These Game of Thrones Audition Stories Will Make You Love the Cast Even More

"My drama teacher just threw in me with a bunch of my other friends and we all auditioned together," Turner recalled about in a 2016 podcast with The Hollywood Reporter. "I didn't know HBO, I didn't know Game of Thrones, I didn't know George R.R. Martin. She brought a ton of us up to the front of the class and was like, 'You guys are gonna audition for this because you fit the bill.' And for ages I was calling it 'The Three Kings.' We just kinda did it at lunch time and we almost forgot. We were kinda like, 'Oh my God, we have to audition.' The initial audition, I think it was just a scene that they actually cut out of the pilot. It was Sansa and Arya arguing. It was very lighthearted."
