FranklynFowler Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 I was just reading the cast list for season 4 and i Saw rickon as one of the characters. In the TV SERIES the last we see of him is right before bran, hodor and the reeds head to the wall and Osha and Rickon go off in their own way. In the BOOKS we last see rickon in A Clash of KIngs back a Winterfell and we don't see him again. So what role can they possibly give him if there's no story to tell yet?? A DANCE WITH DRAGONS SPOILER It's hinted that he's gone to Skagos, but other than that fact we know nothing of what, why, how or what happens when Davos goes hunting for him. Also Davos's story in the tv series is nowhere near that point. at the very earliest Manderly could send him off at the end of this season but definitely not in time to glimpse rickon.

Probabily we will see the journey to Skagos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FranklynFowler Posted February 26, 2014 Author Share Posted February 26, 2014 Yeah but even then they'd have to invent something, because GRRM hasnt revealed their reasons, or if they get into any trouble on the way, it could be detremental to the series, if they event something. or even spoil the books, if they somehow reveal something that we haven;t read yet.

Dysun Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 They will probably recast him in 2/3 years when Davos finally goes to pick him up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KamiShikkaku Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 They might have Osha and Rickon pursued by Ramsay for an episode or two (or just a close call where they almost run into each other). I highly doubt we're going to see Skagos, but I guess it's possible that Osha will mention it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

protar Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 I think they'll give him a miss this season, but Season 5 could well include Davos' adventures in Skaagos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice Wolf Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Has it been confirmed if the actors who play Rickon and Osha are appearing in season 4? Or will they be left out this season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonCon's Red Beard Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 I doubt they will recast him. He's not like Tommen who at the time was barely recognised for a few scenes. Rickon had some importance and dialogue along with Bran. For instance, the kid playing Sweet Robin is returning, I think. Here he's back in season 1: http://www.gameofthronesbr.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/Catelyn-Stark-with-Lysa-and-Robin-Arryn-house-stark-24506675-1024-576.png He looks like this now: http://www.imdb.com/media/rm4186297088/nm2996220?ref_=nmmi_mi_all_pbl_1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fightbringer Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 I think they'll give him a miss this season, but Season 5 could well include Davos' adventures in Skaagos. doubt davos will see skagos until season 6. I think given the fact he is probably around the wall at episode 9, he wont set off at least till the end of season 4, they might let him take a while to get to white harbour, and even if they dont i think they will have him supposedly killed off for at least half of the season before they reveal he isnt dead, since its an easy way not to include unnecessary scenes just to remind the audience he is there. This is a plot with relatively little in it, so they are more likely to spread it out over a season with less scenes, however, I could be wrong as it also has to run parallel to the Battle of Winterfell storyline, which, especially given Roose's appearance back in the North this season, looks as though it is moving a lot quicker than the Stannis/Davos storyline is, so I reckon that we will at least see some of the build up to the Battle of Winterfell in S5. Obviously, this means Wyman Manderly can only stay in White Harbour for so long (unless the writers come up with a way around this) so he will need to tell Davos to hop over to Skagos reasonably early in S5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhaquentis Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 The boy will definitely come back to the show if asked, it will be much more emotional for the audience to see the old Rickon all grown up (one day) than just some new boy. (Plus, it's a successful show.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadwood Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 I thought Rickon was recast because the current one didn't have the acting chops? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Desmond Wine's Bane Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 I thought Rickon was recast because the current one didn't have the acting chops? The old one was only ever cast as a recurring extra. If not for his goodbye scene with Bran I don't think a recast somewhere down the track would be a big issue, but the young fellow knocked it out of the park in that scene. Otoh, GRRM has said he is reconsidering Rickon and Osha and will likely give them more of a story going forward than he had planned. If that is the case then a return may be a couple of seasons away and a recast won't really be that big of an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheReal_Rebel Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Now that Locke is pursuing them I'm particularly worried than when they escaped Winterfell. So I really want to see Osha & Rickon get on a ship and headed away from any perusers. Since they teased this, I expect to see them in an upcoming episode.http://youtu.be/TQ8Kto3wA-g Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montey14 Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 remember that Roose sends his hunter after them ....perhaps he gets close to finding rickon on his way to the umbers.....maybe the Hunter meets a cruel fate .....just as the mountain dishes out to the goat......remember the Great John is still a captive at the twins....and they remember the gbolton treachery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
