Jason took the auditioning process for the role of Khal Drogo very seriously. He really stood out because during his audition he performed the Haka war chant, which can be very intimidating. The casting directors loved it so much that they asked if he could do it again so that they could capture it on camera and it got him the part. This role was his major stepping stone to fame.
