Why Josef From Yellowstone Prequel 1883 Looks So Familiar

If you actually recognized Marc Rissman from his appearances on "Game of Thrones," you're officially a GoT superfan. Rissman played Harry Strickland, the leader of the Golden Company. They're the fearsome mercenary army whom Cersei Lannister (Lena Headey) hires to bolster her troops in Season 9. In the end, they don't play a major difference in the war for the Iron Throne. Like most other residents of King's Landing, they perish when Daenerys (Emilia Clarke) torches the town with dragon fire. Harry Strickland only has a few lines, mostly appears in shots from behind, and he dies while fleeing the burning city.

Rissman had a bigger part in "The Man in the High Castle," when he played Wilhelm Goertzmann in the fourth and final season. Goertzmann is the high-ranking Nazi official who helps John Smith (Rufus Sewell) orchestrate a putsch to overthrow the leadership in both the American Reich and the original Greater Nazi Reich. Goertzmann betrays and murders the Nazi High Command, then appoints himself the new Führer.

Otherwise, Rissman has appeared in the American World War II horror film "Overlord," and the British Viking-era historical drama "The Last Kingdom." No doubt his role on "Yellowstone: 1883" will introduce him to an even bigger audience.
