'A Game of Thrones' cast begins to roll in. Ned is cast!
- Thread starter Venardhi
- Start date
If all of GRRM's works gets picked up for a series by HBO, a prominent character in the 2nd work "A Clash of Kings" is Ser Davos Seaworth, the Onion Knight. Colm Meaney would be great for this part. Ser Davos seems to be the Everyman of ASOFAI.
He looks like a good Jon.
Seven seasons at most. The book series will run for seven books, and the plan is for each season to adapt at least one book (some of the books may be collapsed into one season, which would of course cut down the overall number of seasons - the casting notes suggest that a rumor that the fourth and fifth books may be collapsed into a single season may well be true).
Now remove the hair and add one for StannisI'm really, really bored today.
Six more roles have been cast according to George R.R. Martin, although he's not at liberty to divulge them. They should be announced pretty soon. Two of the roles are Jaime Lannister and Theon Greyjoy, while at least three are female characters (one may be Dany if the sixth role cast is also a female character, bringing it to a total of four female characters out of the six).
Jennifer Ehle is a great choice to play Catelyn.

Interesting choices with some interesting credits.
That's a gorgeous calendar, and I'm glad I have it.
It's unfortunate that Dabels' clusterfuckery has guaranteed that we won't get another.
Here are some images from GRRM's blog. BTW, the Sophie Turner on IMDb isn't the same one. She and Maizie Williams are complete newcomers and they look the part judging by the tiny, tiny pics.
Ah, I see. The story in the The Hollywood Reporter listed Doctor Who as a credit for the Sophie Turner who's been cast, and since it was only one of two credits on that Sophie Turner's IMDB page I thought she was the appropriate young actress. But that's obviously not the case.
