Season three to start filming July 9th

Bring on the guessing games!

I can’t Believe they are shooting in less than 3 weeks but outside of stannis daughter we have had no casting announcements

So can we get some more casting speculation articles?!

9th of July…but where? Morocco, Iceland, Ireland or Croatia?

Maybe they were simply pretty f*cking busy filming the first and second season, and wanted just a little more time this time around.

Any word on season 4 or SoS part 2?

Oh please say you got David Wenham and Cillian Murphy!

Everybody waiting to hear Cillian Murphy as playing Ramsay will be sorely disappointed. There is simply no way this will happen. At all.

For that matter, I don’t want him to. He’s too good-looking.

My top choices are: Burn Gorman if they’re going older and Andrew Simpson if they’re going young. They’re available, and look appropriate.

(Seriously, Burn Gorman looks like a golem or something.)

Hopeful casting:
Andrew Scott for Ramsay Snow
Sian Phillips or Francesca Annis for Queen of Thorns
Gillian Anderson for Selyse Baratheon
Henry Ian Cusick for Mance Rayder
Sean Harris or David Wenham for Beric Dondarrion
Stephen Waddington for Edmure Tully
Peter Mullan for Blackfish
Jared Harris for Vargo Hoat

Sean Harris is filming the Borgias season 3 at the same time GOT is filming as well so I doubt he is available . What about David Oakes for one of the roles ?

I just hope there is no more Lannister guards farting this season, I mean that really brought the quality of the show down.

Also I can’t wait to see Whitebeard.

Katja Herbers for Sylese Baratheon
Tygo Gernandt for Ramsey Snow
Jack Wouterse for Thoros of Myr
Jan Decleir for the Blackfish

Please let’s not turn this into a casting thread. There’s already one of those.

KG:
Aw c’mon, Ed. How else can everyone prove they watched a foreign movie once?

Guess you don’t mean me since for me the movies in which the actors I mentioned act in aren’t foreign!

ReinIsEenNerd:
So you’re Dutch and Belgian?

Jan Decleir acted in a lot of Dutch movies.
He would be epic as the Blackfish!

javimgol:
9th of July…but where? Morocco, Iceland, Ireland or Croatia?

9th of July at Titanic Studios, Belfast.

Sarah Bolger for Meera Reed!

David Hasselhoff = Mance Rayder! Jawohl.

The Kingslayer:

Also I can’t wait to see Whitebeard.

How do we know there will be Whitebeard? He was not introduced in the finale and no Strong Belwas confirmation. If S3 opens with a time jump of a few months and Dany is already in Astapor then how will they be worked into the story.

Somthing tells me they might be cut to save $$.

Varamyr Fourskins,

I have pictured Winstone as Tormund Giantsbane (or Mace Tyrell next year maybe)… as well as Wenham as Beric honestly…. I think Pearce is too big, but HBO did nab him for Mildred Pierce I guess….

Dogmayor,

Indeed!
Last season the scripts suffered compared to Season 1. I’m not sure it was the concetration on Blackwater or if it was simply the task of condensing a large book to 10 episodes while adding your own scenes to round out some characters screen time. Whatever the case let us pray to The Seven or the Old Gods for better scripts in Season 3!

Varamyr Fourskins,

I’m not hung up on the fleshy face and worm-like lips, but I agree he needs to be a creeper, not a handsome, but scary-looking dude.

I really don’t get this fan obsession with Cillian Murphy playing Ramsay. He’s just entirely the wrong choice, plus he’s too busy and expensive.

Iwan Rheon is a great choice, too. I kinda like Andrew Scott, but he’s still maybe a bit too handsome. Not that I’d complain if he was cast.

There ARE ugly actors out there. He doesn’t have to be Hollywood ugly.

Josh Parker,

The thing about “ugly” or “pretty” is that they are relative to every society or era…. plus so much of it is attitude and stature.

The thing about Cillian Murphy is that he has 2 of Ramsay’s most distinct features perfectly – large wormy lips and ice blue eyes (and I think his face is fleshy looking too honestly). The rest is attitude and Murphy can play creepy like no one’s business!

While there are definitely more actors out there that could do the job, to rule out Murphy because he is “too pretty” is just odd to me. Most of the actors fans have picked for Ramsay are “pretty”…. outside of Born Gorman that is! XD

Claudiu Gherganu,

Hey in all fairness the book nerds were there long before you became a fan, some as many as 2o years! This is our favourite book series they are adapting, we will not go away!

I don’t think D&D are going to view ugly as a requirement for Ramsay. Different looking, but not ugly. I mean, this is TV. Tyrion’s supposed to be hideous. And Brienne has a masculine haircut. That’s as far as they go.

That said, I’d imagine price tag is a bigger issue for Cillian Murphy. It could be somewhat of a juicy role — although he’s done a fair number of guys like this — but they really haven’t gotten many people with his resume so it’s pretty unlikely.

Alan,

I agree, I think that has been the number one reason he would not be cast since people started floating his name aaround. Same goes for a number of bigger named actors people float….

I think there could be a few roles in the series bigger name actors would take in the next few years that have enough face time and depth that the actors would want to play the role and HBO could rationalize paying a bit more…. That said, I’m not sure any will be cast in the end I guess.

I think we’re all setting ourselves up for disappointment by hoping for people with busy schedules or who would be too expensive. We’re all forgetting that the three biggest names on this show (aside from Dinklage) only signed on because they were only signing for one season.

Ramsay, possibly Edmure and the Blackfish, Mance Rayder, etc. will all be signing on for multiple seasons, at least two.

So for roles like these, I suggest we expect that at best we’ll be seeing people at the same level of renown as Liam Cunningham, Stephen Dillane, Natalie Dormer, Carice van Houten, or, far more likely, Ian Hanmore or Daniel Portman. Which is to say, no renown.

I don’t know if he’d do it, but Ciaran Hinds would make a great Doran Martell when that role comes around.

Eoin,

Dude spoilers much?

Lex,

James Purefoy would make a great MAnce Rayder.

