Alfie Allen considers Thrones his big break
A recent interview with Alfie Allen has been published on The Guardian, a London-based news and entertainment website. It touches upon Alfie’s music taste, family history, his recurrent roles as a bully, and of course – Game of Thrones:
After Jimmy McGovern’s new BBC series, Accused, there’s the role of Theon Greyjoy in Game of Thrones, the eagerly awaited HBO adaptation of George RR Martin’s fantasy novels, which have sold 7m copies worldwide. “Theon’s a bit of a wrong ‘un, too,” Alfie cheerfully admits. “Game of Thrones is my big break so I’ve got to make the most of it, keep acting well.”
The short interview emphasizes Alfie Allen’s remarkable ability with accents and impersonations he jumps in and out from during the session. At one point he even does Aidan Gillen, his co-star from Thrones.
Hear Me Roar: Well, that’s the second time accents are mentioned in connection with Allen. As Theon, he is supposed to have one in Thrones, and to the delight of fans, he apparently has no trouble with that. We surely hope GOT gives his career a big kick, due to his performance and the show’s success!
