Gray Worm was played by Jacob Anderson in the Game of Thrones series.
Jacob Anderson is an English actor and musician best known for his portrayal of Gray Worm in the Emmy award-winning television series Game of Thrones. Gray Worm commanded Daenerys Targaryen’s unsullied army. Anderson was on the show from Season 3 through Season 8. He was elevated to the main cast in the finale. Anderson starred in episodes such as ITV’s Injustice, Episodes, The Mimic and Broadchurch alongside Game of Thrones. When it was revealed that he will be taking part in season 13 of Doctor Who in 2021, the actor became the talk of the town.
Adulthood, Chatroom, 4.3.2.1., Demons Never Die, Comedown, Offender and Overlord are among the film titles of Jacob Anderson. He also has a successful singing career, with songs such as Stronger Than Ever, You’re a Man Now, Boy, Don’t Cry For Me, Aristocrats and Say What You Mean.
Anderson is expected to play Louis de Pointe du Lac in the film adaptation of Anne Rice’s book Interview With the Vampire. It all begins with the limitations of a black man in 1910 New Orleans, and Lestat de Lioncourt’s subsequent seductive invitation to join him as his vampire companion.
Anderson revealed to Collider about his character:
“I appreciate how much Louis suffers during the novel. I like how he complains about his past life, and our Louis is pretty much the same. But I’d say our Louis has a little more spice. I think he’s more likely to have Lestat “He’s a little less moody at first, but we’ll get there! We’ll get there, but I think he’s got a little more punch.”
Anderson’s character is shown talking to reporter Daniel Molloy about Lestat de Lioncourt in the trailer of Interview With the Vampire, saying, “He’s my killer, my mentor, my lover, and my creator.”
