Sophie Turner reveals secret behind ‘GoT’ auditions

Sophie Turner has shared a funny anecdote with her fans that she forgot to inform her parents about her auditions and role in ‘Game of Thrones.’ According to People, the 23-year-old actor auditioned for her HBO series when she was just 13 years old.

The actor who rose to fame for her eight-season run as Sansa Stark on ‘GoT’, shared the funny incident when she sat down with her Dark Phoenix co-star Jessica Chastain for Vogue Paris and as People cited, explaining that her mother was unaware of her initial audition for the role.

The topic popped up when the two actors chatted about their families, and after Chastain asked, "so what did your parents say when you told them you wanted to get involved?” “Well, I didn’t tell my parents I auditioned for Game of Thrones. They just kind of found out,” Turner surprised all with her reply.

The actor who recently got hitched to Joe Jonas went on to narrate that the fantasy drama’s casting director, Nina Gold, went on a search hunt in various schools to find the appropriate characters for the hit series and that is when she casually thought to audition for it.
