Ian Whyte on Melting the Iron Throne & Becoming The Mountain
In this week’s Game of Thrones interview, Flicks And The City’s Jan Gilbert chats to Ian Whyte who plays not 1, not 2, but 3 roles in the hit show!
Fans of GoT have seen Ian on screen as Gregor Clegane – aka The Mountain – in season 2, as Mance Rayder’s Giant in season 3, and as a White Walker in the first episode of season 1.
Check out the video to see Ian talk at Wales Comic Con about what it’s like playing such a brutal character as The Mountain, why Gregor would like to melt down the Iron Throne and turn it into a sofa, shooting scenes with Charles Dance (Tywin Lannister), becoming a Giant for the first time on screen, and filming in Iceland:
