Ammena Piper Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 [quote name='Naknakkus' post='1599138' date='Nov 24 2008, 12.09'][url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1248393/"]Sansa - Rachel Hurd-Wood[/url] She's almost 20, but I think she looks youthful enough. Might be too deep into the film world now, though. [url="http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c276/Rosa-Turandot/normal_03.jpg"]This = Sansa to me.[/url][/quote] I can see her as Sansa. Nice suggestion.

Ammena Piper Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 The immediate Stark Family. Some new suggestions, some 'seconding's. Just felt we were heavy on the Ned's, Robb's, and Jon's. Wanted to point out some choices for other roles. Jim Cavaziel as Eddard Stark [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001029/"]http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001029/[/url] [url="http://movies.yahoo.com/movie/1804578215/photo/241134"]http://movies.yahoo.com/movie/1804578215/photo/241134[/url] Matthew Macfadyen as Eddard Stark [url="http://www.mediastorehouse.com/pictures_564563/Matthew-MacFadyen.html"]http://www.mediastorehouse.com/pictures_56...-MacFadyen.html[/url] [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0532193/"]http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0532193/[/url] Kelly Macdonald as Catelyn Tully Stark [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0531808/"]http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0531808/[/url] [url="http://www.guardian.co.uk/film/filmblog/2008/jan/10/filmweeklytalksroadmovies"]http://www.guardian.co.uk/film/filmblog/20...talksroadmovies[/url] Finn Wittrock for Robb Stark [url="http://shakespearetheatrecompany.blogspot.com/2008/08/q-with-finn-wittrock.html"]http://shakespearetheatrecompany.blogspot....n-wittrock.html[/url] Tyler Neitzel as Robb Stark [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0624900/"]http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0624900/[/url] [url="http://media.movieweb.com/news/04.2007/hb3_01.jpg"]http://media.movieweb.com/news/04.2007/hb3_01.jpg[/url] Barney Clark (he's older than his 'Oliver Twist' days) as Robb Stark [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1263280/"]http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1263280/[/url] [url="http://www.cinecon.com/news.php?id=0509307"]http://www.cinecon.com/news.php?id=0509307[/url] Max Thieriot as Robb Stark [url="http://www.aolcdn.com/red_galleries/max-thieriot-400ds0704.jpg"]http://www.aolcdn.com/red_galleries/max-th...t-400ds0704.jpg[/url] [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1302735/"]http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1302735/[/url] I actually would prefer if Jon Snow -was not- handsome/dreamy in the typical Hollywood way. He needs to be an outsider in looks as well as self-perception. Therefore, a very long shot, but if he can do drama it would be a breakout role for him: Justin Berfield as Jon Snow (would be typecast as Pyp) [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0073678/"]http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0073678/[/url] And then here's the Hollywood glam option someone suggested that I would agree with. Gregory Smith as Jon Snow [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0808376/"]http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0808376/[/url] [url="http://www.sliceofscifi.com/2007/10/05/slice-of-scifi-inteview-with-gregory-smith/"]http://www.sliceofscifi.com/2007/10/05/sli...-gregory-smith/[/url] Haley Ramm as Sansa Stark [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1391252/"]http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1391252/[/url] [url="http://www.haleyramm.com"]http://www.haleyramm.com[/url] Don't know if she can act... (I don't watch 'Eastenders') Madeline Duggan as Sansa Stark [url="http://madelineduggan28.tripod.com/"]http://madelineduggan28.tripod.com/[/url] (second Naknakkus' suggestion) Rachel Hurd-Ward [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1248393/"]http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1248393/[/url] Niamh Wilson for Arya Stark [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1509081/"]http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1509081/[/url] [url="http://niamhwilson.net/"]http://niamhwilson.net/[/url] Chandler Canterbury for Bran Stark [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2425105/"]http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2425105/[/url] Dillon Freasier as Bran Stark [url="http://www.teenhollywood.com/gallery/7592/156392/9/dillon-freasier.html"]http://www.teenhollywood.com/gallery/7592/...n-freasier.html[/url] Jake Church as Bran Stark [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2106231/"]http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2106231/[/url] Ty Simpkins as Prince Tommen Baratheon or Rickon Stark [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1339223/"]http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1339223/[/url] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AxB Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 I was going to suggest this guy for Jon, being as he was playing a teenager from 1999 to 2004. But it turns out he's actually a very young looking 41 years old now, so give him a beard and make him Ned (or maybe Benjen): [url="http://www.imdb.com/media/rm1766168064/nm1303061"]Keith Warwick[/url] Scottish, unnattached to anything TV actor. Realistically good choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cronos619 Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 I would like to add to the list for consideration for Jon or Theon [url="http://www.averyclark.com/"]http://www.averyclark.com/[/url] and for Arya or Sansa (depending on aging of the characters), [url="http://geocities.com/elizabethannokey/"]http://geocities.com/elizabethannokey/[/url] [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1060764/"]http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1060764/[/url] although she is a grown woman, with the right costuming and make-up she is small enough to pull off even as young as 12 or 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iggybel Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 @Ammena Piper: I think you gave great suggestions and I'll second several of your votes: Kelly Macdonald as Catelyn Tully Stark Barney Clark as Robb Stark Rachel Hurd-Ward as Sansa Jim Cavaziel as Eddard Stark Matthew Macfadyen as Eddard Stark [url="http://media.photobucket.com/image/matthew%20macfadyen/Angus_Young29/Matthew%20Macfadyen/thmcfayden2.jpg"]Another photo[/url] I'll add a suggestion: [url="http://media.photobucket.com/image/anthony%20howell/Phant0mACE/Various%20Stills/AnthonyHowell.jpg"]Anthony[/url] [url="http://media.photobucket.com/image/anthony%20howell/vae_icons/David%20Tennant%20scans/romeo_anthonyhowell.jpg"]Howell[/url] as Eddard Stark [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0397928/"]http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0397928/[/url] I think he has both acting ability and the closest physical resemblance; mid-30's, tall, dark hair, gray eyes, long face, nose and not too handsome in as you say, "the typical Hollywood way". And a major plus, his imdb says he rides horses too.

RWHamel Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 I would think that [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0266824/"]Dakota Fanning[/url] would make a good Sansa, and it would be just the type of part she would be looking at now to advance her career.

Ammena Piper Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 [quote name='RWHamel' post='1600856' date='Nov 26 2008, 05.41']I would think that [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0266824/"]Dakota Fanning[/url] would make a good Sansa, and it would be just the type of part she would be looking at now to advance her career.[/quote] This is a very interesting casting idea. If they could get her, it would generate HUGE buzz for the project. And (crossing fingers) heavily lean HBO execs to pickup the series. Also I think the role would have the potential to toss her into more serious categories rather than cute preteen. She could start being cast as Leading Lady rather than Supporting Child Character. After seeing this recent picture of her, I actually think she should go for Dany... [url="http://www.celebitchy.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/wenn2126445.jpg"]http://www.celebitchy.com/wp-content/uploa...wenn2126445.jpg[/url] She's at the right age in real life. Always has a mature acting quality to her. And she's a star. She needs a next bigtime breakout role to make the world see her artistry. A role like Sansa or Dany would shock and awe everyone's expectation of her abilities. Cons: She's a feature film star. She's expensive. She's a star. Expensive. But then hey, Anna Paquin is an Academy Award Winner and she's on HBO... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minotaur Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 How about Harry Lloyd for Jon Snow or Rodd Stark, he's a british tv actor, whom I think looks the part and has got the talent.

Maester Joergensen Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2240326/"]Avan Jogia[/url] has the looks for Jon Stark.

Ammena Piper Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 We need more Benjen's.... Here's my contribution: [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0542133/"]Joe Manganiello[/url] as Benjen Stark. Might be too Hollywood Glam for Benjen, but he seems to fit my perception of the Stark Family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Galecki as Jon Snow [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0301959/"]http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0301959/[/url] Pro: Not Hollywood Glam. Emotional vulnerability. Good actor.

ohmystars Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 If I were going on looks alone, this actress strikes me as a very close Catelyn: [url="http://www.imdb.com/media/rm4017067520/nm2832695"]Deborah Ann Woll[/url] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverstar Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 Seconding, thirding, fourthing, whatevering Sean Bean for Ned. I like the idea of [url="http://www.smh.com.au/ffximage/2006/11/21/gillian_anderson_wideweb__470x331,0.jpg"]Gillian Anderson[/url] for Catelyn.

erkman27 Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 I realize this is a bit vain on my part but I'd like to throw my name in the hat for Jon Snow. I have been doing quite a bit of film work in the past few years and am slowly making a name for myself in the industry. Please search my name on IMDB. Thanks! Erik A.

Angalin Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 A plus for Gillian Anderson is that she can do an English accent, viz Bleak House. Obviously the same can be said of Kelly Macdonald. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
