t want to read pedo sex. 👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽
@@That90sGirl310 Thats a fair point but honestly the sex scenes are not really that much present in the books
The fact that the actor for Jaime Lannister is better looking than his AI mock-up is hilariously on brand.
Season 1 Jaime was ridiculously handsome
@@EndOfSmallSanctuary97 fr no homo
Also idk how these models are generated but jaime season 1 is a better version of the books than rhe model
@@EndOfSmallSanctuary97 IMO he got more and more handsome as the show went on. NKW is a seriously good looking man
dunno, i rly liked the AI drawing, id say they are on par, wich is impressive aswell
This version of the Imp is very accurate. They even put in the mix of blond, white and black strands in his hair and beard. This is a version of Tyrion that makes me think "Oh, I see why they call him the Imp". Just imagine that face with his nose gone, that would be a terrifying sight.
The Tywin one looks pretty much on par with lots of depictions of him. That’s neat
AI drew him with full short beard. In the books, he doesn't have facial hair on his chin,
Charles Dance also looks very like Tywin on the book
I wish Charles Dance had shaved his head for the role, that’s pretty much the only thing he could have done to make his performance as Tywin better than it was, because otherwise he was fucking perfect.
He looks so badass.
Makes him look like Ewan Mcgregor 😅
The castings of Varys, Baelish and Benjen are perfect. And thank god they casted Kit Harington as Jon Snow. He looks much more unique and recognizable in GoT than in ASOIAF. Also, Sophie Turner is pretty, and she did a great job as Sansa, maybe even a perfect job, but book Sansa looks so incredibly beautiful, as well as Lyanna Stark
Kit Harrington is probably the worst actor of the main cast. Although tbf most of his best moments from the book were removed in the show as well. One of the weaker show portrayals of a book character
@@matthewtait2939 lmao no. Kit Harington portrayed Jon perfectly. Oh no he doesn't have emotions... yes because Jon Snow is just that way, he doesn't get angry, doesn't laugh much, doesn't smile much, he is just a quiet and sad character exactly how Kit portrayed him and that was one of the best actings in GoT. You people just don't understand that some characters are different and show less emotions
@@nikoloznasaridze6328 he’s actually witty in the book where as in the show he may as well be a blank piece of wood. Also lmao when he has that monologue to Sam about not wanting to father a bastard, in season 1 his acting is so awful and cringey. Simply a bad actor
@@matthewtait2939 emilia clarke is way worse
@@nikoloznasaridze6328 1) he doesn't get angry"
He has anger issues in the books
2) "Doesn't laugh much , doesn't smile much"
In the books , he has a dry , witty sarcastic sense of humour
3)"He is just a sad and quiet type of character"
He isn't sad all the time and he isn't a quiet character. Not saying he is an extrovert but he isn't an introvert either.
So ya... You are wrong
Benjen Stark was the only one who look very similar in the books.
Book Daenerys looks so beautiful. Also Cersei.
Sansa and Lyanna as well
Well, that is the point
Book Danaerys is 13 years old
@@Hugh_Morris I missed the part where that's my problem
*Proceeds to put dirt in your eyes*
@@critterchamber lmao
So according to ASOIAF…
•Tyrion’s supposed to look like a dwarven Elden Henson
•Arya’s supposed to look like Jonathan Taylor Thomas in his heyday
•Melisandre’s supposed to look like a scorchingly sexy fusion of Rachel McAdams and Kristen Stewart
•Lysa Arryn’s supposed to look like trailer trash from the whiter parts of Illinois who survives off SSI checks and has been divorced three times by dudes with Trans-Am Firebirds and mullets
And Brienne just looks like an Oblivion character
Melisandre is supposed to look like Eva green with red hair and a weirdly smaller face 💀
Well considering Lysa's an alcoholic, that description is pretty accurate.
“Scorching hot sexy fusion”
“Kirsten Stewart”
💀
Is it a show of the actors skills how Show Tywin, Lysa, Tyrion and Brienne are noticeably different physically speaking but the actors still achieve to perfectly convey the feelings and auras of their book counterparts.
