If you were watching the Game of Thrones (https://www.popsugar.com/Game-of-Thrones) season seven premiere and wondered why Joshua Jackson (https://www.popsugar.com/Joshua-Jackson) cosplaying as Jack Sparrow is trying to convince Cersei to marry him, you may have been a bit confused. But despite Euron Greyjoy's startling resemblance to a certain Dawson's Creek (https://www.popsugar.com/Dawson%E2%80%99s-Creek) heartthrob, he is in fact played by a Danish actor who is **t well k**wn in the United States.
Meet Johan Philip "Pilou" Asbaek, a 35-year-old hailing from Copenhagen, Denmark, who joined Game of Thrones in season six as Euron Greyjoy, younger brother to Theon and Yara's father Balon (and also Balon's murderer). Euron is **w King of the Iron Islands and has proposed an alliance with the Lannisters at King's Landing, so Asbaek is presumably sticking around Westeros for a while.

This is Asbaek's first major TV project outside of his home country. After graduating from (http://www.scotsman.com/lifestyle/culture/film/borgen-s-pilou-asbaek-on-his-somalian-pirate-film-1-2926468) the Danish National School of Theatre in 2008, he starred in season two of the Danish crime ****** The Killing and then Borgen, a political drama on which Asbaek played a public relations/communications specialist named Kasper Juul.
In addition to Game of Thrones, in recent years Asbaek has appeared in a number of bigger name films, like The Great Wall with Matt Damon (https://www.popsugar.com/Matt-Damon), Ghost in the Shell alongside Scarlett Johansson (https://www.popsugar.com/Scarlett-Johansson), and as the villain Pontius Pilate in the 2016 version of Ben-Hur.

But Game of Thrones is definitely where Asbaek, who goes by "Pilou" because it was a childhood nickname given to him by his mother, has gained the most fame - and it sounds like it has been a lot of fun for him. He recently told MTV News that Euron is going to be stirring up a lot of trouble (http://www.mtv.com/news/2998984/game-of-thrones-season-7-euron-greyjoy-satisfied/) in season seven: "E**ugh to get satisfied - good satisfied."
