Padraig O'Sullivan Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Jennifer Ehle was the original choice for Catelyn Stark but dropped out due to family commitments. If she were able to join the show this time round, what would it be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Konradsmith Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 It's been said before but it would be nice and ironic if she were cast as Barbrey Dustin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UVA Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 It's been said before but it would be nice and ironic if she were cast as Barbrey Dustin. That is a fantastic suggestion though! JE would be perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annara Snow Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 It's been said before but it would be nice and ironic if she were cast as Barbrey Dustin. I'm 100% certain that Barbrey Dustin will be cut. There's really no reason for her to be on the show, especially with so many other new characters in season 5. She doesn't really do anything that important other than clue the readers on Brandon's womanizing ways, which is important for the Ashara mystery, but that backstory is entirely missing from the show, so it wouldn't mean anything to the audience.

Eagle1 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Jennifer Ehle as Catelyn Stark would have been perfect! i am so sad it didn't happen :bawl: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~DarkHorse~ Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Nah, Michelle Fairley was amazing as Catelyn and I know she will nail LS too. It's just a pity they limited her material, she was one of the best actors on the show. Jennifer Ehle would make an interesting Lady Dustin but I agree with Annara Snow, she will probably be cut.

Modesty Lannister Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Jennifer Ehle would make me believe why LF fell in love with Cat, but sadly it never happened. I also think she would make a beautiful lady Dustin. She may appear as Joanna Lannister in Jaime's dream. It would be a shame not to include her.

Waxfoot Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 She could play Taena Merryweather? I could see the show fleshing this character out as the foil to Cersei. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhaegar Jaime Tyrell Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Jennifer Ehle would make me believe why LF fell in love with Cat. Michelle is a great actress but her face looks harsh and northern. Jennifer looks more feminine and you can imagine she would be out of place in the North and you can imagine why Littlefinger loved her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Zee Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Jennifer Ehle also has a greater resemblance to Sophie Turner. You could see that LF would be imagining mother and daughter as one person. http://www4.pictures.zimbio.com/gi/Jennifer+Ehle+Premiere+Columbia+Pictures+Robocop+LnYQah3LCChl.jpg http://www.alearned.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Sophie%2BTurner%2BLong%2BHairstyles%2BLong%2BStraight%2B_lvgDJ_ozCQx.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, she is an amazing actress and would be a smashing LS as well. She was the perfect Catelyn Stark, our Liz Bennett. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Modesty Lannister Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 There's always Septa Lemore... OMG. I forgot about that. That would be great, but I don't think she wants to do GoT. She has been concentrating on the theatre for ages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would have loved to have seen Lizzy Bennett as Cat Stark (much better than Michelle) or Lady Dustin. In fact, the affair with Brandon with JE as Barbary Dustin makes it more believable in my mind.

Rhaegar Jaime Tyrell Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 What the hell is a northern face? I'm from the north of England. Let’s say it’s a polite way of saying she looks rough and like the angry step-sister. Jennifer Ehle looks refined and lady-like. Please try and read between the lines. I don’t like being critical about looks. However Michelle doesn’t look like how I pictured Catelynn in the book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
