Ser Areo Mace Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 My dream casting for Ron Pearlman is Areoh Hotah or Randyll Tarly (both roles that might be too small for him)I don't think Ron is a good choice for Aero. personality and physical present are off. Tarly maybe. I see him as being one of the northern men if anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HenrikLannister Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 His personality is off? You realize he's an actor, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chalkius Stark Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 If they could get Idris Elba I'd be incredibly happy. I see his role as Heimdall in Thor as quite similar, he was every bit the dutiful but intimidating presence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fat Mac Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 I'm not sure if Areo is black. Then again, I'm pretty sure Salladhor Saan is not black, but they made him so for the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Areo Mace Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 His personality is off? You realize he's an actor, right?Yes i know he's an actor, but he is best at playing characters that are loud, strong willed, violent, brute for like of a better term with an imposing personality much like an Umber. Where, Aero isn't that type of guy. Ray Stevenson has play similar characters to Ron, but has also has played the silent intimidator and has play them very well. His character Dagonet in King Arthur is very similar to how I see Aero and He played that part very well for the short amount of scene time he got.

King Victarion Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Given the relatively small role, I doubt Elba or Stevenson would take on the role. For whatever reason, I always envisioned the character to have the hulking Pacific Islander rugby player look and build like Henry Tuilagi of Samoa.

King Doug Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 No I'm not sure he Areo is black either. But I always picture him as a Pacific island race for some reason. And The Rock isn't full black, he could pass for Pacific islandish. This role would be perfect for him. Areo doesn't talk much so we wouldn't have to watch the Rock attempt to be an actor, he'd just have to kick some ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iron Captain Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 The Rock isn't that bad of an actor. Honestly the role is too small for him as well.Plus I just don't picture him as old enough for Areo. I always kind of pictured Areo as Proximo from Gladiator, just a little taller and maybe 10 years younger. I'm having trouble thinking of an actor that looks like that though.

Right, and Robin Williams can only do comedic roles. *dramatic eye rolling* Your argument is moot, the least you can do is admit that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron strongest acting trait would be lose in using he for the strong silent type in terms of this character. He is much better suited for a Umber or an Ironman in my opinion.

nightwisp Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 The big black guy who played in Cold Case always struck me as a convincing Areo. I think Areo was not all that young in the books? But, he was still strong and powerful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHedgeWizard Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 I don't think Areo Hotah will even make it into the series. Seems like a character that can be easily cut out or am i missing something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knepah Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 I'd probably cast Alexander Morton in this role. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0607916/http://www.eluveitie.ch/wp_live/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/alexander%20morton.jpgThis is mainly because of the fan art which has been published of him kind of represents how I imagine he should look. http://awoiaf.westeros.org/images/thumb/2/2d/Areo_Hotah_by_henning.jpg/300px-Areo_Hotah_by_henning.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like a character that can be easily cut out or am i missing something?Agree with that but if he is cast then I hope they can get Peter Mensah. Whenever I picture Areo that's who I see.