Alan:

Would this be the 1st time he’s played a flayer though? I’m just TOO excited for Ramsay, I have a strange obsession for him, even though he is described as an ugly turd. Same with my obsession for the Hound. The more hideous the character, the more I love them! ha

Peter Mensah for Grey Worm! Although he was recently cast for True Blood. Maybe with the way HBO handles primetime, there would be minimal scheduling conflicts? He was in the Spartacus series, I think he would make a perfect Grey Worm.

Hell yes, casting is coming.

Cillian Murphy as Ramsay would be absolutely awesome, and I totally would love to see that. But.. there’s no way it will happen. Sure he’s way too good looking to fit the physical description of Ramsay, but I’ll take acting chops over physical resemblence any day. Besides, Cillian has the two defining traits of Ramsay: thick lips and pale eyes.

Honestly though, I wouldn’t be that surprised if Ramsay isn’t even cast. Think about it, he wasn’t in Storm of Swords at all. Though it would be lame to reveal what happened to Winterfell without an on-screen introduction of Ramsay. If Ramsay was cast though, what would he even do? Would they just show him in the Dreadfort flaying Theon? Is that really enough content to justify casting him? If it is such a small role, it does give hope for Cillian Murphy, as he wouldn’t have to be paid all THAT much for breif cameo

Aegon the Conqueror,

Ian MElhinney twitted he will soon return to a TV Series.
I Think Barristan will be back ^^

Holbac,

Really? Link? Awesome if true.

Aside from the casting, what scenes are you looking forward to?
Me: 1. RW
2. “the grotto”
3. much more Tyrion and Bronn
4. Geez, I just hope they don´t leave out too much :)

Josh Parker:
Holbac,

http://twitter.com/SerIanMc/status/205245447957254145

Holbac,

I sincerely hope you are a young beautiful lady, cause that news makes me want to kiss you!!!!

blackbird7309,

1) Sam the Slayer
2) Arya and the Hound
3) the Lightning Lord!
4) secret coversation of Sansa and the Tyrels.
5) Any potential Dorne scenes (rumours that they may be included this season)
6) Jon and Ygritte scenes.

Josh Parker,

Getting another LOTR star on GOT? THat would be awesome! Just imagine the dwarf jokes he and Peter could make off set.

I think that have the Stiller boys on one show would reunite them and give them a chance to prove themselves on television once more (Jerry already did with King of Queens). I would LOVE to see Ben Stiller match wits with Michelle Fairley. Channing Tatum’s muscles would do the acting for him. Blackfish is an action character right?!? Lets have em be a stripper too!!

Tyler Perry as Ramsay Bolton would be lovely as it would require him to play a sadistic, disgusting, vile character unlike anything he’s played before. Not to mention the number of African Americans who would turn in would be stunning.

Michael Cera can provide the solemn yet quite wisdom of Jojen Reed, he and Issac should have intense chemisty on set. While Kristen can bring a subtle performance with all her lip biting and glaring to Meera.

Kim Kardashian cuz why not? That butt of hers attracts more than a million viewers on Sunday. Lets convert those Kardashian fans into Game of Thrones fans!
BOOTY IS COMING!!

James Purefoy for Mance!

my scenes:

1 the ‘grotto’
2 RW, if it’s pushed forward.
3 a grey wolf and bastard meet, fleetingly, (though doubt if we’ll see it)
4 jaime’s…
5 anything Tyrion with Tywin
6 a certain group of companions
7 bran being told a story
8 the Old Bear

Josh Parker,

No, I agree. Hivju probably didn’t audition for Tormund, and if they’re going by the book then he would be too young (but who knows, maybe they’ll make him younger). But if they cast him I imagine it’s a wildling role (maybe some of the book characters combined).

House Farwynd,

I will kill you! And your house! Then I’ll have to get some singer to compose a Rains of Castamere esque song about house Farwynd.

I believe season 3 will be like season 1, where a lot of important stuff happens to our favorite characters. With 2 seasons, they can concentrate on what’s important and go slow. Because season 2 had not a lot going on (without Blackwater), with full of new characters. But now we will know the characters in season 3: Yara, Melissandre, Stannis, Margeary, Brienne.
So let’s give the guys a break, they did an awesome job!!!

Why do people refer to Ramsay Snow as Ramsay Bolton so soon? He doesn’t become legitimized until after The Red Wedding

Chump Force 1,

If they cut Whitebeard I’ll stop watching the show, Whitebeard is a vital part of Dany’s journey you cannot cut him !!!!!!!

Also I’d hate to see Sean Harris in GOT he makes my skin crawl.

mags giantsbabe,

What is “the grotto”. I dnt remember that from ASOS

I don’t know what has happened but my previous post is empty sorry!
David Oakes as Beric Dondarrion, please! He was awesome in a second season of The Borgias http://www.imdb.com/media/rm3033901568/nm2845631

Dark Star: I think Swedish actor Bill Skarsgard would make a great Ramsey Snow.

Somewhat awkward English, strong Swedish accent, I believe.

yay! 9 july is my birthday :D so excited for the next season, i just finished watching season 2 the ending was epicc!

Two Feathers:
TF is back in the Game…title and lands in the north restored….:)

awesome, congrats. Hope you can give us some secret little hints now and then.

Carne,

I quit watching The Borgias (not to be confused with Borgia which I quite liked) after 4 or 5 episodes into Season 1 because I thought it was just a poorly done series overall. Harris was the exception though and quite good in the role.. Michaletto?

Like you said though he is good in most everything he does. I liked him in everything I have seen him in (Red Riding Trilogy, Five Daughters, Meadowlands) even if I’ve only seen him in a handful of projects.

Knurk,

Ok I have no idea what is happening? What are you guys talking about, does Two Feathers work on the series?

Rygar,

Oh my god Ray Winstone would make a horrible Victarion.

The Kingslayer,

He had a tiny and badly written role, so I don’t blame him. That was the case with most of the cast. A mediocre script. Fassbender was very good though.

even though i have my own dream cast, i wouldn’t mind if they go for total unknowns. they have been very good at casting unknowns like Emilia Clarke and the Stark kids. it gives newcomers a platform.

The Kingslayer,

I disagree. He does not fit my mental image of Victarion but he has the badassary down and is talented enough of an actor to give the character more depth.

darquemode,

Managed to get through the first season, but it was more me forcing myself through each episode, hoping it would get better. Didn’t drag me in as GoT have.

