Eurovision 2020: From Queen’s lover, presenter of the Eurovision Contest

We are talking, of course, for the actror-musician, Michiel Huisman, who was in the casting of HBO Games of Thrones, playing Daario Naharis’s (Daenerys) lover . The Dutch actor is one of the favorites to be one of the three Eurovision 2020 presenters in Rotterdam in May.

From Game of Thrones presenter of Eurovision 2020?

The producer of the 65th Eurovision Song Contest, Sietse Bakker, in a recent television interview, revealed that there will be three presenters. Being asked for Michiel Huisman, he replied:

“Huisman is a good name! Who knows …”

We already know from the commentator of the Dutch broadcast, but also from a member of the selection committee of the country, Cornald Maas, that the show will feature two men and one woman, who have been selected! Of course so far no announcements have been made by the organizers so all scenarios are possible.

Who is Michiel Huisman?

Michiel Huisman, 38, is a Dutch actor and musician. He has starred in international productions, such as in the movie “Wild” or the series “The Haunting of Hill House”. But he became widely known through Game of Thrones, playing Daario Naharis, one of Queen Daenerys’s generals, who in the process became her fiery lover.

He was a guitarist and singer for the band Fontane, with which he released three singles in the 2001-2003 period. In 2004 the band broke up and Huisman pursued a solo career, releasing in the following years, an album and two singles.

In recent years he has devoted himself to acting, freezing himself, as he declared, his career in music.
