Ingelheim Posted August 8, 2014 Author Share Posted August 8, 2014 By the way, you people realize the Jon Snow from the books is actually a short guy, don't you? Probably 5'8. Both Stannis and Tycho towered over him. In my own Spanish version they say Stannis is 6 inches taller than him, but that's probably not in the original one.

He's shorter than Robb, and Mormont says he will have to wear Longclaw over his back until he gains a few inches. He's never described as tall by anyone.

Annara Snow Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Renly - with a taller, better-looking and more charismatic actor. Littlefinger, possibly with James Callis or Michael Sheen, but in any case, an actor who will not speak in a low, growling voice. Illyrio, with someone who's actually overweight, perhaps Ian McNiece.

boojam Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 You know, either before season 2 or , maybe, 3, there was an article about 10 actors who turned down , for one reason or another, a part on the show. I believe the fan choice for Mance Rayder turned down the role, seems to have been offered to him , maybe first. So one could have a recast and it be turned down.

I think you are talking about Dominic West, but he didn't turn down the show; his agent understood wrong the schedule (he thought Dominic had to spend a few months in Iceland when in reality it was just a few weeks) so he turned it down.

JonCon's Red Beard Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 I wouldn't recast anyone but I'd cast a few missing people... (Funny that Jon isn't tall. Isn't Rhaegar described as taller than Viserys?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People just want a tall hero, shallow but true. I actually like Kit. Can't imagine any other Jon Snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chebyshov Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 I'm not the biggest fan of recasts, so instead I'd cast a dialect coach for Aidan Gillen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being said I never pictured Jon as short, just average height for a 14-16 year old kid. Kit is playing a 3 years older version of Jon and every male actor he has a scene with appears to just tower over him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackfyre Gateau Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Littlefinger, possibly with James Callis or Michael Sheen, but in any case, an actor who will not speak in a low, growling voice. I love Aidan when he's on form - it's when the accent mid sentence goes awry that bothers me on occasion. Michael Sheen would have been great though. I'd re-cast Ramsay Bolton (or get him a dialogue coach to make his accent more 'baseborn') and possibly I'd recast 'Yara' too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
