Official Casting: Everyone Else

Normally I wouldn't suggest him, but after reading the A-List thread, I think [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0722636/"]John Rhys-Davies[/url] might make a decent Robert. At least, that's how i pictured Robert. Come to think of it, he'd be too old for the part.

I think Kenneth Mitchell (Eric Green in [i]Jericho[/i]) could be a perfect Edmure Tully, though in the first serie his appearance would be limited to the last episode or so, I guess.

Staying in [i]Jericho[/i], "Skeet" Ulrich (Jake Green) could be a very nice Bronn. He is a little bit old, or I would vote for him as Jon.

[quote name='Angalin' post='1587363' date='Nov 12 2008, 22.27']Someone suggested [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0164918/"]Melinda Clarke[/url] for Cersei in the Lannister-casting thread, but she looks like more of a Melisandre to me.[/quote]


Agreed, she's even got the smooth and unshakable confidence of self.


In my heart, Gabriel Byrne has always been Davos.

I could see [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0331577/"]Luke Goss[/url] as Jaqen, or hell - Syrio since he's got the moves.

[url="http://www.imdb.com/media/rm694130944/nm0103195"]David Bradley[/url] should either be old man Frey or Craster.

[url="http://www.imdb.com/media/rm2327024640/nm0607185"]Jennifer Morrison[/url] as Margery.

[url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000614/"]Alan Rickman[/url] as...anyone.

He's brilliant, incredibly versatile (so much so that many people don't realize in just how many different roles they have seen him), it's well-known he supports intelligent, daring projects and works basically for free if the writing is excellent (and it most definitely is). Plus, he has worked with HBO before - if anyone hasn't seen Rasputin, go and get that DVD now! His performance, as well as the film, was simply amazing.

It would be a dream come true to see him get cast in ASoIaF.

I named him under the Lannisters too, but I guess this is the appropriate place:

[url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0829032/"]Ray Stevenson[/url] (Titus Pullo from Rome) as Sandor Clegane. He seems almost too perfect for the role to me. Actually, I think Vin Diesel would do a bang-up job as Sandor too, but he's too big a star likely (but he is a Dungeons & Dragon's geek, so maybe he'd still be interested...).

As for Gregor? Well, you don't need a really great actor but someone who is very physical and at least a performer and also just gigantic. Call me crazy, but I'm gonna go with [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0927833/"]The Big Show (real name Paul Wright)[/url]. Yeah, I'm talking about the WWE wrestler.

I know he'll only be in season 2, but [b][url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000374/"]Brad Dourif[/url][/b] needs to play Jaqen H'ghar (in either form!). He's too perfect for a Faceless Man.

[url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000317/"]Clancy Brown[/url] as [b]Brynden "Blackfish" Tully[/b].

[url="http://www.hokutodestiny.com/HokutoNoKen/Casting/michael%20wincott.jpg"]Michael Wincott[/url] as [b]Bronn[/b] (Top Dollar in the Crow, villains in Robin Hood and 1492, etc. -- great voice too).

[url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0376716/"]Christina Hendricks[/url] (Saffron in Firefly) as [b]Shae[/b] or perhaps Ygritte.

[url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0265637/"]Michael Fairman[/url] (Niska in Firefly, the creepy old sadistic mafia guy) as [b]Lord Frey[/b].

No one other than [url="http://tvcocktail.ivillage.com/entertainment/E_JoshHolloway_325.jpg"]Josh Holloway[/url] should be cast as The Hound

And maybe [url="http://images.eonline.com/eol_images/Profiles/20061006/244.welling.tom.100506.jpg"]Tom Welling[/url] as Renly

[url="http://www.teenhollywood.com/wallpaper/400x300/116/rachel-bilson-wallpaper.jpg"]Rachel Bilson [/url] as Shae :)

[quote name='Minotaur' post='1588678' date='Nov 14 2008, 01.43']I always saw Christoher Lee as Walder Frey
[url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000489/"]http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000489/[/url][/quote]

Christopher Lee is too commanding of a presence. He's Tywin in my book.

Walder Frey...Bob Barker.
