shewolf85 Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 This is a dream pick but I thought it would be awesome. He is exactly how I picture LF. Of course, he has gotten a little old for this part, but he would rock it.LF Check it out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SergioCQH Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Too big an actor. Too small a role. Not sure he would fit Littlefinger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HyperVolk Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 It's so odd to hear actors who are not British doing British accents. I was blow away when David Tennant from Doctor Who spoke in an interview and he's got this heavy Scottish brogue. I was like WTF?! And we just wont talk about Angelina Jolie doing a cockney. *shiver* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iheartseverus Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 And we just wont talk about Angelina Jolie doing a cockney. *shiver*Or how about whatever that accent of hers was supposed to be in 'Alexander?' :ack: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fin Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Too big an actor. Too small a role. Not sure he would fit Littlefinger.Frankly, I'm not even sure he would lift his little finger to get cast in the series. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrueMetis Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Who said the ASoIaF world is British?I'm confused :huh: .They're getting most of their actors from the UK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K26dp Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Seems a little too old for the role. And yes, he's probably too big for TV.I've I were going to cast him for the show regardless of that, it would be for Dolorous Edd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Pita Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Dolorous Edd needs to be Alan Tudyk, I'm sorry. That man is god in redhead form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mme Erzulie Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Who said the ASoIaF world is British?I'm confused :huh: .Well, since the map of Westeros is basically a modified map of the British Isle (not Ireland) and aGoT is basically a recounting of the War of Roses, and there weren't many Americans around in the Middle Ages...

Dornish Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Too old, and I'm a man who loves me some Kevin Spacey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dornish prince Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 And too American.ra(s)cist :Pi don't really see him as petyr though. however, i will say that kevin spacey is quite possibly the most talented actor ever. i have no doubt that he could competently pull off an english accent. his katherine hepburn impersonation was amazing.well, except for the fact that cockneys have tinee li ul mowuths :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragon wolf Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 What about Andy Serkis as Littlefinger? I always imagined Petyr as being this little guy with huge ego and a real snotty attitude, I think Serkis can pull that off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warden of the MidWest Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 I always think of Kevin Spacey as Roose Bolton. A small, thin man with a very light and creepy voice. I don't know if it's the creepiness of Spacey in Seven that does it for me or if I read it here first and then automatically fused the two togehter.

I always imagined Petyr as being this little guy with huge ego and a real snotty attitude, I think Serkis can pull that off.Serkis is creepy, but not the slick that I feel from LF.Plus I'd be totally expecting him to get all wrinkly and pale...going on about hobbitzes....The more I see Jason Isaacs the more I like him for LF.Shouldn't have trusted meOnly CatBroodingThoughtfulDeviousMangey (not that we ever see LF looking dishevelled) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Pita Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Jason Isaacs definitely.Andy Serkis should totally be Roose Bolton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingslayer Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Well, since the map of Westeros is basically a modified map of the British Isle (not Ireland) and aGoT is basically a recounting of the War of Roses, and there weren't many Americans around in the Middle Ages...On the other hand, GRRM is American, and Westeros isn't really "medieval" in any RL sense of the term. Occasional archaic language notwithstanding, it should be taken for what it is: an imaginary and (dare I say?) timeless world. Personally, I've always seen some cultural and geographic similarities between Westeros and, say, the western fourth of North America. Dorne = Mexico, the Reach = southern California, the Lannister "west" = northern and central California, the riverlands = Willamette Valley/western Washington, the Vale of Arryn is somewhere in the Rockies and the north is Canada! It's all in where you stand. And GRRM is from New Mexico, after all. ;)All of which is moot because I agree with the point that, now they're casting British actors, they should continue choosing them. I'd hate to see a bad fake accent or two ruin continuity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight o' Pansies Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 How about James Callis(Gaius Baltar from BSG)? He's British, witty, can play a schemer, has this wonderful condencending tone and can grow a cute beard while still looking immaculate(sp?) and smart(as in "smart looks").James CallisEdited to add: Also, he's the right age and not too tall(1.73).And he's divine. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
