"Game of Thrones" Ramsay Bolton actor, Iwan Rheon is actually a songwriter and singer in real life who could sweep anyone away with his sweet voice and guitar strumming skils. He was already a musician before joining the cast of HBO's massive hit.
If followers of "Game of Thrones" would pick someone from the series who seems to have a secret identity as a singer-songwriter, they would likely choose Kit Harington who plays the Stark bastard son Jon Snow, according to Refinery29. The character is now known as a Stark-Targaryen, one who has the right to play the game of thrones. His face looks to have full of emotions typical of musical artists.
However, the Bolton which Snow defeated in the "Battle of the Bastards" is the musical artist in real life. Rheon is actually the Ed Sheeran of Westeros, if he had not been devoured by his own vicious dogs as per his wife Sansa Stark's doings. It was his fault though, and many fans of the series were overjoyed not to see his character anymore while commending the actor for doing a very good job.
He has lots of singing performances posted on YouTube, some of which are already a bit old. He does the guitar, singing and everything. He still have the bastard, sadistic and evil Bolton face people hate to see, but seeing his soft and real side is another story.
The 31-year-old Welsh actor is a sensitive singer-songwriter who loves singing more than acting. He admitted that acting is amazing as a fantastic job since it brings him to places and he gets the chance to work with wonderful people. However, it is still a job while he sees music as something he loves to do.
"Going into the studio to record was a holiday for me. It's fun, I really love it," the Bolton actor previously confessed to The Telegraph. "It's totally within my control, whereas acting is often out of my control."
The Welsh actor cited acting having a director and a script. Even those that are filmed can be edited and changed, something one cannot do with an acoustic song. He hates cheesy love songs so he does not write them. The self-confessed snoppy singer-songwriter-actor has his first album, "Dinard" released in April 2015.
