Westeros Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 HBO has just revealed that they have cast the two leads for A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms: The Hedge Knight, known to fans world wide as Dunk and Egg. Peter Claffey, an Irish rugby player-turned-ctor, will be Ser Duncan the Tall. Dexter Sol Ansell has in turn been cast as Dunk’s squire Egg; Ansell’s been acting since the age of 4, and most recently appeared as the young Coriolanus in The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes. A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is set to begin filming in Northern Ireland, the old stomping grounds of Game of Thrones, in June with production likely to last several months. https://www.westeros.org/Graphics/Images/_medium/AKotSK-Dunk_and_Egg.png read on >>> View the full article Ser Arthurs Dawn and Annara Snow 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hairy bear Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 They seem good choices. Dunk really looks thick as a castle wall, and he's nearly as tall as he should be. And I guess they can made him seem even taller with high shoes and forced perspectives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandy Clegg Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 I wonder if he'll keep his Irish accent? I can see that working for Dunk, although he's meant to be from Fleabottom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dragon Demands Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 (edited) Yeah but Davos uses a Brummie accent, from northeast England Edited April 7 by The Dragon Demands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dragon Demands Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 They’re filming in only two months - I wonder if any of the old contacts in Northern Ireland have noticed activity starting up again: set builders, extras, horse rental, etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Grey Wolf Strikes Back Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 They certainly look the part. Like the connection between Dunk and Brienne with the blue eyes. The Bard of Banefort 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Potsk Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Claffey looks uncannily like the illustrations in A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms. It's the chin, I think. Just give him long hair and it's as if the illustrations were based on him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceChampion Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 By the way, @Ran shouldn't there be a more appropriate part of the forum to put news of projects not GOT and not HOTD in? Where do we discuss the Kit Harrington recently talked about SNOW not currently being developed any more? Maybe an GOT Related In Development Projects sub is needed...( or In and Out of Development).

trollrrmartin Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Excellent casting. Can't believe mainstream audiences will know who Bloodraven is. Annara Snow 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