John-Michael Lelievre,

But really, how awesome would it be to have Sir Anthony in a scene or three lol

Rygar,

I’ve nevert pictured Victarion as lanky he’s always been well built to me with broad shoulders.

LoF,

Isn’t an over the top weirdo exactly what is needed for the bastard of Bolton?
Anyway if fans are complaining Murphy is too “pretty” for the role, what do you think they are gonna say about TOm Hardy!

I’m sure there are a lot of bigger named Hollywood actors/actresses who would love to play some of these characters, but I agree, most of them have projects going and things up in the air that would not permit them for this long of an obligation. That is why I think we will see more unknowns coming. Which is great because you don’t have preconceived perceptions about them.
Game of Thrones doesn’t need big names to attract viewers, they can go strickly for talent :)

darquemode:
Interesting little factoid I just discovered (albeit possibly completely irrelevant)…
Nina Gold recently cast Ian McShane in a movie ‘Cuban Fury’. It’s in early pre-production right now so it should interfere with Thrones filming if… if…. if…

I’d just love to have Ian McShane in any number of roles on Thrones that this new Nina Gold connection paired with his previous HBO connection is just going to stoke the flames even more!

Now back to your regularly shceduled programming….

I like this.

Are the Ian McElhinney rumblings accurate?

He just wrapped the BBC miniseries The Fall starring Gillian Anderson, in Belfast, which also stars Michael McElhatton (Roose Bolton).

Wait…just saw the Elio twitter feed. Arstan Whitebeard is coming….

Bgap,

Proudest aSoIaF fan moment…getting my sci-fi and fantasy hating father to start watching the series by telling him its a period piece and getting him hooked!
Second proudest moment, getting my teenage sister excited about the GOT Rom-Com trailer only to dash her hopes at the end!

For those who already read the 3rd book, where do you think they are going to end season 3 and start season 4? Do you think the Red Wedding? The unsullied? I really don’t remember very well what happens in the middle of the book

KG,

Haha, he could have been Craster for sure. Or even Roose. The guy IS one of my favourite actors. Ahh hell, let’s get him for Tormund.

Joshua Taylor,

I never noticed it before this last year, but if you are cast in a project by Nina Gold there is a very good chance you will be in another project cast by Nina Gold sometime soon! The actors she casts are so interconnected within her projects it is both amusing and disturbing on some level! XD

The game might be “6 degrees of Kevin Bacon”, but I bet it is more like 2 or 3 degrees of Nina Gold! XD

Ian McElhinney ‏@SerIanMc
Heading to London for a meeting re a TV series and going to see a play starring a pal of mine. Catch you all soon.

darquemode,

As for your Nina Gold comment, I just got goosebumps because Nina Gold also cast for The Fall as well which in addition to having Ser Barristan and Roose Bolton in the cast the mini-series about a serial killer in Belfast stars Gillian Anderson, who I wanted for Catelyn Stark since day 1 (I love Fairley though!), this gives a slim chance that GA could be get involved with the show. I think she could do well with a long standing role as Selyse Baratheon. Granted, GA is much more attractive than book Selyse, but I think (given her bizarre Ms. Havisham in Great Expectations) she could make it work, and if she has good chemistry with Stephen Dillane they could be a fun, bickering couple. I enjoy Selyse Florent Nee Baratheon very much as a character, she’s just this jaded, cold, colossal nag. Another role that GA could sink her teeth into is Lady Dustin who given her appearance in ADWD and the constant mentioning of House Dustin in season 2 confirms for me that that storyline will be important in the Northern arc of ASOIAF. I would kill for a scene of Anderson talking to Reek about Brandon Stark’s douchebaggery and Ned Stark’s bones.

Oh fuck…..I just had brainstorm: Could Lady Barbrey Dustin be Jon Snow’s mother? And Brandon Stark his father? That could explain her hatred of Ned Stark, not to mention the Dustin name drops in season 2…do D & D know something we don’t?

Joshua Taylor,

Nina Gold also casted Prometheus: bring on Charlize, Fassbender, Harris, Rapace, Pearce and for the love of god IDRIS ELBA! (just one of them will do too)

Pretty funny to see Lysa and Marillion in that movie.

Joshua Taylor,

Those are 3 that come to mind for me too, but I will add a few more….
James Fox for Qyburn, Anthony Flanagan (Tom O’Sevens or maybe Vargo Hoat even) and I think either Jim Carter or John Henshaw could be good Wyman Manderly if he gets cast…

Julian Walker,

LMAO :D your preference list !

My brain is forgetting ADWD alltogether now, I have no freakin’ clue who Hizdahr and Green Grace are.

darquemode,

Is James Shaw large enough for Manderly’s role ? I guess there’s always the fat suit.

Knurk,

Think Mereen, Danerys’ husband and advisor respectively.

darquemode,

Always remind me of James Joyce

darquemode,

That’s a possibility, which just adds to the creepy wonderment that is Petyr Baelish.

Regarding my Lady Dustin theory…

Can you not see Ned claiming his dead brother’s bastard as his own to preserve the honour of the house and his brother and father’s memory? If people could imagine he would do it for Lyanna then why not Brandon as well? But if that is the case, what did Lyanna mean when she said “promise me”? Is this a reference to Young Griff/Aegon? And what if Cat knows about Brandon and Lady Dustin? She was to marry Brandon first, what if she knew as Ned did, that Jon is Brandon’s bastard through Lady Dustin? That would explain a lot of her hatred….because I think Ned would have told her if Jon was Lyanna’s boy. And she wouldn’t hate him as much I think.

Another motive for Lady Dustin’s hatred…there was a switch, her boy with Brandon died instead of baby Aegon (who belonged to Lyanna and Rhaegar not sickly Elia Martell) and Lyanna’s boy Jon was brought back to Winterfell. But why would they switch them? What are the circumstances there?

darquemode,

Ian McNiece would be fantastic as Manderly! Picture his fat, vulgar Nazi in Conspiracy with Kenneth Branagh and he could pull it off. I remember his brilliant Vladimir Harkonnen in the Dune mini-series.

Sorry darquemode, I misread J. Henshaw’s name from the list above. I have no
idea who he is but I referenced the need for an actor with girth. ser Manderly
always made me think of Jabba the Hut.

