13 'Game of Thrones' actors whose real-life accents sound nothing like their characters on the show

Rory McCann has a thick Scottish accent, though he does his best to disguise it with an English accent in "Game of Thrones." If you listen closely, though, you'll hear his brogue slip through from time to time. 

The Oslo-born Kristofer Hivju speaks in a Norwegian accent, while his Wildling character Tormund Giantsbane has a gruff, northern accent. 

Iain Glen is a Scottish actor from Edinburgh, something you might be able to quickly deduce after hearing him speak. In "Game of Thrones," however, his character Jorah Mormont speaks with the Received Pronunciation accent of a former Westerosi lord. 

The Dublin-born Aidan Gillen speaks with a noticeable Irish accent. His "Game of Thrones" character, however, has an accent that has been morphing and changing constantly since his season one debut. 

Actor Conleth Hill is from Northern Ireland, though for "Game of Thrones" he does a refined southern English accent. 

Okay, yeah, Khal Drogo mainly speaks Dothraki, but he throws in a few English words here and there. The actor Jason Momoa, however, is Hawaiian and speaks with a West Coast American accent. 

Born in Rudkøbing, Denmark, Nikolaj Coster-Waldeau speaks with a noticeable Danish accent. He does his best attempt at a Southern English accent to play Jaime, but you can hear his true accent slip through from time to time. 

Despite being Scottish, Rose Leslie speaks with a Received Pronunciation accent — what you might consider a very proper English accent. To play the Wildling Ygritte, however, Leslie does a strong northern English accent. 

Arya's dancing master hailed from the far-off land of Braavos, and spoke with the fictional Braavosi accent. He was portrayed by London-born Miltos Yerolemou, who speaks with a standard English accent. 

Bronn actor Jerome Flynn is from southern England and has an upper-class English accent, but does a convincing northern English accent in the show. 

Liam Cunningham was born in Dublin, Ireland, though you wouldn't be able to tell from the Geordie accent he does while playing Davos. 

Though he was born in Chile, Pedro Pascal was raised in the Southern California and Texas, and sounds nothing like his onscreen persona.