Tywin and Brienne are not that different. Tywin just has less hair. And the description of Brienne match the book and show.
@Johnny Skinwalker no way, Gwendolyn Christie is hot as fuck
Jorah looks like a convict.
He looks like he's from Bulgaria 🇧🇬
@@Shadyganleymawn LOL
well I mean he is
@@Shadyganleymawn Yep he does LOL
He is a pedophile in the books. Weird guy
Never read the books. These are fascinating. I knew that all the kids in the books are a lot younger but it never occurred to me that almost all the adult characters would be too. Ned and Cat look to be in thier mid to late 20s.
Ned was 36 and Cat was 35 when the stories began afaik
Jon Snow was 14, Robb 15 and Dany 13
And in the series they were both like 50-60... Wierd.
@@MrExcessum it’s not “weird” at all, they just needed to properly age up the characters to match up to modern conventions as it would make sense for Ned to be 50 in the show as well as Catliyn.
@@Gadget-Walkmen why? If its not their age? Lo
Crazy how we forget that most of the main characters are actually kids in the books.
True. I know audiences judged Sansa in particular quite harshly......bc it was a 16/17 actress saying lines that were supposed to be for a 12 or 13 y/o girl. Of course she came across so insufferable the first season. Kind of a shame.
Just to note also there are large differences in the characters' ages here
The Mountain is 32 in the book and 40 in the show.
Podrick is only 11 at the start of the books but played by a 20 year old
Margeary was 14 (16 when she marries Tommen), 18 in show.
Ygritte is 18, Rose Leslie was 25
Lysa is actually only 30 here, in the show she is 38
Tywin was 55, 64 in the show
Varys was probably in his late-30s whereas Conleth Hill was in his late-40s
Jorah is 44 in book and show
Petyr is 29, 36 in show
Asha/Yara is 21, 29 in show
Loras is 15, 23 in show
Joffrey is 11, 16 in show
Benjen is 30, 37 in show
Catlyn is 33, 40 in show
Lyanna was 16 before she died, played by a 24 year old
Brienne ages up the most. She is only 17 in the books, but 32 in the show
Sansa goes from 11 to 13
Arya 9 to 11
Eddard 34 to 41
Jamie and Cersei are 31 in the books, 36 in the show
Tyrion is actually 24 here, 32 in the show
Jon is 14, 16 in show
Danaerys is 13, 16 in the show
A few others to note are Shae who was only 17 at the start of the books but is 30 in the show.
Tommen goes from 6 to 8 and in season 5 he is changed to a 14 year old
Theon is the only character who's younger in the show at 16, whereas in the books he's 19
Where did you get the ages for Loras and Joffrey? They were born in 282 and 286 AC respectively and Joffrey died in 300 AC so they would've been 18 and 14, not 15 and 11.
EDIT: Every age I've checked so far seems to be 3-4 years less than it should. How did you get these numbers?
@@xtensioncordtv1969 it's their ages at the start of the books, not where they currently are
Bjorson played the Mountain at age of 22, he was a 22 years man weighting 160 kg and 2.06 meters tall.
Halfthor was 28 when he filmed
@@MrMuttly55 Nope, you're wrong. He filmed first time in August 2013, and he was 24 years old. Today he is 34 years old.
Yeah, book Tyrian is much, much less attractive than Peter Dinklage. Especially when he gets his entire nose chopped off in the battle of the black water.
He looks more targaryen than a Lannister. No wonder his father despised him, thinking maybe he's not his true son and killing his wife above that.
@@lolaccount2192 alot of people theorize the mad king raped tywin's wife and that is why Tyrion looks the way he does , that maybe he was one of those births that don't usually survive like we are seeing in house of dragon
please show us all of them, i am interested in seeing the Hound and of course the Baratheons including Gendry.
My mental image for Book!Stannis is Mark Strong with blue eyes.
