Some Actors Turned Down GOT
Before the show became so popular and successful, a few actors turned down potential roles in it – bet they’re regretting that now! Gillian Anderson had her shot at a mystery role (was it Cersei, perhaps?), but that chance is long gone. Dominic West (from The Wire) also rejected a spot on GOT – fans think he could have been Mance Rayder. Too late now!

Mother Of… Sea Slugs?
Scientists discover new species all the time – pretty cool actually, when you think about it. Well, turns out even scientists watch Game of Thrones. After discovering a new kind of sea slug near Brazil, the marine biologists thought the animal’s coloring was eerily familiar – and realized the pale yellow reminded them of Daenerys Targaryen’s hair. In her honor, they named the slug species Tritoni khaleesi.
