Interesting facts about Peter Dinklage

Despite evidence supporting the contrary, Peter Dinklage isn’t convinced that women appreciate his sexiness. “They’ll say, ‘Oh, he’s so sexy’, but women still go for the guys who are 6’2″, he was quoted saying.

Although he’s as badass as Tyrion Lannister, he does not enjoy the sword play acting he must do. He says, “The fight scenes are all a big lie. The whole time, you’re trying not to get hit in the eye with a sword, and you wish you had on a welding helmet.”
Even as a starving actor, Peter refused to take parts as elves, leprechauns or anything that made him feel “dirty.” As a result, “I said no a lot,” he confesses. “A lot.”

Dinklage was born with achondroplasia, which is a type of dwarfism that only affects the long bones in the arms and legs.

He is a vegetarian.

Peter happens to be best friends with Steve Buscemi. They have been close since they met in 1995.

He is the only American Game of Thrones cast member.

He lives in upstate New York with his wife, Erica Schmidt, and their daughter Zelig. He especially enjoys being in his herb garden.

Lena Headey (Cersei Lannister) were friends long before Game of Thrones. He was apparantly the one who suggested her for the part.

He is an avid animal rights activist and is against animal testing.

Having studiously rehearsed an exchange with Bronn (Jerome Flynn) where he expresses his wish to die ‘at the age of 80 with wine in my belly and a girl’s mouth around my c**l’, instead he came up with ‘at the age of 80 with wine in my belly, and a girl’s cock around my mouth’. They apparently laughed so much they had to stop filming for a day.


He’s classically trained in acting. A student of the craft, he studied acting in college, graduating from Bennington College in Vermont with a Bachelor’s in Drama. He later returned to his alma mater in 2012 as an honored guest, and gave the commencement speech to the graduating class.