Melisandre's hair looked like burnished copper, much redder than the art shown here.
Damn Melisandre was destined to be hot
Eva green
When she has her necklace...
I knew Ser Jorah was going to look different but I’m glad they changed him for the show
I was about to say how they nailed Varys and Little finger. But then I kept watching and they really nailed a lot of the characters.
Kit Harrington did a great job and made the role his own, but I do think the younger Jon Snow from the books is a more interesting take for the character.
The characters are OBVIOUSLY aged up in the show for modern conventions sake. You can’t be having kids having sex when their 14 years old in the show.

I'm pretty sure this wasn't created by AI, rather it was created with Artbreeder with a touch of photoshop.
The biggest thing really is the eyes. Khaleesi has Lilac eyes in the book… don’t know why they omitted that simple yet characteristic look we expected to see. Why did they not use contacts? I know they exist because a gf I had years ago had Violet contacts that were utterly AMAZING.
Same reason they opt to have Tyrion not lose his nose.
Too much hastle, considering Emilia would have to wear contacts for hours per day during shoots and in-between. Unlike hair & wig, eyes are very sensitive and delicate.
Violet contacts still look kinda weird. Yennefer had them on the Witcher show and they still look kinda fake.
Show Melisandre looks more accurate to the books IMO. Unnatural shade of red hair, weirdly ageless face. The AI art version just looks like a ginger Instagram model.
They really did a good job with the characters looking like they should. The little differences are acceptable
agreed, and as glibmus says: this is show business, so you want someone likeable, relatable, and good looking. You hire the Dink.
They all look incredibly comley even brienne isn't nearly as bad as I imagined. Benjen stark is shockingly hot😂
Melisandre's book version here looked so much like Eva Green. I guess she would have played that role equally awesome if not better.
For me Eva Green was THE perfect Lyanna. Not whatever that was what we got in the end haha
@@Li_Toblerabsolutely not lol
@@hez859 absolutely yes lol
The guy who play Jacaerys in House of the Dragon would make a great book accurate Jon Snow
damn, never thought about this
Lol Varys is so clearly a Blackfyre it's fucking insane
The eyes are easily explained away with him being from Lys, the real proof for that is his devotion to fAegon and the power in his king's blood
It's screaming at this point!
clearly a merling
@@enderman_666 real
that's interesting if he was!
It always shock me to see how similar Arya, Jon and Lyanna look when i see these AI stuff. Definitely make sense that Arya thought she was a bastard since she looked so much like Jon. And how Ned easily convinced everyone that Jon was his son. House Stark got some pretty strong genes
As Jon Arryn would say, “the seed is strong” or I guess for Jon/lyanna the egg is strong lol.
Sophiet is beautiful and all but her book counterpart looks better imo. Also Loras and Arya straight look the opposite of their gender. No wonder why throughout the show and books Loras got made fun of looking too feminine and Arya for being too tomboyish
The whole point of cutting Arya's hair was to make her look like a male. Then she liked to dress like a male and not wear dresses. The Sansa of the books is described as beautiful, Catelyn thinks she will become much more beautiful than she is. I love Sophie and find her pretty much perfect as Sansa, but I would expect the Sansa of the books to be more beautiful, the same goes for Daenerys.
@@erys8957 Book Daenerys is supposed to be really beautiful, same goes for Cersei.
@@ibrahimmustafa2481 indeed
Had to watch this twice thank you 🙏🏿
I agree with this on so many levels.
For many of the characters, the AI interpretation is so similar to what I imagined them to be like while reading. And for most of the others, it just makes sense.
Although I also find it really neat how well the show portrayal resembles these characters in most cases.
To be fair, most of these are book 1 descriptions and later season pics, but the differences are still significant
Uncle Benjen's casting is straight from the books
Benjen is by far the more authentically Stark-looking person in the show.
Ned looks like Aragorn WTF?
So does Benjen. Who is also a ranger.
Pretty sure Martin thought about Aragorn when he made Ned.
