Game of Thrones fans, have you been missing some Natalie Dormer in your life? If so, you can now look forward to seeing her on Showtimeâs Penny Dreadful sequel, per TV Line. Dormer is set to play a character named Magda, a supernatural demon of sorts who can transform into anyone she chooses. If only Margaery Tyrell could have had this power in Game of Thrones, imagine the disasters she could have averted and created!

Beloved Showtime series Penny Dreadful ended abruptly with its third season back in 2016. The new show is a spiritual successful of sorts called Penny Dreadful: City of Angels. Itâs set in Los Angeles in the â30s and will incorporate Mexican-American folklore.
The first series centered around a towering performance from Eva Green as the tortured, complex Vanessa Ives. Will Dormer have a similarly large role? However it shakes out, weâll just be happy to have her back on our TV screens. Per Variety, Nathan Lane will also be part of the cast.
Speaking of Game of Thrones actors holding down franchises, the poster for X-Men: Dark Phoenix, starring Sophie Turner as Jean Grey, leaked:
