Regardless, she didn’t try for the role, she was actually cast as Cat and was in the first pilot. The one that was so bad no one could tell Jaime and Cersei were siblings, among other things. That pilot was chucked, and she was replaced by Fairley. I think b/c of schedule, or she had just given birth or something like that. You couldn't tell they were siblings? omg thats hilarious. I haven't really watched the show- only bits and pieces and I know that everybody is really unhappy. That should have been a really big warning sign - I mean you've got to do something seriously wrong, that you don't get across something so essential to the story and it's also not hard to get across imo I think she is gorgeous too and I could picture her as Cat actually.

Angel Eyes Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 Imagine if they made ASOIAF in the early 90s, with Liam Neeson as The Hound. Neeson as Darkman (1990) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elegant Woes Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 I have always imagined the Hound as a more pain-looking, dark haired version of two face in The Dark Knight. @Peach King really like your choice for Jon. He looks average - or at least by Hollywood standards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theon is described as handsome, so I do think Tyler Blackburn fits the bill. You're right that Jon isn't noted as particularly attractive though, maybe Ben Barnes is too good looking for him. Kyle Allen? And Cat isn't a knockout like Cersei, she's pretty in more of a homely way as you said. Jennifer Ehle would be better. (I think she actually tried out for the role but didn't get it) And yep, Disney's rules suck. That's what happened to a Peter Pan a while back I think. Oh no, poor Peter now he has to grow up after all Yes, I guess it has less to do with the descriptions of the characters (even though I also include specific descriptions, when it comes to my imagination), and more with my imagination. I just happen to picture book characters most of the time looking more like ordinary ppl, than being very attractiv even sometimes, if they are described as attractive. And tbh I didn't remember, that Theon is supposed to be handsome, never pictured him that way, maybe because I don't like him. But I do picture Dany, Sansa and Margaery as very pretty/beautiful, maybe because GRRM reminds us of that in every second sentence so it's hard to forget, actually all the Stark kids are cute in my mind including Jon (but not in a stand out kind of way) I like Jennifer Ehle as Cat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah me too!! I had just posted about that. Just not with open mouth and cheek and not with the eye popping out like that. (eye still being fine) But other than that .... pretty close Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neeson as Darkman (1990) Young Liam Neeson, I think, would have been pretty great for the role. He is really tall, has a crooked nose, deep raspy voice and is an amazing actor! He totally could have pulled it of. Don't know the movie, but man the makeup/prosthetics look amazing! That's how I pictured the scars and I think, that's how the Hound should look like ( I mean his skin -not the rest ), because it's a big part of his character! Haven't really watched much of the show, but I've seen showHound and I just don't think his burns are severe enough, one half of his face should be burnt imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh okay- that makes sense. And I guess a lot of that stuff, they do with cgi now and that probably wouldn't have worked for GOT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I almost included “only Gendry is stronger” to my post but I thought it was a given... Of course Gendry is strong, much stronger than Asa Butterfield.

So generally, person with more robust body will also have more robust face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
