Game of Thrones star John Bradley says that Jennifer Lopez saved his confidence when she personally chose him for a role.
However, he was cast in Marry Me after Lopez recommended him to play her manager from his Game of Thrones performance.
The actor played Samwell Tarly in all eight seasons of the fantasy drama, with Bradley taking a two-year break from acting when the show ended in 2019.
Speaking to NME, Bradley said that he had wanted to hold out for character opportunities that differed from timid but loyal Samwell.
