The challenges of a casting director
An interesting article has been posted over at Variety regarding casting directors. With all of the casting discussion going on right now in regards to the Game of Thrones pilot, I thought it was worth pointing it out. Give it a read to get an idea of how the pros do it, then come back […]
Cliffhanger ending
There is an interesting discussion over at the Westeros forums regarding where to end the pilot episode. Obviously this discussion is all spoilers, so click through only if you’ve read the first 200 pages of the first book.

Is another Hollywood work stoppage on the horizon?
The Screen Actor’s Guild is preparing to go on strike, which could lead to another Hollywood work stoppage similar to last year’s WGA strike. Variety is reporting the stoppage could begin as early as January. The Screen Actors Guild will send out its strike authorization vote to members next month, making it possible for actors […]
Promise me, Ned
The role of Eddard Stark is going to be another crucial casting decision that the producers will have to make. Ned’s role in the pilot episode will be important and whomever they get to play Ned will need to pull it off well if this series is to get past the pilot stage. Due to […]

Money makes the world go ’round
The evil of producing a medieval fantasy series such as this one is that it is expensive. To make it look good is very expensive. So what kind of budget is Game of Thrones likely to get? If we look again at Rome as a guide, we see that the budget was massive, $100 million […]
Benioff adds more to his plate
As if producing the upcoming films Kashmir and Ender’s Game, working on half a dozen scripts and beginning production on the Game of Thrones pilot wasn’t enough, David Benioff has added another project to his already lengthy to-do list. The Hollywood Reporter reports: Paramount is getting behind the power of the press. The Melrose studio […]

Casting unknowns and young up-and-comers
Many of the names being bandied about for the different roles in this series are names most people are familiar with. I contend that if you have heard of an actor, the chance they are going to be in this series is slim. The cast is going to be mostly unknowns. The Movie Fanatic has […]

Waiting is the hardest part
No official timetable has been set for when the pilot will begin filming, nor when they expect the pilot to be fully completed and ready to show to HBO. Let’s try to take a guess, though, shall we? We know, based on what we’ve heard from Benioff and Weiss so far, that they are in […]

To spoil or not to spoil?
As you might have guessed, the writer of this blog has read (and re-read) George R. R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire series. However, I realize that a lot of you folks may not have read the series, or at least not read every book yet. So I will be refraining from spoilers […]

What’s in a name?
Prior to HBO’s greenlighting the pilot, I wondered that if the series did get produced what HBO would go with as the title of the series? A Song of Ice and Fire just seemed too long and unwieldy for a television series. Well with the recent news of the pilot going to production, it seems […]

Let’s talk Tyrion
Probably the most important casting decision that the producers have to make is who to cast as Tyrion. He is a complex character and would represent the role of a lifetime for the actor chosen to play him. Let’s take a look at the possible actors that may wind up playing Martin’s favorite character. Peter […]
