Game of Thrones has been one of the most popular fantasy television series based on a novel of the same name by CS Lewis. For eight years, the series aired on television and managed to gather a huge fan base worldwide. The plot of Game of Thrones is based on nine noble families who are at war against each other to acquire mastery over Westeros.
In the meantime, they are also threatened by external forces who are working to obliterate the human race. Here’s a list of actors from the television industry who would be perfect if Game of Thrones is remade in India.