Good tidings…at least something positive will happen this summer…

WildSeed,

Ok I wondered if that was who you meant! XD
I think he could be large enough to pass, but not as big as the books obviously…. Jim Carter has the booming voice and the height but he is more thick than fat like Manderly should be.

Here is John Hensaw in South Riding a couple years ago.
http://static.whatsontv.co.uk/images/gallery/SOUTH-RIDING-JOHN-HENSHAW.jpg

darquemode,

dude just saw your site (nice!) you have to include Sian Phillips for Queen of Thorns and Imogen Poots for Val.

Also Jason Isaacs is available! Awake (sadly,watching it now and it is fantastic) was cancelled.

This is why Sian Phillips should be Queen of Thorns: http://youtu.be/_yNNviQNna4

Joshua Taylor,

Well Thank you…

I left Isaacs off the list since he is currently filming a movie , but he could be done in time for Thrones… Maybe? I would love him in Thrones!

I saw Imogen Poots in Bouquet of Barbed Wire. I liked her… Hmmm…
According to IMDB she has a rather busy schedule of upcoming projects, but if Val or Dalla come next year…..

I think I left Sian Phillips off because of how tall she is, but that is no legitimate reason of course! She could have shrunk a bit over the years for that matter. XD

She would be very good in the role for sure. Like i put on the site…. there are just so many great older British actress that could do the Queen of Thorns justice in my opinion…. I may take off Jean Marsh though seeing as I think her career will be curtailed due ot her stroke last year….

WildSeed,

How so? My Lady Dustin theory or my Ian McNiece casting for Manderley?

As much as I would love Iwan Rheon as Ramsay Snow, I think that’s one we will have to let go of- looking on Iwan Rheon’s IMDb page, he’s not exactly struggling for work, he’s got four movies coming out and he’s apparently working on an album (he’s a singer?!). He seems to be way too busy.

Claudiu Gherganu,

I think most people don’t mind that D&D change things in the story, except they have to be improvements, whereas most of the changes in the TV series are not.

mags giantsbabe:
turn cloak

it’s got to do with Jon, in a cave, in the first part of ASOS.

‘…there’s naught to bite in the dark but flesh…’

Ah, the Lord’s Kiss.

Ramsay is described as solidly built, not massively muscular. In fact, it’s stated he’ll probably run to fat in later life so the most I’d give him bodywise is “stocky.”

El Beto: For those who already read the 3rd book, where do you think they are going to end season 3 and start season 4? I really don’t remember very well what happens in the middle of the book

I thought the book was divided in two parts anyways. I bought them on amazon, the first part is called “Steel and Snow”, the second “Blood and Gold”. If D&D keep to the books, we´re in for a huge cliffhanger.
The first part ends with Jon´s escape from the wildlings after almost running into Bran. The RW is at the beginning of the second book.

mags giantsbabe

If they don´t give us the cave-scene, I´m gonna be really mad :) At least, Kit admitted, that his contract has a nudity clause :D

Ryan,

mine is the 8th of July but I think I’ll celebrate it one day late this year :)

I wonder if GRRM is still going to do the casting clues because 1) he doesn’t have much time and 2) the clues are usually deciphered in a fraction of the time he needs to come up with them… Hope he persists though because it’s definitely the best between-season entertainment there is!

Lol that you consider your last sentence a spoiler.

The Grotto-Scene is an important scene in the book, it’s about real freedom, hope they don’t ruin it. Also hope that Rose Leslie doesn’t have a (see referred spoiler).

Correction, I meant I hope that she has a very liberal one, the same as Natalia Tena has for example.

lex

uhuh (: but not just that, the whole sequence

blackbird

i’ll also be dissappointed if they don’t show that. It’s an important part of the character arc. Sorry, what did Kit say? I can’t seem to untag spoiler tags on my phone.

mags giantsbabe: i’ll also be dissappointed if they don’t show that. It’s an important part of the character arc. Sorry, what did Kit say? I can’t seem to untag spoiler tags on my phone.

The interviewer asked, if his contract has a “Nudity-Clause” . Obviously it does and I´m very happy about it :) We´ve already seen naked dwarves and fat, naked kings. I´d like to see something yummy!

snapbackd: In my opinion it just comes down to cost; GoT and particularly Nina Gold have created a cast of mainly unknown (and cheap!) actors (Maisie, Kit, Alfie, Sophie just to name a few) and these guys have constantly been impressing everyone since the show started. I have faith that no matter who is cast as Ramsay he will be as flawless as the rest of the cast

Yeah I agree with that. For the most part bandying around these Hollywood names is (fun but) pointless. They will probably go for someone who looks sort of familiar and we might have seen them in a UK TV series once but is not a big name.

Having just said that (and completely contradicting myself), if they did want to bring in a bit of star power, Ramsay is probably the best new character to do that for.

And to throw in my fun but pointless thought, a young Steve Buscemi would have been perfect for Ramsay in my opinion (although I cannot imagine him doing an English / European accent… has he ever for a role?).

Joshua Taylor,

re: your Lady Dustin theory

As much as I’d love to see the R+L=J theory debunked, I don’t think the timeline fits in this case, she was already married at the time of Robert’s rebellion and, from what I’ve gathered, nothing points to her affair with Brandon being recent enough to make them believable candidates for Jon’s parentage. Also, why would Ned lie in this case? It doesn’t add up IMO. But I don’t have the books at hand, so I could be mistaken.

Blackbird

:))))))

oh, that! We’ll, since he has (i bet all of the actors have to), we have something to look forward to (those of us who care). I wonder if we’ll be seeing Little Jon then… Lol

Josh Parker: Vanderhook, A poster here, forgive me for forgetting who, suggested that Ramsay might show up this year as a fellow captive who gains Theon’s trust and even helps him escape. He could then spend the entire season gaining Theon’s trust, and being promised a highly-placed position once Theon regains power, etc., only to then have him reveal himself near the end of the season.It’s a good way to keep Theon in focus even though he sits Storm out, and think about how this show doesn’t require “major” characters to appear in every episode. A plot like that would take up five or six episodes. That’ll do just fine. And then maybe 4 episodes in Season 4 showing him as a captive and being tortured.

