KFC Enlists Actor Kristian Nairn (Hodor) for a GAME OF THRONES-Inspired Commercial

Fast food chain KFC, formerly known as Kentucky Fried Chicken, hired DJ and actor Kristian Nairn, who plays Hodor on HBO's fantasy series Game of Thrones, to help out with a new commercial that's inspired by one of that character's major moments in the sixth season. Spoilers for Game of Thrones ahead...

No fan of the show will ever forget the heartbreaking death of Hodor last season, nor the reveal that the reason he only said the word "Hodor" was because of Bran's time travel ("Hodor," of course, being a portmanteau of the phrase "hold the door"). A similar trick is used in this commercial (via /Film), so take a look:

The lunchtime rush. A hungry horde. Only one man can hold them back. The KFC Ricebox. The same great Original Recipe chicken, just with rice instead of fries.
