Bohemian Rhapsody, a movie about the rise of the British rock band Queen, comes out later this year. With Mr. Robot star Rami Malek playing lead singer Freddie Mercury, it looks pretty great, but Game of Thrones may be interested to hear that one of our their own is also in the mix: Aidan “Littlefinger” Gillen plays music industry vet John Reid, who managed the band during the production on some of their biggest hits. See if you can spot him in the trailer:

Littlefinger’s not the only one with a new project on the way. Below, check out the trailer for In Darkness, an upcoming thriller starring and co-written by Game of Thrones star Natalie Dormer (Margaery Tyrell). Dormer plays Sofia, a blind pianist who gets caught up in an underground world of hitmen and mobsters after she overhears the death of a neighbor. It’s intense stuff:

In Darkness is due out next week. It also stars Thrones veterans James Cosmo (Lord Commander Jeor Mormont) and Ed Skrein (Daario Naharis 1.0).

Finally, Emilia Clarke (Daenerys Targaryen) is still getting out there to promote the everloving beejesus out of Solo: A Star Wars Story, which also comes out next week and which will proooooobably overshadow In Darkness, with no offense meant to Dormer. She talked it up just lately on The Graham Norton Show. Watch some clips below:

Clarke’s mom sounds like a blast:

Below, Clarke tells the magical story of when Brad Pitt bid over $100,000 to spend some time with her:

Finally, while this isn’t really news, this image of Maisie Williams as Isabel Baxter in Mary Shelley is giving me serious Catelyn and Lyanna Stark vibes. Just me?
