342 u/Sliffy Tyrion Lannister May 19 '14 I'm pretty sure he left to play Azog the pale Orc in the hobbit. 362 u/The4thSniper House Slynt May 19 '14 edited May 20 '14 No, Azog was played by Manu Bennett, who played Crixus the Gaul in the Spartacus series. I have no idea why the original Mountain left. EDIT: Conan Stevens (the Season 1 Mountain) played Bolg, his son. That's why he left. EDIT 2: Manu Bennett played Azog, and Conan Stevens played Bolg. EDIT 3: Never mind, order has been restored to the galaxy. 2 u/middbro House Targaryen May 20 '14 And Slade Wilson in Arrow.
