Westeros Blog: Three More Roles Cast

[Westeros]

According to this tweet by actor Oliver Powell (who has previously auditioned for a role, and has mentioned that Westeros.org was one of his resources when researching the role!), the roles of Syrio Forel and Rast (a recruit to the Night’s Watch) have now been filled.

According to Powell, Syrio is played by Miltos Yerolemou, who has appeared in a number of television productions. Searching the internet, Yerolemou has also had a number of theatrical roles, including the role of Feste in a Royal Shakespeare Company production of Twelfth Night. Yerolemou confirmed his casting to us when contacted via Twitter, and the part can be seen in his Spotlight CV.

We also have a showreel, with select clips from theatrical and television roles starting about 3 minutes in:

We’ve found less on Luke McEwan at this time. We’re speculating here, but the one U.K. actor we’re finding with that name received a good deal of praise in the role of Cymbeline in the eponymous play by Shakespeare, for the National Youth Theatre.

As to the third role? EwaSR has shared via Twitter that an acquaintance of hers has landed a role in Game of Thrones. Not as Joffrey—the role he auditioned for, apparently—but for another Lannister part. At a guess, this will be our Lancel Lannister, but we’re waiting on confirmation.