Jon Snow looks likes the kid from the Gotham show
The kid who plays Bruce Wayne?
@@acrsclspdrcls1365 Yup
Varys looks like Sam Smith and Brienne of Tarth looks like Erling Haaland!!
😂😂
Does anyone ever wonder if Benjen had an inclination that Jon was something special. For highborns to take on Bastards was kinda of crazy! He might have been the young wolf for his family but the one that survives is the smartest. Ned never talking about it period would have made Benjen definitely start thinking about different possibilities. It’s like someone won’t tell you what happened so you keep making up stories in your head. He went to rescue there sister and comes back with a kid, everyone heard the rumor that Rhaegar raped lyanna so possibility of it being his nephew from his Sister not his Brother had to have crossed his mind!
I mean Ned could have given him the same story he told Robert, it was "Wylla" whoever that is.
There is strong fandom theory that Benjen knew about Jon Snow but not through Ned but from their sister. In that he knew more about her leading up to her 'abduction' as Ned was with Robert in the Vail. So he probably knew that it wasn't her being abducted but her just running off with heir to the kingdom. She was a wild young woman and he knew that more than Ned did. He comes back with a baby and their sister is dead? He probably put the two together. It may explain why he went to the Watch anyway.
Love how the little finger one is almost identical, perfect casting 🙏
Iam convinced varis is a blackfyre and most likely young griffs uncle
They made so many of these characters look so much younger. Catelyn Stark looked 16!
Because they are younger. Daenerys conquers Meereen at 15💀 I'm glad the show made them older because some stuff just makes no stuff to me.
@@BronzetheGolden but I'm talking about Catelyn!Some of the others I get but omg the grown adult characters looked like they were younger than I am
@@seamus6302 Catelyn in this video is depicted with a much younger face than how I'd have imagined her when reading the books, considering she's supposed to be like 35. There's better art.
@@derpphil5400 Catelyn is 33 when we first meet her in the books and 35 when she dies at the Red Wedding.
@@seamus6302 in the books cat and ned is on middle 30s, still kinda young
When I read the books even if the characters are described as something else I'm probably still going to imagine them as the show's counterparts they just look perfect in their roles.
I watched the show twice or thrice before I read the books and I mostly just adapted to GRRM's written depictions. Much of how characters are described and imagined in the books make little or no sense if you go on imagining the actors in the show. Especially Tyrion, but definitely not only him. Robb in the books is a near beardless auburn-red haired boy aged 14, much younger than his more grown show counterpart. Jorah is very hairy, heavy, and fierce, like the bear represented on House Mormont's sigil. This is just my experience though.
When I started reading the books I imagined them waaay differently from the show actors. :/ My brain just voluntarily made up images based exactly on how they were described.
As for Varys and Osha, the actors and the ones in my head look almost the same.
Oh, and Benjen.
Kit looks nothing like Jon, but his acting is on point
Yeaah the age difference between book and show was kinda, idk, off putting to me whilst reading lol. I’m on the 4th book now and my brain just automatically keeps picturing the older show versions 😅😅
Impressive, very nice!
Let's see Xaro Xoan Daxos and Daario Nahaaris book descriptions!
Man these are spot on.
Jaime and Varys look closest to who played them on tv
Lyanna, Sansa and Dani sure are just gorgeous.
Loved to see how boyish Arya looked like in the art.
So we should be satisfied that our characters from the show look great. Thank you.
Some of the show's castings were absolutely perfect.
Show Catelyn is good, but damn book Catelyn is hot. I understand why Peytr Baelish was so obsessed over her.
Michelle Fairley was 48 at the time of Season 1, whereas in the books Catelyn is 33 when we first meet her, a good 15 years younger. She's also supposed to have a nice rack, because she remembers that on her wedding night, Lord Willam Dustin, upon seeing her bare breasts, joked to Eddard that they were enough to make him wish he'd never been weaned.
All the adults look 15 years younger since they were much younger in the books. At the beginning of GoT Eddard Stark and Robert Baratheon are 35-36 years old not 50+. The rebellion happened when they were 19-22. The show aged up everyone significantly.
