An old audition tape of Natalie Dormer is making the rounds online again, as fans share her poised confidence in landing the role of Margaery Tyrell in Game of Thrones.

The post features an eight-second clip of Natalie Dormer’s 2011 audition for the role of Margaery Tyrell in Game of Thrones. The video shows Dormer confidently delivering her lines, calmly and seductively, mirroring her character in her first appearance in Game of Thrones. The old audition tape has garnered 3.8 million views in just 24 hours of being posted online.

The old audition tape was recorded during HBO’s casting call for Game of Thrones season two. The confidence Dormer exudes in her role as Margaery Tyrell at the tender age of 29 earned her the role of the ambitious Highgarden noblewoman who navigated the complex web of alliances and rivalries until her untimely death in season six.

Reactions to the old audition tape were swift online as fans expressed their admiration and love for Natalie Dormer. One user commented, “Men don’t go to war anymore because there are no women like her asking us to.” Another user commented, “Why do I even like men look at this absolute goddess?” A third user commented, “Hands down the best cast in Game of Thrones.” A fourth user commented, “When she showed up in GOT, I seriously questioned my sexuality.”

The old audition tape of Natalie Dormer has been hailed as a reminder of her enduring sex appeal and versatility as an actress, more than a decade after she recorded it.