Thats an idea that sounds cool at first, until you realize theres a huge plot hole: Why would Ramsay even pretend to be a captive? Just to fuck with Theon? That’s a very elaborate plot just to fuck with someone. In the books, Ramsay was a captive because the Northmen were trying to exact justice upon Ramsay, so he switched spots with Reek. He then tricked Theon into letting him go get reinforcements. In the show, the entire Ramsay subplot was cut and Roose asks Robb to let his bastard take care of Theon, which lets us know that Ramsay is not in bad standing in the North, therefore has no reason to pretend he is a captive.

Tar Kidho,

Yeah I love Tony Head and Giles was one of my favorite characters on Buffy (he brought Gravitas to the goings on) so I respectfully disagree. To each their own though :-)

Two Feathers:
TF is back in the Game…title and lands in the north restored….:)

Stark soldier again? so happy for you!

Aegon the Conqueror,

yes, he was a Stark soldier ( season 1: first Arya´s scene?) but I think in season 2 he betrayed them ;)

darquemode,

Steven Fry as Manderley….

Joshua Taylor,

I like Fry and tried to think of a role for him when I started my cast post… maybe Manderly! XD

The man is BUSY though. He has some Hobbit stuff going on and like 3 other films in pre-production and one he is filming now! One never knows how long those shoots are or when some in “pre-production” will actually if ever go to actual production and begin filming.

I thought Mads Mikkelsen was too busy to get a role on Thrones (or any more projects)with a similar ammount of projects in queue and he took on the lead in the upcoming series Hannibal! XD

darquemode:
Joshua Taylor,

I am split on Tony Head actually and basically addedd him to my list after reading it onsome other site since I thought it was something fun and different.

I guess I consider him more comedic, but I considered Marc Addy that way before he played Robert Baratheon too.

I think a lot of light drama actors can nail the heavy drama when given the chance. Some of the best heavy drama actors around startted as comdians so I am usually willing to give someone the chance before I rule them out just because they don’t fit my ideal mold.

If someone told me that the guy from Malcolm in the Middle was going to play the lead in Breaking Bad I would have poopoo-ed it in all likelihood, but I now am aware that Bryan Cranston is THE MAN!

The one addition to my list I could not make, but read somewhere was someone saying Hugh Laurie for Thoros of Myr. In all honestly that may be amazing in the end(since I think Laurie has some real acting chops), but I cannot get past House, Blackadder III,and A Bit of Fry and Laurie! XD

That’s a really good point on Cranston. I’m not a fan of generally getting actors who are already identified with a role in a lot of people’s minds — especially not one with either a lot of crossover or comedic. To that end, things like Nathan Fillion or Anthony Head don’t appeal — I see Mal or Giles, etc., and that’s not really what I want out of GoT. I don’t want Tom Cruise playing Tom Cruise to the point that I forget his name in the movie is Ethan Hunt.

So I’ve been mentally opposed to these. But I suppose if the character is different enough and the actor is good enough and it might help to have a physical change, then people can pull it off and make you forget the old character.

Jake,

actually just one, the awesome little Cranogman Howland Reed.

andrea,

Is he the guy with the beard who lowered his head when lady Stark walked past and then wrote a post for WIC.net? If he is that’s awesome, theres a reason I still remember that post.

SDCC cannot get here fast enough, I’m so tired of looking up names of actors I’ve never heard of before wondering if they are going to be in GOT. Please please give me something solid before I get my heart set on Cillian Murphy and David Wenham and have it broken like when I heard Jams Purefoy was too busy to play Mance.

darquemode,

Mads Mikkelsen would’ve been awesome. Perhaps there is hope for the future, can totally see him play Euron Greyjoy, his accent even sounds similar to the Iron Islanders.

I just really want to send Nina Gold a big thank you. I don’t know how she does it, but she’s absolutely incredible. Without her I never would’ve seen the beauty of Sophie Turner (and before anybody freaks out I’m only a couple of years older than her). You just know she’s so good that whoever gets picked will be the best actor for the character.

Linda Hunt might make a good Queen of Thorns

darquemode,

We may not get Mads in the near future but how about Lars Mikkelsen? I could settle for that, actually I think I might even prefer it, I’ve seen him in several productions and the guy certainly is talented.

Man, we are in dire need of some casting news, aren’t we? Just so that we can be at each other’s throats afterwards. ;)

andrea: I don´t remember but he´s a true gentleman so I would not be surprised. Please someone with better memory???
TF where are you?Aegon is your fan!

Alas guys, although I am a true gent, the person you are thinking of is my comrade in arms Qthulhu.
Just to let you know I have badly hurt my neck in a traffic accident, and have had to step down from my role as a northern bannerlord this season. I am totally gutted as you can imagine. But hopefully I will be fit enough by late september/ early october to get back on set. Although I will need a lot of luck to get another chance this season.

Two Feathers,

ahw that sucks. Hope you get well soon.

Macha,

Knurk,

andrea,

Thanks guys.

Two Feathers,

Good luck and good healing!

darquemode,

Hollywood is filled with stars who accepted—or pursued—”against type” roles for much less money than their going rate, for career purposes. Unfortunately, virtually no role in GOT is large enough to tempt a above-the-title (A-list) or most B-list stars. Sometimes a show lucks out with stunt casting when an actor is also a big fan or lands a cameo when someone is filming nearby and owes a favor to the writer, director, etc. Again, not likely with some of the locations GOT is booked into.

Most likely big catch would be some UK actor or related-entertainment star (music, etc.) to build buzz, or someone angling for a role on an upcoming HBO show. We’ve seen two seasons of relative unknowns doing great work; I suspect we’ll see more of the same.

DH87,

Oh I agree completely… I was speaking in general terms and not meaning that some big name actor could be cast in Thrones if he played against type.

I think that the quality second tier actor like James Purefoy, Rufus Sewell, Matthew Macfadyen (and actors like that) may even be a step above most that will be cast in Thrones. I hope that they can get an actor of that level for Mance since he should have a decent role for afew seasons… Like you said though, there really are not many real meaty roles to be found outside of the existing cast.

darquemode,

Aegon the Conqueror,

The Rabbit,

Thanks for your good wishes. I really appreciate it….:)

darquemode,

Come to think of it am I crazy to think Rufus Sewell will make a bloody good Mance?