It’s for the best as the older adults being older fits them much naturally for it modern conventions and perceptions of age. The characters are OBVIOUSLY aged up in the show for modern conventions sake. You can’t be having kids having sex when their 14 years old in the show. And it’s more natural for characters to be much older like Pod, Robb, Margaery, Jon snow, Ned, Catleyn, and some others as they just fit naturally to be older for modern conventions.
Jon is 14 years old in the first book and Dany is 13 years old and she has sex with Khal Drogo whose in his 30s in the book in the first few chapters with intense foreplay, you can’t show that in ANY show EVER as even an adult show like Game of Thrones, and have literal kids having sex. That would be absolutely insane to even THINK about portraying on public TV or in ANY film period!
And so Jon and Dany are BOTH 17 in the start of the show which fits naturally for modern conventions and perceptions on how people are supposed to be in age when being doing all those adult activities like having sex.
i listen to just this beat on repeat everyday since i found this
They really hit the nail on the head with most of these casing choices.
Looks-wise, both Tyrion and Breanne are horribly miscast. Thank fuck they're both incredible actors.
Tywin is the perfect cast
It’s amazing just how close some of them are.
I loved the way how the series cast them
tv show Arya was completely different physically from how she was depicted in the books and I could not really get over it. the actress was not bad but she did not have the Stark look at all. Also she looks the same from the first season to the last one while in the books she grows up . Jon and Rob looked (and were) way too old to be 14 years old in the first cople season, but overall i liked them.Varys was spot on.
Massie William did the best she could with what they gave her but yeah arya and massie look nothing alike and the her costume designs didn’t help. Robb had red hair it’s pointed out so many times in books that Arya and Jon were the only starks with brown hair and grey eyes
Lol What? You’re COMPLETELY wrong here as Maisie Williams plays and looks like Arya EXACTLY as they both have darkish brown hair have a feisty cheeky tomboyish personality that Maisie plays off PERFECTLY in the show as Arya is a small BEAN of a girl at first! They’re NOT “completely different physically” AT ALL here in the slightest as even the AI portrays them exactly the same as they both visually look VERY similar as tomboyish girls who are small and short which you’re not getting AT ALL here!
She’s NOT “bAd” in ANY way as she’s just PERFECT for the role of Arya even when she’s still small in size because she’s able to perfectly portray her!
Arya in the show looks EXACTLY like how a Stark should be as she TRULY looks like she’s the daughter of both Sean Bean as Ned Stark and can EASILY be in between the same family as Kit Harrington as Jon Snow and Benjen Stark in the show!
She DOES look a stark entirely, no idea on how you can say otherwise!
Even tho Maisie looks the same as she does in season 1, she still portrays Arya EXACTLY as she does and captures her essence to a T.
And Jon and Rob are OBVIOUSLY going to have to be aged up as them being “14 years” isn’t going to fly in a extremely adult show like game of thrones where they have to do ALOT of adult activities.

Jon is 14 years old in the first book and Dany is 13 years old and she has sex with Khal Drogo whose in his 30s in the book in the first few chapters with intense foreplay, you can’t show that in ANY show EVER as even an adult show like Game of Thrones, and have literal kids having sex. That would be absolutely insane to even THINK about portraying on public TV or in ANY film period!
And so Jon and Dany are BOTH 17 in the start of the show which fits naturally for modern conventions and perceptions on how people are supposed to be in age when being doing all those adult activities like having sex.

Arya is supposed to have a long face and grey eyes, as Starks do in general. Their face features are also generally described to be sharp while Maisie has the roundest face ever and brown round eyes.
Also Starks are described as very lean but not short and Arya is supposedly short in the books because she is 9 years old. Maisie is short and petite but i would not describe her as lean in the classical way. The only thing they got right is the brown hair and the fact that she is tomboysh.
Definitely not what most people who read the books before seeing the show would picture her . I am not saying that Maisie is a bad actress, not cute or that she did a bad job playing Arya anyway.
