You'll never believe why this 'Game of Thrones' actor was almost fired

For 'Game of Thrones' fans, imagining the series without each actor bringing the magic to life is unthinkable. So what would it have been like without the actress that plays Yara Greyjoy, Gemma Whelan? Weird to think about, huh? “The first lesson I learnt was when I first got the job. No one told me to keep quiet about it,” she told the U.K. Times. “I just thought it was normal to pop it in my Spotlight entry, so I wrote on my CV, ‘This summer, Gemma will be playing Yara Greyjoy in Game of Thrones.’" "The internet went nuts," Whelan recalled. "One of the lovely, lovely producers on Thrones called me into his office and said, ‘This is very serious. We almost can’t employ you because of this.'” Thankfully Whelan was kept on and we have been enjoying Yara Greyjoy ever since!