Aegon the Conqueror,

I do like the idea of Henry Ian Cusick, Karl Urban, or Peter Wingfield as Mance (or any number of others people have floated), but my hope against hope has been Rufus Sewell for Mance after Purefoy and Mikkelsen were unavailable.

Aegon the Conqueror: Rufus Sewell

I just watched the last episode of Zen and it was great. He´s a subtle actor who does wonders with just small gestures and has a special talent for comedy as well.

andrea,

I absolutely loved him as bad guy in Knight’s Tale and enjoyed his innocence in the Tourist. He would be a worthy addition to GOT.

andrea,

I wish Zen had gotten a second season!

It was nothing overly original or overly ambitious, but it was a fun show that entertained me with some pretty good actors. Plus being set and filmed in Italy made for a nice change of scenery compared to what I’m used to seeing!!

Somone, anyone who knows more about this than I do, what are the chances of Kevin Mckid finding his way unto the show? Loved him in ROme and went ballistic when I heard he was supplying the voice for Soap in Modern Warfare 2.

Aegon the Conqueror,

I’m on board with the idea of bringing Rufus Sewell in GoT as well, though he could be a tad expensive for any of the remaining roles. Contrary to what you and darquemode suggested I don’t really see him as Mance, but ultimately if he lands this part or any other I’d be just as happy. There is a slight drawback for me personally, because he has this easily recognizable face, the one that makes you instantly point and say ‘hey wait I minute, I’ve seen you in this or that’, and he’s done many period pieces to chose from. However, as I said, I love the guy so I’m willing to let that pass.
And Sophie Turner is a beauty indeed, both me and my boyfriend agree on this. I remember watching her last scene with Rory McCann (the ‘you wouldn’t hurt me’ part) and having to rewind it simple because I couldn’t pay attention to what she was saying. Because she looked friggin’ gorgeous. :)

andrea,

Haha ok, If I may ask what country are you from?

andrea,

Was there once in 2008 on a high school rugby tour. Love the guts displayed by your national team and Pichot will remain one of the great number 9s in history.

Sorry for the trolling!

WildSeed,

Perhaps later on he could play Jon Connington.

WildSeed:
Macha,

he’d need a long curly black wig like that guy everyone knows depicted as a
Spainierdon a bottle of Jamaican Rum

Wait..kinda like this? Ok ok, I kidd, I kidd.
Already seen most of his work, Pillars of The Earth included. Ironborn? Could work, but I’ve already got my eyes set on Sebastian Koch for one of those roles so I’m sticking with that.
Haven’t seen Lincoln the Vampire Hunter, but that’s just because I’ve been busy watching Abraham Lincoln vs. Zombies. ;)

Macha,

Ha! XD
Bad wigs can go wrong pretty easily and even good ones can be sketchy…
Although he looks pretty good with a decent wig like in The Last King.

darquemode,

There’s our Pirate / Lord of the wigs

darquemode,

Ah man forgot he was in Greys#notafan

WildSeed,

I’m not a fan of much on Network TV either… Mostly the same as you, cable and premium cable (PBS too although I catch most of the shows online after they air in the UK).

I don’t watch Grey’s but I think he is one of the bigger roles on the series now from what I have overheard… depsite my best efforts to not hear! XD

darquemode,

I know someone out there is making faces as I say this but network TV is too
Soap Opera-ish ( and No, GOT is not in that classification ). I did watch ” Lost”
for 2 seasons then quit cold turkey until the final season, I hate to commit.
Especially when the producers compete for mid season rating sweeps and such.
A good show with awesome characters can go from intelligent to stupid with
the next episode just because of the timing. And Cliff hangers UGH“““`!
I’ve found lots of reasons to watch reruns of Dr Who or Torchwood simply because
of insipid mid season sweeps. Where is the doctor anyway, I could use a time lord
about now to find out whom will be cast as Tormund Giantsbane!!

Knurk,

ok Wic, they make me talk! Euro 2012 lol: what happened with you there?
Hockeyladies are fine, don´t you worry about those girls (don´t be so afraid). The great “Lucha” Aymar is our standard bearer (?) for the olympics.

Knurk: we’ll be talking Olympics in our own thread here quite soon.

Really??? that´s great news. A big bird eh?

can’t wait to hear who has been cast, and who will attend comic con this year…
but for what it’s worth, here are my 2 cents on the ideal casting list for some characters:
-QoT: maggie smith or vanessa redgrave
- jared harris: jon connington
-gillian anderson for oberyn’s paramour or stannis’s wife
- denis lawson for doran martell
- tom hiddleston for a cameo of rhaegar… or maybe even daario
- kenneth branagh for mance
- for mance: daniel day-lewis, rufus sewell or james purefoy

Knurk: Olympics in our own thread here quite soon.

Oh, who’s up for Dressage chat? (Stop than snickering, you guys.)

Aegon the Conqueror:
blackbird7309,

1) Sam the Slayer
2) Arya and the Hound
3) the Lightning Lord!
4) secret coversation of Sansa and the Tyrels.
5) Any potential Dorne scenes (rumours that they may be included this season)
6) Jon and Ygritte scenes.

It’s highly unlikely we get Dorne so soon… I really hope that the Red Viper arrives in King’s Landing on the 8th episode…

caro h,

I have thought of Hiddleston for a few roles including Beric and Edmure, but most Vargo Hoat I guess. He has a lot on his plate right now though. I think he just completed the filming for Henry IV/ V series of movies for TV and may have some post production…. I know he has Thor 2 in the future and 2 or 3 other projects in pre-production as I recall when I looked a few weeks ago. I like him though!

I had not considered Branagh for anything , but I do love him as an actor( or director or writer etc). I wonder if he is too old to be Edmure or too young to be The Blackfish? Hmm…..

Maria Batsiou,

Well if that’s true then the next time we see little princess Myrcylla she won’t be so little anymore. Hope they keep the original actress, loved the few scenes she had.

