shewolf85 Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 We know he has been cast, but are their any clues out there as to who it may be? I thought the Little Brother clues were about him, but Benjen seemed to be the one. Just wondering if we've heard anything on the Bran front. Can't wait to see who was cast, especially since Martin said that this was one of the most difficult roles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halfhand Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 The only thing I got is that over on WiC we have had a stage mom posting on the site for a few months now. She originally found the blog when she was searching the web after her son was set to audition for Bran. Apparently he audition a few times a couple months back and she has been waiting and waiting to find out if he got the part. Well, as soon as GRRM announced that one of the major roles had been cast, Sue stopped posting and we haven't heard from her regarding her son since. Might be coincidence, might not be.Her sons name is Freddy Downham and here is what he looks like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iheartseverus Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 Cute little kid! But, he wants to be just like Boris Karloff?? :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shewolf85 Posted October 5, 2009 Author Share Posted October 5, 2009 Ok, scratch the post. I could've sworn that in GRRM's blog he said that Bran had been cast but no clues. Just looking for it in his Blog archives I couldn't find the reference though. Maybe I am making things up. Definitely haven't heard anything about Bran for awhile.

fitheach Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 Ugh, stage mothers.Makes me think of the stage mom character played by David Walliams on Little Britian. Priceless, and not too far off the mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JungianQueen Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 Cute kid. I'd be ok with any kid who can act.I still have Phantom Menace nightmares about the muppet-headed brat who ruined "Annie" Skywalker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le_Saboteur Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 That kid is wickedly cute, and looks a fair bit like the dude playing Robb. Very Tully-ish, I'd totally be happy with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daimonion Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 If he auditioned for as far as a few months back and only just now got the part - could that mean they "had to settle" since they (hoped to, but) couldn't find anyone better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fitheach Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 That kid is wickedly cute, and looks a fair bit like the dude playing Robb. Very Tully-ish, I'd totally be happy with him.Except Bran is supposed have the Stark coloring, like Arya and Jon. Guess they'll dye his hair dark.Jeez I hope they didn't settle, this is too an important role. A lot hinges on all the kids acting skills, especially for Bran.

My Lady Ashalind Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Well, as soon as GRRM announced that one of the major roles had been cast, Sue stopped posting and we haven't heard from her regarding her son since. Might be coincidence, might not be.Or..it might mean he didn't get the part. Disappointed she stopped posting.He's an adorable little guy no question about that. And looks the part to me. But looks mean little if the kid can not act well enough.ETA: Fitheach--Bran has the Tully coloring, not Stark.From Wiki:He inherited the Tully coloring from his mother, having auburn hair and blue eyes.

A lot hinges on all the kids acting skills, especially for Bran.Yeah, as MLA says, Bran looks like Catelyn, not Ned. The only 'Stark' looking Starks are Jon and Arya. Robb, Sansa, Bran and Rickon all have the Tully look, like their mother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, I really thought he had Stark coloring. I looked for your reference in Wikipedia and couldn't find it... Guess I have to read the books again, tough business to have to do that ;).

Halfhand Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 Or..it might mean he didn't get the part. Disappointed she stopped posting.Yeah, that is certainly possible as well. I wouldn't put too much stock in it either way. Just that the OP asked if there was any rumors or leads as to who they may have cast and that is the only thing I could come up with.

Ser_not_appearing_yet Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 I'd say clues are fairly pointless in this case. I mean, what can grrm say which will hint towards a kid who (almost certainly) has no screen or stage credits? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boiled leather Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 got to love twitter. Bran is Isaac Hempstead-Wright per Maureen Ryan of the Chicago Tribune. Here's her column.no. I don't work much.edit: wrong windy city paper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
