Jordyn Woods and Karl-Anthony Towns brought Game of Thrones back to life this weekend, and they did it in the most committed way possible. The newlyweds stepped out in New York City on Saturday dressed as a White Walker and the Night King, complete with a blonde wig, all-black Night King gear, a machete prop, and intricate ghoulish makeup. Then they took the whole look to dinner at what appeared to be Sartiano’s in SoHo, which is a level of dedication most of us reserve for costume contests only.
The timing is sweet: this is their first Halloween since their star-studded August wedding in Malibu. It’s also not a random costume choice. Towns is a longtime Game of Thrones fan and even joked with Kit Harington at a Knicks playoff game in April about bending the knee. So these weren’t costumes of convenience. These two actually care about the show.
The outing mixes celebrity, sports, and pop culture in one perfect Halloween story with a New York City backdrop. So what’s the verdict: are these the best celebrity costumes of 2026, or is someone else topping them? Tell us in the comments.