Mrs. H’ghar,

Yes they do absolutely scream Tully in that photo! XD

I wonder if Sebastian Armesto could be Daario if he went back to his natural dark hair?
No one seems to be just right for Daario in my mind as of now… Although it may be becuase I am not overly fond of the role……

WildSeed,

The reason I dislike most Network TV is that most of the series use the same recycled plots and then tweak them for their specific characters, but it all feels the same to me. Especially ABC where everything gets amped up soapy storylines and love triangles.

Hmmm. Thinking of cable series and available actors…. I wonder if Ritchie Coster from Luck might fit in with Thrones! He really impressed me as Renzo and he does accents very well too as seen in Let Me In and The Dark Knight. For that matter as Renzo in Luck too since Coster is British nad was doing an American accent I guess! XD

Maybe the Goat? He has the pained face look to him and the actor doing Hoat needs a talented voice actor ot pull off the lisp and keep it real. If they even decide to keep the lisp of course…

andrea:

Argentina

oh, I knew you should have a flaw. hahahahaha
just kidding xP

but, if there really comes to be an Olympics thread here, the talk about basketball and soccer will be fun o watch (and participate a litte)

darquemode: darquemode

Exactly what this woman was thinking darquemode, Armesto for Daario or a Tully associate bannerman? They call it blue hair in the book, but “Blue” ofttimes means “blueish Grey” in nature, such as in other animals called Blue. One could easily see Armesto in blue/grey hair/beard and he is awfully handsome, and the right age. And the other guy for Edmure Tully…though they could both be Tullys, they’re too young for the Blackfish so that means one could be Edmure and the other (Armesto)…Daario or young Aegon?

Thiago Waldhelm,

hey! I have many flaws.

Thiago Waldhelm: the talk about basketball and soccer will be fun

and about hockey (for ladies), and gymnastics and swimming and …

tysnow: the distinguished and talented thespian Chiwetel Ejiofor for the role.

he´s incredible!

The Queen’s Hand: That would be fantastic, although I believe all the unsullied are pretty young.

But wasn’t Grey Worm much younger, a slightly older brother to Missandei? So no older than 20?

And that’s Sam Reid for Edmure Tully, forgot his name in one of my last posts (oops). A woman is embarrassed.

The Queen’s Hand: His hair isn’t blue naturally, he is from Tyrosh and they like to dye their hair strange colors.

Oh I GET that they dye their hair, but GoT has gone rather conservative with the colored hair so far, so this woman was thinking they might not go with a “true blue” since that might look too farcical for this rather dark-themed show. We shall see.

Mrs. H’ghar,

I believe that her brother was one of the Unsullied being trained. He definitely wasn’t Grey Worm though.

darquemode,

Hiddlestone would be an awesome Rhaegar Targaryen, he and Harry Lloyd could easily be brothers.

Whoever suggested Gillian Anderson (who I love but have seen her in many roles and know that she can be more than just “Scully”) for Ellaria Sand is thinking out side of the box. Which is good! Ellaria could be a “white Dornish” easily, add some chemistry with the Red Viper actor and you will have some witty, trashy comments said at the Tyrells and Lannister’s expense. That said, after seeing Anderson’s Lady Dedlock she could be a great Selyse Florent, she has that dour, wry I hate everything but “love my husband and Rhllor aura about her.” Plus to see the classic GA arched eyebrow towards Stephen Dillane, Melisandre, Davos etc encapsulating her raging boredom would be perfect. Yes, she won’t match the description in the book exactly, but who cares at this point?

That said, Hadynn Gwynn’s Calpurnia on Rome fits Selyse perfectly.

Branagh’s a ‘Sir’ now, so it’s hard to say if he would join GoT. I would like to see him cast out of character though.

And I am totally down for Guy Henry as Vargo, remembering him in Harry Potter and the fact that he was Cassius who to me was given very little screen time than he deserved in season 2, but he had great camaraderie with Brutus’ Tobias Menzies and made the best out of every scene. Sigh, Rome totally deserved a third season. If season 2 had been stretched to fit so that it ended with Phillipi leaving Antony vs Octavian in season 3….I can’t imagine the awesomeness. Plus we would have Max Perkis for the second season as well.

Off topic, but I really, really want HBO or someone to adopt Colleen McCullough’s Masters of Rome series, particularly the first three books. The Marius/Sulla rivalry deserves to be captured on screen. McCullough’s Sulla is one of greatest characters in literature in my opinion. If you haven’t read them…do, it’s basically if GRRM wrote a series on the 8o year fall of the Roman Republic.

Bonnie Blue,

I’m more of an obsessed fan than an expert…. but thanks! XD
Winter, Hear Me Roar, Rabbit…. and the rest would have a better idea since they have a better grasp on the shooting schedule than me.

Last year they started a couple weeks later and we had got a lot of news a couple weeks into shooting. If that pattern follows then maybe mid-July there should be a lot of news starting to come out.

I’m sure some roles are cast now. …
I would wager if they are starting in Ireland that maybe the Brotherhood Without Banners are cast already or are close to being finalized, The Tullys, The Bloody Mummers, the Reeds maybe?

I don’t know their shooting schedule honestly so it is hard to guess exactly, but I would assume they would need to have those roles shot in Ireland cast earlier than say the new roles to be shot in King’s Landing (Dubrovnik), Essos (Morrocco… maybe?) and most of the new North beyond the Wall scenes (Iceland)… although I’m sure they will shoot some of the Jon arc in Ireland at some point.

Alan: I think that there’s a better chance they go even further in toning it down.If the dye is of significance, it may be simply dyed a more natural color.If it isn’t significant that he is dying and simply Tyroshi flamboyance, I bet they forget that altogether.

If memory serves, a woman remembers reading that the hair dying issue was largely a continuity problem if dying a person’s natural hair and not using a wig. Keeping track of how much highlighting, how much of natural roots should show, how long a character’s hair is, etc. might be difficult from scene to scene if they are not shot all at once consecutively. Hence the use of the wigs and more natural hair color than may be described in the books, am I right? Makes sense. I recall that Tyrion’s hair was lighter at the beginning of the first season, but seems to have gotten darker over the year, now looking brown. So I guess PD hates wigs and doesn’t appreciate the hair chair? Not that a woman cares much, just musing.

