Gibberish Bloopers

It’s not uncommon for actors to forget their lines, especially when they’re in a foreign language. When this happens, the production has to pause, the actors need to be reminded of their lines, and then the scene is filmed again, which can be time-consuming and frustrating. But what happens when the language you’re supposed to speak is completely made up? In that case, the actor might just have a chance to fool their audience.

This is exactly what happened on the set of Game of Thrones when Iain Glen forgot his lines in the fictional Dothraki language and the language creator wasn’t around to help. Instead of admitting defeat, the actor improvised by speaking in total gibberish. To everyone’s surprise, he made it seem completely legit, and no one could call him out on it. It just goes to show that sometimes, a little improvisation can go a long way in making a scene work.
