About Yea High Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 I'm going to jump on the [url="http://www.averyclark.com/"]Avery Clark[/url] bandwagon. I'm actually thinking silmarilli's first choice - Theon Greyjoy. If for no other reason than to make a known [i]A Song of Ice and Fire[/i] fan grab his own sister's tits. Consider it hazing. ... Hopefully the role of Asha won't actually be played by the actor's real sister, if he has one in the biz. (Or maybe that's even better hazing) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adelle Tully Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 I have to say I've seen some good choices, so I'll second some: Kirsty Alley for Lysa Arryn - that was my very first thought when I read the character's parts in the book! Katee Sackoff for Brienne - her face a the masculine quality and is handsome enough for Hollywood. Avery Clark for Theon Greyjoy - he's got the "everything is comical" look about him, it looks like he'd be good at playing someone who's "slimy yet satisfying" which is how I picture Theon. Olivia Wilde as Shae - OMG yes, I wouldn't have ordinarily looked at her for that part, but now that it's mentioned! I'd like to add Alexis Bledel for Margaery. She's too old for Sansa but appears just the right age for Margaery. [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0088127/"]Alexis[/url]. Margaery is supposed to be exceedingly beautiful and I think she fits the part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Venardhi Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Quick thought hit me watching The Daily Show this evening: [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001459/"]Brynden "The Blackfish" Tully[/url]* anyone? *Assuming of course he can do a convincing voice that will better fit in with the setting.

JeriMarie Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Sean Bean for Bronn would be a great choice too. :) Zoe Bell as Brienne...thats a good suggestion! This kid Jake Richardson could maybe pull off Theon Greyjoy, although is older than the pictures on imdb.

Ormond Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 I will also add a vote for Avery Clark as Theon, though I think he could also play Marillion or Renly. He has experience playing both roles in several Shakespeare plays, as well as [i]Rosencrantz & Guildenstern[/i], which should be excellent training for ASOIAF. Plus I really would like to see some actors with a lot of stage experience in the series. Maybe it's a prejudice, but I think in general stage training would be better for pulling off the sort of gravity I think ASOIAF needs. I'm afraid that actors with only television experience might be a bit too campy or modernist in their interpretations of the characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turinturambar Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 I like the BIG SHOW to play Sandor Clegane.

Fate's Bitch Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 I remember in one of the old casting threads, [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0954225/"]Kevin Zegers[/url] was a fairly popular suggestion for Theon. Now whether he's cast or not, [url="http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p174/yummytofu/V_Wparty32pmc.jpg"]this picture[/url] inspired me to think about Asha. The woman in the picture is Freja Beha and in terms of looks, she fits the [url="http://www.abload.de/img/26737cavabsss080012122zb7j.jpg"]character[/url] [url="http://www.abload.de/img/freja0131082lp8e75r.jpg"]description[/url] perfectly. She comes across as very Asha-ish in [url="http://www.abload.de/img/fbatte4dv.jpg"]her attitude[/url] as well. She's even Danish so she's got a Viking thing going on already. Only thing is she's a model so who knows if she can act? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durendale Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 Another Rodrick Cassel possibility: Vincent Regan [url="http://www.imdb.com/media/rm100440320/nm0716490"]http://www.imdb.com/media/rm100440320/nm0716490[/url] (left of Butler) or John Nettles [url="http://www.imdb.com/media/rm234920960/tt0118401"]http://www.imdb.com/media/rm234920960/tt0118401[/url] Maester luwin: David Jason [url="http://www.imdb.com/media/rm3096222976/tt0108967"]http://www.imdb.com/media/rm3096222976/tt0108967[/url] (maybe a bit too old) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tysha Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 Ramsey Bolton - [url="http://st.blog.cz/z/zhor.blog.cz/obrazky/4685030.jpg"]Hans Matheson[/url]. He gives me the creeps. Lysa - [url="http://www.dirkmaggs.dswilliams.co.uk/graphics/oliva%20colman2.jpg"]Olivia Colman[/url]. Primarily known for her comedy work but she can do it all. Margaery Tyrell - [url="http://www.theatermania.com/news/images/14314a.jpg"]Andrea Riseborough[/url]. I've loved this girl for a long time and seeing The Devil's Whore last night just further confirmed how awesome she is. Okay, that's my last casting post!

K26dp Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001772/"]Patrick Stewart[/url] as Ser Courtnay Penrose, castellan of Storm's End. I know it's a small role, but for some reason Stewart is in my head when I read that section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Doctor Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 I think that kid who played Draco Malfoy from Harry Potter, would play a good Joffrey, or he would have when he was younger. (not sure how much his looks have changed). I also think the guy who played Snape would be a very good Roose Bolton. And, of course, I agree that Rowan Akinson would be the perfect Vargo Hoat. Thats all I really have to contribute. I have faith that whoever they end upo casting will be good though. Especially if they are unknown actors. It would make it fresh.

JeriMarie Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 As for Gendry, depending on what age limit we are going for, how about Stansilav Ianevski?
