Michiel Huisman Slams A Popular 'Games Of Thrones' Theory

Daario Slams A Popular 'Games Of Thrones' Theory

All theories must die.

During an AOL Build interview, "Game of Thrones" actor Michiel Huisman was asked about one popular theory regarding his character, Daario Naharis. The theory goes that Daario is actually Ned Stark's brother in disguise.

Remember Benjen Stark? In the show, he accompanied Jon Snow to the Wall and then disappeared on a ranging mission. There's a variety of theories as to what happened, but one of the most popular indicates that he made his way down to Daenerys Targaryen in order to help her reach the Iron Throne.

Unlike the show, as one Redditor explains, Daario's book description makes it seem like he could be in disguise. He has blue hair, he obviously wouldn't be recognized by Dany and he doesn't necessarily act like a typical sellsword, offering his loyalty to Daenerys.

Though there's evidence for it, Daario isn't buying it. "What are those people smoking, seriously?" the actor said.
