Hannah Murray As Gilly On Game Of Thrones
Game of Thrones makes it really easy to disguise actors by throwing them into a dirty world where makeup is non-existent, people are filthy, and a hair straightener won’t be invented for many years.

Armin Shimerman As Quark On Star Trek: Deep Space Nine
Quark was a member of an extraterrestrial race known as the Ferengi. He was also arguably one of the funniest characters on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. The role of Quark was played by Armin Shimerman and all of that alien friendly makeup completely covered up what the actor looks like in real life.
He’s not the only Star Trek character to go full-on alien but his transformation was definitely one of the most memorable.
