Gregor's Nancy Boy Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 If they could get someone who looks like this to play Areo, I'd be ecstatic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I know I know Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 If they could get someone who looks like this to play Areo, I'd be ecstatic.Weird coincidence, that fanart pretty much looks like the Ron Perlman picture I just posted, even the choice of facial expression. Did you look at the pic I linked to before I changed it, or was that by chance?edit: this one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urho the Unwashed Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 Manu BennettWhen I read any chapter involving Areo I think about the Spartacus star Manu Bennett. Just make him grow a beard and voilá. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freesword Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 I agree Manu Bennett would be good, as would Ron Perlman. I also think Hotah will be more important in the coming books so I hope he is not cut. I mean come on, who doesn't like an ax toting badass!

The Prince of Newcastle Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 He has to be cut. There is no need for him on tv as they can just film Arianne and Doran talking. They don't need to give the camera a name as in the book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deadwood Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 or Chris Judd "Teal'c" from Sg1 Teal'c sounds good. I could see Chris Judge as Hoteh. Or Idris Elba. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayuk83 Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 They will cast an imposing black actor for this part. It is known. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadwood Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 Yeah. Might be a little bit too small for Idris. But what has Judge been in recently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hangover of the Morning Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 Any beefy dude with an axe would do. He doesn't even have to be able to act. He's pretty much a piece of furniture in the books so no reason for him to be anything else on the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damp Hair - The Prophet Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 LOL! Hotah is totally a piece of furniture, but an attentive one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadwood Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Hoteh is quite important, but not likely to be a big part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Lime Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Assuming the casting news is legit and they are looking for a black actor, I'd like to renew my support for Christopher Judge: http://www.imdb.com/media/rm2624305920/nm0431895?ref_=nm_phs_md_2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WingZero Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Assuming the casting news is legit and they are looking for a black actor, I'd like to renew my support for Christopher Judge: http://www.imdb.com/media/rm2624305920/nm0431895?ref_=nm_phs_md_2 A Summer Islander who grew up in the Free Cities, Im fine with that back story, and if they maintain his old age and gray hair like this http://s3-ec.buzzfed.com/static/enhanced/web03/2012/9/18/14/enhanced-buzz-10892-1347994487-6.jpg, that would be for the better and in line with the books I hope though just because they put in a token Black actor, that it gives them freedom to whitewash all other characters.

Wyman Manderly's Meat Pies Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 If they could get someone who looks like this to play Areo, I'd be ecstatic. Phillip Seymour Hoffman would've owned it. They'd of course have to give him more to do than watch and kill Arys though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Lime Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 It's legit. I like Peter Mensah or Chris Judge. What has Chris done recently? He still biggish? He's been in a few Syfy movies, and he was basically a glorified extra in The Dark Knight Rises. It's a shame, considering he's a really good actor, but he only seems to get picked for one type of role. Luckily that role fits Areo very well. I don't think he'd be difficult to get at all.

Green Hand of Gardener Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 Throwing another name, John Douglas Thompson. Peter Mensah would be my first choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
