Westeros Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Conan Stevens has a terrific update on what he’s been doing, besides putting on more muscle (by his estimation, he’s gained 7kg—about 15 lbs.—since he arrived in Belfast). He identifies the riding trainers, The Devil’s Horsemen (who have an extremely long list of prior credits), and comments that his extra bulk has led to some alterations to his costume. He’s coy about the details of the costume, but his remark that, “Ser Gregor Clegane will be the centurion tank of Westeros,” and, ” the weight is spread over my entire body rather than having all that weight just hanging off my shoulders,” certainly suggests that he’s in a suit of plate armor, just as the character is described in the novels.Other details of note? Just as was reported from the pilot film set, it seems a documentary crew is on hand preparing extras for DVD/Blu-Ray and (Stevens speculates) pre-airing promotion. The crew caught Stevens and Rory McCann, cast as Sandor Clegane, rehearsing their big fight scene. Conan wraps up by noting that since joining in the production, his career has been making great advances, with a number of productions showing interest in his involvement once he gets back to Thailand.Below, you can find a video of The Devil’s Horsemen company performing at a medieval faire:read on >>>Visit the Site!

awesome possum Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 I really like this guy. Too bad he'll soon be associated with what I predict to be one of the more hated/loathed characters in television history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JungianQueen Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 As always, awesome! Ser, I'm equally as concerned. He seems like such a great guy, very intelligent, articulate, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awesome possum Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 He really does post an interesting, enjoyable blog. But yeah, the Mountain That Rides is such a horrible character that it's hard to see such a nice guy (intimidatingly large as he is) in the role. I hope he pulls it off well and his career benefits, because he comes across as a very down-to-earth and cool person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
