Though they may be enemies on screen, “Game of Thrones” actors are friends in real life

The cast that plays together, stays together. This seems to be the motto of the numerous cast of the hit TV series “Game of Thrones.” Thought it would be difficult to get all of the actors who play in the show in one photo together, a handful of the those who are currently filming in Croatia have recently gotten together for a day out on the beach and have posed for one epic shot.

The number of actors has been limited by the fact that only few of the members of the cast have the privilege to shoot in King's Landing, which is located in real life in Croatia. Because the weather is warming up, some of the actors decided it was a good idea to go for a dip in the Mediterranean.

Looking at the photo, you can make out from left to right: Pedro Pascal (Oberyn Martell,) Lena Headey (Cersei Lannister), Nikolaj Coster-Waldau (Jaime Lannister), Gwendoline Christie (Brienne of Tarth), Indira Varma (Ellaria Sand), Finn Jones (Loras Tyrell), Charles Dance (Tywin Lannister), Conleth Hill (Varys) and Peter Dinklage (Tyrion Lannister).

Because of the size of the show, “Game of Thrones” is actually filmed in several locations at the same time, with more than one director, which is how they manage to get so much footage finished on time.

Seeing this photo, the members of the cast shooting in Iceland, like Kit Harrington (Jon Snow), will probably be looking at it and then phoning George R. R. Martin, writer of the books, to write them right into King's Landing.
