Stubby Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 As Wert kindly posted in the speculation thread, there have been some confirmed castings at THR.com:Link to Story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morrigan Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Alfie Allen doesn't look right for Theon to me at ALL. I know make-up and costumes and growing a beard can do wonders, though. The rest can all look the part, but I'm not familiar with their work. Knowing HBO though, I assume they are talented, since I've never seen a bad actor in an HBO production that I recall.

mashiara Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 You know, I've tried clicking on that link from Wert's LJ. Then from Wert's FB page. Now from here. It just doesn't want to load all the way for me! Bad Internet!It's good to finally have the names. I'm sure they are all talented and they were the best selections for the roles.

SergioCQH Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Tamzin Merchant better act her ass off.Ya know, I think GRRM set up this whole delayed casting announcement thing so he can have his fun toying with us. Once we figured it all out, the announcement was made without fanfare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brude Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 I will never get why people don't find Tamzin Merchant beautiful. Looks-wise, I think she is a pretty perfect choice for Dany.Video (some NSFW stuff in it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garlan the Gallant Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 For those of you who cant or dont want to load it we have:Nikolaj Coster-Waldau as Jaime Lannisterhttp://www.imdb.com/name/nm0182666/Tamzin Merchant as Daenerys Targaryenhttp://www.imdb.com/name/nm1708957/Richard Madden as Robb Starkhttp://www.imdb.com/name/nm0534635/Iain Glen as Jorah Mormonthttp://www.imdb.com/name/nm0322513/Alfie Allen as Theon Greyjoyhttp://www.imdb.com/name/nm0654295/Sophie Turner as Sansa Starkhttp://www.imdb.com/name/nm1909961/Maisie Williams as Arya Stark-------------------------------------Does anyone have pictures of Sophie Turner (Doctor Who) and Maisie Williams (I think this is her first role). Also did anyone guess Richard Madden. I don't recall that name being thrown around. We got four of the roles right. I think thats pretty impressive.Also, I think nows a great time for people to start realizing that they arent going to like every casting pick nor is the casted actor/actress necessarily look like how you picture the character in your mind. After all, part of the wonder of a book is that you get to create the character for yourself; TV doesnt let you do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Belwas Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Huh. I can't find any pictures of Sophie Turner or Maisie Williams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHalfman Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 That's because it's not, as Sev posted on the news link, the Sophie from Doctor Who anyways. Those two child actors have not had any parts previously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacopo Belbo Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 just wanted to say good work on all of the guessing ... i can say that back in july i did suggest NC-W for a role during all of the casting posts ... of course i tabbed him for Renly not Jamie ... and also in the same posts i told people to get real and stop suggesting silly and unobtainable people like Sean Bean .... yeah ... doh!I still think belfast native shane brolly would make a great bronn .... but that isn't for a while so i guess that Ceseri is where all the suspense is now ...

TheHalfman Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 But in the news article it has her listed from Doctor Who....It could be right, but maybe not. The media isn't always perfect. I was just restating the info one of the posters on here was saying.Also as far as, "Tamzin Merchant ugh," I will say that she's not "hot" in my opinion but she is by no means disgusting or anything. She's a fine looking girl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacopo Belbo Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 But in the news article it has her listed from Doctor Who....that is because THR is lazy and stupid ... the actress from that Dr. Who episode is 40 ... now that would be some outside the box casting for sansa ... way outside the box ...

NoSpeakEnglish Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 I would like to congratulate ASOIAF fans for you really proved yourself this time, we sure have great puzzle solvers.I'm really happy with the cast including Tamzin, I think she is extremely beautiful.

NoSpeakEnglish Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Wow Sansa graduated theatre in 1992, I didn't know they will age Sansa this much 2Legit2Quit :stunned: :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brude Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 So, Richard Madden played Romeo at The Globe (I assume they mean the one in London), and he apparently got some very good reviews! Impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadAngel Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 I can find pictures of the adults though nowhere of the children.Can someone(D&D/production/agent/anyone) simply take a picture and post it somewhere and a link to it here.Both are unknowns but i honestly would love to be able to see how close to my Idea of Sansa and Arya they look.I am sure i am not the only one, so please post support of this here and hopefully If we ask for it enough they will do it.
