Drowsey Dragon Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Curious to know who other readers imagine her resembaling in RL when reading about her. I don't know why, but I think of Melanie Griffith :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crown Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 I don't really see her as a particular person, just my imaginary Brienne as she's described in the books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blangadanger Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 I actually have a hard time picturing her as ugly as Jaime's POVs describe her, especially considering her valor in battle and her love for Renly. This may seem odd, but I picture her more like Cate Blanchett from Elizabeth with her hair cut really short. She doesn't come off as immediately attractive in that film (even though she is indeed beautiful IRL), but she has a fiery temperament and damn-it-all determination that I like. That being said, I don't think that my imagined version of Brienne is anything like GRRM's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arataniello Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 I think of her as somewhere between Toni Collette in 'Muriel's Wedding' and Calamity Jane in 'Deadwood'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Dermett Corbray Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Lol Calamity Jane. She was so annoying.The actress they've picked for the TV show looks pretty good. I did however imagine her more full of face and bullish in stature. No actress really comes to mind at the moment. She was really more a creation of my imagination...

DivPArADox Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I envisioned Tilda Swinton, but taller and not as thin. I think Tilda's androgynous facial features fit my mental image.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tilda_Swinton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ygrette Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Damn shame she isn't an actress. I've always imagined Brienne more like a tall and very muscular woman when we're talking body shape, not just face. Many people imagine her to be just plain fat, but I cannot imagine a fat woman to rock in battle. She doesn't have to be six packed ripped, but definitely more Xena than Bette Midler. Looking forward to SoS on screen and hope Gwendoline Christie looks at least a little like Martina Strutz under her garments. In armour, Christie looks awesomely Brienne-ish.
