  • Gus Kenworthy is a US skier competing at the Winter Olympics.
  • Richard Madden played Robb Stark on HBO's "Game of Thrones."
  • Fans of the show noticed that Kentworthy bears an uncanny resemblance to Madden. 
  • They were freaking out on social media.


There's a "Game of Thrones" look-alike competing at the Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang

Fans of the HBO show noticed that US Olympic skier Gus Kentworthy looks similar to Scottish actor Richard Madden, known for portraying Robb Stark on the HBO series. 

Twitter user Megan Meyers shared side-by-side images on Twitter of the uncanny resemblance. 

Fans naturally freaked out over the two's similarities.

Kentworthy, 26, shared the tweet and wrote, "Uh-oh @_richardmadden they're on to us." 

This isn't the first time fans have connected "Game of Thrones" to the Olympics. 

During the 2016 Olympics, fans were immediately drawn to Brandon Starc, a 22-year-old Australian athlete who competed in the high jump. Not only was his name similar to Brandon Stark, but he also resembled actor Isaac Hempstead-Wright.

Kentworthy will compete in the freestyle skiing slopestyle event on Sunday.
