Well, fret not for he has been finally unmasked!<\/p>\n Today we bring to you the man behind the terrifying villain. He is a veteran stunt coordinator named Vladim\u00edr \u201cFurdo\u201d Furd\u00edk. Born in 1970 in Slovakia, he is notable for the excellent stunt work in \u201cThor: The Dark World\u201d (2013), \u201cKingdom of Heaven\u201d (2005), \u201cSnow White and the Huntsman\u201d (2012) and \u201cJohn Wick\u201d (2014).<\/p>\n Source: EliteDaily<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n That\u2019s right! He also portrayed one of the \u201cFirst Men\u201d in episode five of season 6 of the show. Titled \u201cThe Door\u201d, the episode showed how the Children of the Forest created The Night King by impaling him with a dragon-glass dagger.<\/p>\n Without doubt, Furd\u00edk has done some extraordinary stunt work in the show through the seasons as he and the rest of his \u201cGame of Thrones\u201d stunt-team picked a Screen Actors\u2019 Guild Award for Outstanding Action Performance by a Stunt Ensemble in a Comedy or Drama Series.<\/p>\n But wait up! Did you not notice that the Night King looks a bit different than how he used to look? Well, you\u2019re right again as that\u2019s exactly the case. Just look at the image below from the eight episode of season five, titled \u201cHardhome\u201d, and you\u2019ll understand.<\/p>\n Source: EliteDaily<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n This difference is there because of a slight change up in the actors. Earlier, the Night King was portrayed by actor Richard Brake, before Furd\u00edk took the role over. So, who\u2019s your pick for the scarier King of the Wights? Honestly, they\u2019re both scary as hell!<\/p>\n What with the innumerable theories running around the internet about the real identity of the Night King and his supposed connection with our in-house three-eyed raven Bran, we just can\u2019t wait for the final season to air. Alas! It\u2019ll be at least a year before it does arrive. The night is long and full of terrors, indeed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Source: BoT Has the Night King or the Wight King – whatever rings your bell \u2013 being giving you sleepless night as well?
