Mike Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 [quote name='Jaedyn Blackfyre' post='1587175' date='Nov 12 2008, 18.41']I'd say [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0002907/"]Alexander Skarsgard[/url] as Jaime Lannister. He's also been in the HBO series, [i]Generation Kill[/i] and [i]True Blood[/i]. I also like the Joffrey suggestions of [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1263986/"]Max Pirkis[/url] if he hasn't aged too much (1st choice) or [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0271657/"]Tom Felton[/url].[/quote] Beat me to it. Alexander Skarsgard would make an incredible Jaime Lannister. He is tall, athletic, an HBO regular, and can act. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robb19 Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 I imagine Christopher Lee as Tywin. Some of these are really good. Nice work guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sis Who Swears Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 I like the idea of [url="http://imstars.aufeminin.com/stars/fan/portia-de-rossi/portia-de-rossi-20070318-227616.jpg"]Portia de Rossi[/url] as Cersei. She played quite the evil bitch as Nell Porter on Ally McBeal... might be too big of a star now since the whole Ellen/marriage thing though....

kamekri Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 [quote name='Ser Greguh' post='1586488' date='Nov 12 2008, 11.57']A popular choice for Jaime in many of the old casting threads was [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0391326/"]Josh Holloway[/url], who plays Sawyer on [i]Lost[/i]. He's an ex-model and one of People's 50 most beautiful people once, so that fits. He's a good actor and certainly has the physicality, though one would hope he can eliminate the southern accent. And of course, any [i]Lost[/i] actor has the benefit of a pre-existing J.J. Abrams connection. Speaking of the [i]Lost[/i] connection, [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1431940/"]Evangeline Lilly[/url] wouldn't be half-bad as Cersei (remember, we don't have to cast blondes - tv/movie magic is a wonderful thing).[/quote] Second that. Josh Holloway as Jaime is a great choice...although he should really lose the accent for this role. Not too sure about Evangeline Lily tho.

Slynt Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 My dream is to have [img]http://www.hollywood-celebrity-pictures.com/Celebrities/Diane-Kruger/Diane-Kruger-28.JPG[/img] play Cersei Lannister. But I guess she is too expensive. I third Charles Dance as Tywin Lannister. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyacine_martell Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 [url="http://img2.timeinc.net/people/i/2007/specials/oscars07/show/beauty/emily_blunt.jpg"]Emily Blunt [/url]for Cersei. She's a powerhouse actress who can not only act anything--but look like anyone. She played a great beeatch in The Devil Wears Prada, and a sympathetic doormat in The Jane Austen Bookclub. [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0683253/"]Rosamund Pike [/url]might also be able to do a good Cersei. Beautiful, talented and sorely underused. [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0429363/"]Toby Jones [/url]for Tyrion. Fantastic actor and, though not a dwarf, already played one in Ever After. Simon Baker would be a fab Jaime--too bad he has that other hit show! [url="http://imagecache2.allposters.com/images/pic/MMPH/248246~James-Marsters-Posters.jpg"]James Marsters [/url]would [i]rule[/i] as Jaime. Look at him! I know he's coming up on 50 by now, but he looks waaaay younger and is one of the best actors on television, ever. He's got the emotional intelligence to get under Jaime's skin and can throw down a quip like no-one's business. Not everyone would recognize him as Spike from Buffy either. If he's available, I'd cast him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But masterful enough that you can feel sympathetic for him even when he's being a punk. [url="http://www.imdb.com/media/rm3013972992/nm0817980"]Jesse Spencer[/url] I think would be a hair too old for Lancel, but I could see him there. Puffed up by pride but also vulnerable. And cute. [url="http://www.imdb.com/media/rm3965098752/nm1442940"]Adair Tishler[/url] would look good as Myrcella since I think Dakota is probably too expensive now. Though she's not technically a Lannister, but [url="http://www.imdb.com/media/rm3975188992/nm1312575"]Olivia Wilde[/url] could be Shae. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maester Yobjascz Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 I support Josh Holloway for Jaime. I've always thought that [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1023018/"]Kelly Carlson[/url] from Nip/Tuck would be great as Cersei (though [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0881631/"]Karl Urban[/url] is a better match for her twin brother than Holloway). [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000614/"]Alan Rickman[/url] is the perfect Tywin. Just think of his voice saying "wherever whores go". Dinklage is Tyrion. This needs to happen.

phoenix_rising Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Skarsgard has to be on top of the casting wishlist for jaime.

[quote name='Ran' post='1586075' date='Nov 12 2008, 05.29']Unfortunately the years have probably moved past him if the series aims to be more or less true to character ages, but I'll bring him up because George mentioned him a number of years ago as one of the actors that was sort of in his head when he started the series: [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001748/"]Kurtwood Smith[/url] as Tywin Lannister.[/quote] Also a good choice.
