Natalie Dormer is most known for her roles on The Tudors and Game of Thrones, but the British actress has appeared alongside Jennifer Lawrence, Liam Hemsworth and Josh Hutcherson in the final two installments of The Hunger Games franchise too.

Her latest movie role is actually portraying two sisters, they're twins, in The Forest, which released to theaters across the United States today, Jan. 8.
For promotion for the horror flick that tells the tale of Aokigahara Forest in Japan, which is also known as Suicide Forest, through Dormer's characters, she did a Reddit AMA Thursday.

On Wednesday, the movie's Twitter account did a little promo for the AMA with a picture of Dormer holding up a sign including the movie poster and when the AMA would occur.
The AMA took place Thursday, in which the actress used the user name NatalieInTheForest, which was a different user name compared to her previous AMA where her user name was Natalie-Dormer, so Reddit users speculating it wasn't really her on the other side answering the questions.
One user insisted, "If it was really her, she would have used her real Reddit account from her last AMA."
"The picture seems to have been taken a few days ago," a different Reddit user said in regard to Dormer's proof of identification and authentication, adding, "We know Natalie's PR team is behind that keyboard, but have no indication that she is, especially considering she's using a new account, new social media profiles tying into the movie, and the responses being given are not exactly deep."
Questions were answered regardless and the AMA was deemed unverified until the moderators for Reddit got it touch with Dormer's team. The moderator that personally verified it was Dormer replying during the AMA posted a very long post explaining the entire situation, which you can read here.
Plus, Dormer sent out a post on Facebook after the AMA, thanking fans for joining her in it, though many comments on that post seem to be of the annoyed variety since Dormer's answers were short and vague unlike her AMA from last year.
Hi Everyone! I had such a blast doing a reddit AMA today! Thanks for all the great questions! Looking forward to hearing what you all think of The Forest!