I am sorry. I understand that you may like her and the role she played and that is ok, but to say say that she has exactly the Stark look you must really not have read the books.
0:55 hay que admitir que este se ve mejor en la serie que en el libro
So more or less perfectly casted
Benjen casting was on point.
Jaoqin looks like Kurt Cobain
Is it because of their performances or what? that no matter what, cercei and jaimie will always look perfect as lena and nicolaj.
Incredible work, make one from house of dragons!

this AI kinda confirms the theory of Varys being of Targaryen descent.
He looks like a fat agged Egg (Aegon IV)
There is no doubt for me that varys is of targaryen/blackfyre descend
Varys is a blackfyre...the blood of old valyria
The blackfyre are the descendants of Daemon blackfyre. The pureblooded bastard of Daena targeryan ( his father was revealed to be her cousin Aegon IV )
Explains varys's violet eyes.
His eyes are easily explained because Varys is from Lys, where Valyrian blood is exceedingly strong, even among the common people. The Varys being a Blackfyre theory is more due A) his devotion to Young Griff/Aegon, and B) his close association to Illyrio Mopatis, whose second wife was theorised to be a Blackfyre relative/
Tywin's casting was a perfection ❤
Everyone else: totally different
Uncle Benjen (1:02): totally same
My jaw literally dropped on the Catelyn one😂
And in the books catelyn says, she believes that sansa will become way more beautiful then her one day (and cat is considered as one of the most beautiful woman in the books). If she is right, then sansas beauty will be out of the charts.
Why no one is talking about the purple eyes of varys? Wasn’t that only a valyrian thing?
Yes, it is. I remember reading a theory that Varys is actually one of the last members of house Blackfire, a rougue branch of house Targaryen.
The old blood is still strong in Lys
He is from Lys where Valyrian blood is strong in the common people
I pretty sure GRRM has mentioned that Valyrian features or not at all rare. Varys's purple eyes are probably just because he's from Lys.
@@pauloapaezjorgeemilio1772 no you are wrong. Purple eyes are common in essos, also house Dayne have purple eyes and they have 0 valyrian ancestry
These are pretty much exactly as I pictured most of these characters. This really shows how good some of the casting was, and also how not-good, in some cases.
It aint easy at all finding good actors that will look just like in the books. They did a fantasic job. I mean you can probably find someone for every character that looks like em 100% but then not good actors at all most likley. There need to be a balance,
The casting is pitch perfect for the most part as they ALL capture the essence for the characters are supposed to be!
WoW only a anime can make me happy 😍 so beautiful in the books 😱😍 Danneris is a Angel
Every time I look at book-accurate depictions of characters, I always think “thank god they aged all the characters up for the show”
Exactly. To me, the book characters, especially the children behave too mature for their age. Like Arya, Brand, or John Snow. Didn't feel realistic, unlike the TV show characters whose age feels appropriate.
@@MajklAstarin In the past, people aged quicker because they had to.
War and imminent death are excellent catalysts to the aging process.

Wow. Loras looks like such a kid and Joffrey looks more feminine and Lyanna was pretty okay
Ha!!! Sophie Turner beat the AI!!! Not with looks, but with facial expression
Maisie Williams was pretty close
Nickolaj was spot on but looks better than the AI’s Jaime
Jon and Varys are exactly how they were pictured in my mind.
Emilia Clarke is beautiful actress but damn, Daenerys looks heavenly, if only they could wear contacts for lore-accurate eye color in the Show.
