‘Game of Thrones’ News: Cast Teams With Coldplay for a Series Musical
According to L.A. Times, Red Nose Day -- a U.K. charity to drive famine relief -- has ventured out and made its way over to the U.S. to support children in need, living in poverty or hungry.
The cast of "Game of Thrones" has come together with the band Coldplay to form a mock staging of "Game of Thrones: The Musical," in which stars of the show were singing with themes inherent to the hit HBO series.
Red Nose Day aired on NBC Thursday and the special with these actors and Coldplay aired with it, which was an effort to raise funds for the charity in the U.S.

Cast members are actually seen to be quite talented with their vocal talents, singing variations of a few different songs, which included one with Peter Dinklage that was more of a rock version befitting the "Game of Thrones" universe, although also mockingly egotistical for actor's character in the series.
One of the songs, which was supposed to be featured as the "main event" for the impending mock musical, was "Red Wedding."
"If you're here for the wedding of Robbie Stark, keep the car running, there's no need to park. He's not going to make it through the night," the actors sang. "Red wedding, red wedding, lots of stabbing and a bit of beheading, the rains of Castamere are here to stay."
The sketch also featured Emilia Clarke doing a reggae number called "Rastafarian Targaryen." Clarke was surprisingly well-tuned for a British actress to perform the reggae essence of the song.
"Got so many names, I'm Queen of the Andals, Queen of da Meereen, yeah, you can kiss me sandals," Clark sang in the song.
Pop Sugar reports that Coldplay frontman Chris Martin was a passionate fan of the show and eager to do the sketch, for which he and his bandmates provided song-writing and coaching skills, as evidenced in the sketch.
