Jon Snow was resurrected and declared King in the North after an epic battle with Ramsay Bolton.
Kit Harington, the English actor who plays him, tried to convince fans Jon Snow was really dead at the end of season five. As if.

He's played by Welsh actor Iwan Rheon, who is certainly not as evil as his "Game of Thrones" character.

The Danish actor who plays Jaime, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, is just as dashing in real life.

English actress Hannah Murray is barely recognizable as Gilly on the Emmys red carpet.

English actor, screenwriter, and film director Roger Ashton-Griffiths looks a lot less silly without that facial hair.

Eugene Simon — seen here with longer hair — is the British actor who plays Lancel.

Cersei left the undead Mountain aka Ser Gregor Clegane alone with Septa Unella. It's a mystery what he did to her.

Gemma Whelan is an English actress and comedian. She looks pretty different out of character.

Jorah is played by Scottish actor Iain Glen who is just as swashbuckling as his character — minus the greyscale.