Could you do one on house of the dragon

Funny how nobody ever complained about any of these changes but then proceeded to have a collective heart attack at Corlys in HotD
Bruh that’s completely different. It’s a literal skin change from the books compared to distinct features which u can’t be mad about cause actors r not gonna look like that
@@willlamoureux1690 "uh umm, ummm it's totally different guys! I know they had the budgets for three cgi dragons, entire cgi cities, cgi ships, cgi people and cgi buildings but they must have run out of budgetting when it came to Tyrians nose or to hire ugly looking actors to play ugly looking characters from the book! It's totally different! 🤓"
Not to mention the easy to fix differences like hair colours, skin tones and eye colours that could have easily been fixed using props, wigs, makeup, cgi or hell, hiring other actors.
you can't be mad at the casting of the Velaryons then because the actors arent gonna look white no matter what you do. So you might want to come up with a different argument there
@@stuffynosepatrol it's like I picture a room with red walls and a green lamp. The guy who responded to you gets the red walls right but for some reason makes the lamp orange. You then try to adapt the same room but get the walls green instead of red. It's a noticeable difference so don't try to make it seem like it's on the same league. That being said I really wanted them to get the character details in got right as well, two wrongs don't make it right.
@@buttovelli9198 not really, its more like there is a room with red walls and a green lamp that has been smashed to pieces and is otherwise ugly af. I (even though Im not the one adapting this tv show) adapt the same room but the walls are green instead of red. They (even though they are not the one adapting the tv show either) adapt the room but the walls are red and the green lamp is no longer broken or ugly. They are both in the same league, they are both massive changes.
My point is that aesthetic changes dont matter, but its hypocritical to only get mad over a character having a different race from what they have in the books while ignoring the equally or much more glaring differences in other character designs. I find it suspicious when people are willing to ignore every single other change but for some reason the race change is the only thing that matters to them, it just screams racism to me.
@@stuffynosepatrol I understand
Short and to point, thank you❤️
The Starks and Lannisters are so perfectly cast!
Catelyn in the books is described as a strikingly beautiful woman. I loved Michelle Fairely performance but they could've hired someone much more prettier than her. She is good looking but not exactly a jaw dropping beauty
And cat believes sansa will become even more beautiful then her and its already showing when sansa is just 12 years old, because man STARE at her. If cat is right, sansas beauty will be out of the charts.
Daenerys was too old for the role. I also did not buy her helplessness and fragility in the beginning. Emilia Clarke was fine for the older, strong Daenerys, but she look like a mature woman playing an immature girl in the beginning. Now, this isn't 1994, at least not in a good way, but they could have found a more fragile looking actress who, at the center of the series, showed a real progression towards an insane megalomaniac.
Tyrion looking like he about to call Matt and go for drinks at Jossie's
Jorahs endless thirsting for Daenerys makes more sense now.
Okay... that description of ygritte is soooo hilarious 😂
and somehow descriptions of margerie tyrell, Red woman, cersei, sansa, Daenerys and Robb's mom looks hotter than their casting, while it's opposite for yara, arya, jamie, tyrion and Brienne.
Jamie definitely wouldn't have shagged the descriptive version of Brienne 😂
well book Jaime would, he even had a boner in the bath scene when he saw brienne naked and everything points to that at some point in the books they will also fuck
I think Jamie was a prince handsome in the books too.
TV Lysa may not have been a cow like the book version but she definitely looked just as crazy. Props to the actress.
The casting for Littlefinger could not have been better
Its fun to see Ser Jorah Mormont's mug shot from his DUI
1:39 In the book Tyrion has lost his nose during the Battle of the Blackwater, imagine how that would look. No wonder they call him imp.
In the series they are usually older but more attractive. That's because actors are often selected for their appearance, but they require time to become more experienced and famous.
I think the lannisters had long curly hair in their introductions like the cliche royalty look you get in some older period pieces
That was very eye opening to me. I got to say some characters look better in books, some were close. I forgot varys has purple eyes, why it matters, well if he has purple eyes that's not all velaryians. And also Marjory Tyrell looks like show version of alicent a little bit, but then again Tyrell and high towers are related
Yes Margaery's mother is a Hightower.
I’m soooo glad that “AI” didn’t cast that show!
Song name ???
Wow Dany looks beautiful
The reason Ned looks young is because in the books, he's only 35 yrs old while in the show, he's portrayed by a 55yr old Sean Bean.
