Which NightKing actor do you like best?

The Night King actor that first raised all those dead wildings in front of Jon is a different actor than the one who killed the dragon last week. Who do you prefer as the Night King?

Richard Brake from seasons 4 and 5 was better. More creepy.

Vladimir Kulich took over in season 6/7 and he's fine but lacks the creep factor.

Ya, that's exactly what I felt.

It's Vladimir Furdik.

See, he's so memorable I forgot his last name.

[–] GameOfSlaves (613) 7 years ago

He has fur on his dick?

(Couldn't resist.)

Richard Brake was the living incarnation of the Night King.

Vladimir Furdik looks like he's cosplaying at Comic Con.

There! I said it!

Oh, I didn’t even know that they changed the actor.
But indeed, I felt that the NK just doesn’t seem as terrifying as he did before. I should have guessed that they recasted the role, but somehow I didn’t think of that.

So my answer is obvious: I preferred Richard Brake.

There's not enough make up in the world to hide Vladimir's tiny eyes and his huge nose :D.

Wow, didn't even know the actors were changed. So it makes sense why something felt 'off', other than the arm-throw ice spear being more powerful than Qyburn's contraption...
