Australian actress Essie Davis has signed onto "Game of Thrones" season 6, EW has confirmed.
Davis is best known as the star of the 2014 horror film The Babadook. She was also in the two Matrix sequels and the Aussie version of "The Slap" miniseries.
Davis is reportedly playing a member of a traveling theater troupe in Braavos that stages a play called “The Bloody Hand” — a version of all the King’s Landing intrigue that’s gone down on the show since the series began (apparently, even in the wild continent of Essos, the Lannisters’ antics are considered pretty dramatic stuff).
During this play-within-the-show, Davis portrays Cersei Lannister.
"Game of Thrones" returns next spring.