KG: Fencing is my game.
—)————-o

Love the fencing, diving, gymnastics, and swimming the most. Fencing is so fast now, a woman can barely tell what happened till the slo-mo replay shows! Would be cool to see the “Westeros Olympics” right? Hmmmm, probably would look like the Highland Games….WiC, how about a thread where we imagine Westeros/Essos Olympic events???? Hmmmmmmm…..jousting of course, archery, individual sword contests (like in Season 2 opening), and for the women how about hoop tossing (onto a distant peg)? Oh a woman is highjacking the thread again, sorry!

Bonnie Blue:
Mrs. H’ghar,

I, for one, hope that they make Daario as he was on the page.He is not subtle in any way, looks or character!So I hope they go for the blue blue hair, etc!I really liked his character, and I know I am in the minority after reading many comments.But I hope they bring his written character to life on screen, just as I imagined him in the pages :)

What do you think of this guy as Daario? Raz Degan, saw him recommended on another site, thought he is worth consideration. Flip through his imdb pics.

http://www.imdb.com/media/rm2236068864/nm0214641

A woman also found Daario an intriguing character, bad-boy warrior, imagine he’d ride a Harley in 2012. Black leather. Yeah.

Mrs. H’ghar,

I really like him for Daario and in fact I have him as one of my suggestions on my casting page! XD

Suprised anyone else thought of him he has not done too many roles honestly, but I do really think he would fit the role well!

Mrs. H’ghar,

Vargo Hoat is definitely in…there’s been an audition video leaked already. As well as Edmure Tully.

Mrs. H’ghar,

Sorry to get off subject, I am going to bed in a few – I know you are a Tom Wlaschiha fan, so a happy belated birthday to him (June 20th) :)

Bonnie Blue:
Mrs. H’ghar,

Sorry to get off subject, I am going to bed in a few – I know you are a Tom Wlaschiha fan, so a happy belated birthday to him (June 20th) :)

Goodnight fellow Jaqen fan! Thanks for mentioning his Birthday!

darquemode:
Mrs. H’ghar,

In fairness, I found Regan by surfing the net looking for random foreign actors too! XD

Thanks for the comment about my post….
Finding Jojen possibilities was hard! Had it been 3 years ago so many would be just right, but that crop of young actors all have hit puberty and look too old now! XD

A woman thinks it will be really interesting to see who they pick… the possibilities are practically endless! Wish they would throw us a bone already!

darquemode:
Mrs. H’ghar,

I never managed to see any of the Vargo Hoat audition videos, but from what I recall the audition (or two) did not have the lisp in it I don’t think.

The lisp is such a strong part of the book Vargo, but I can see it being too over-the-top to see it and hear it so often.I think it would need to be done just right and not overdone. that was why I loved the idea of Vincent Cassel as the Goat! Add in the heavily laced with French English accent and just a tiny bit of a lisp and I can imagine it would be believable and work perfectly!

Lik most of the roles they can go so many different directions and still capture the spirit of the character in the books to a large degree.

I’m very intrigued and excited for this season’s new crop of actors!!!

A woman likes your ideas. However, if I had to cast Vargo Hoat and wanted to have at least a slight lisp, I would look at somebody with the Castillian Spanish accent, which for some contains a sibilant sound that sounds somewhat like a slight lisp. It would sound more natural IMO. Of course, they could skip the lisp altogether, like they skipped the crying Xaro. Can’t wait to see how they go…

https://twitter.com/caricevhouten/status/217919632219176960

Looks like the actors gather for the shoot and the preparations are in full swing.
And now we want the casting news.

Mrs. H’ghar,

I managed to see Ned Dennehy’s audition for Vargo while the video was still up and I really liked it, however he did two takes and none of them had a lisp, so I presume it wasn’t specified in the casting call. But like I said, I really liked what I saw.

Alex Dubrovsky,
Cheers for that, good to hear!

Oh and guys, regarding that little chat we had about Rufus Sewell yesterday, looks like he’s booked for another production. Not a series, though, so not all hope is lost.

Speculation and speculation and birthday wishes and guessing and sport’s talk and fencing and dresage….we really do need some casting news. D@D if you are reading this we really could use your help right now!

Aegon the Conqueror,

Ha! Thanks.

Christopher Judge and Taylor Wily were both more about me not being able to find an real adequate actors for the role than me thinking they were perfect. I saw both suggested online elsewhere and included them since I wanted to include Belwas.

I later saw Sala Baker and thought he would be great! I wonder if he is working on The Hobbit like he worked on LotR series….. Oh well, I am not convinced they will cast Strong Belwas even at this point so I’m not sure it is worth the concern over casting…..

andrea:

hey! I have many flaws.

and about hockey (for ladies), and gymnastics and swimming and …

I can’t judge the other ones, but I meant that, for me, as a brazilian, that’s your biggest flaw hahaha. of course I’m kidding, you seem pretty nice.

and I mentioned soccer because the rivalry between our national teams is legendary; and basketball because the team Argentina is taking to London is a very strong one, like Brazil’s. but hey, we’re both competing against the USA dream team, which is off the charts.

but well, better to save the comments for the Olympic thread, right? hahaha

darquemode,

He looked quite tall in his little role in Pearl Harbour. Think he’s a solid choice for Thoros. No we just a flashback scene of him charging through a breach in Pyke’s walls with swords on fire!

darquemode,

Sala Baker is in fact not involved with the Hobbit which now makes him my favourite choice for Strong Belwas. Please David and Dan the duel in front of the gates in Mereen is bloody funny and entertaining! Please say he’s in!

Why is the budget so low that we get only 10 episodes per season? Why aren’t they 90 minutes long. Why are the other epic battles left for the further imagination of the fans. Please this is euch franchise on the level of the LOTR. You have now the chance to build it up so please do so.

Aegon the Conqueror,

See there you go again, always whinning…..

Thiago Waldhelm,

oh c´mon you always win at football! but I must remind you that my team defeated U.S. basketball team once *clears throat* ;)
ah the rivalry, I know… but I love Brasil and good sports.

Considering I watched 20 episodes in 11 days id say you have an outside shot.

I am SO excited! I finally got my mom to start watching season 1 with me and I’m hoping to catch her up before season 3 starts. You’d think 20 episodes in 9 months would be doable
