Aegnor Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 A note on Ramsay Bolton... note that this is a spoiler on the upcoming episode (The Old Gods and the New).The rumor/report on WIC is that in the upcoming episode Roose mentions that he is sending his bastard son to rescue Winterfell.That seems to indicate that Ramsey exists in the HBO Westeros universe. I think the most likely scenario is that Ramsay is a glorified extra in season 2 (in full armor), and then is cast for season 3.I can definitely see why they did it this way, but I'm worried about how they are going to pull off the millers children event. I just don't believe it in Theon's character to actually do the deed. Turn aside while Reek does it? Yes. But to actually do it himself I don't think so.Hmmm...I just thought of something. Black Lorren was cast and that the guy who talked about taking Theon's ship was almost assuredly him. He could be the person to suggest/carry-out the act. It is a key characterization event for Ramsay, and I hate that it is going to be shifted to someone else, but I think this might work plot-wise.

Tomer Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Cutting the Reeds I can deal with, but Ramsay is too crucial to the story and is an awesome villian with an awesome story.Plus, Cillian Murphy would be absoloutley amazing as him!http://www.wildsound.ca/images/dark_knight_cillian_murphy.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crystal Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 How about Joseph Morgan as Ramsay Bolton? I'd love to see him in the role!!!! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spork Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Since the ep has aired I'm going to take this out of spoiler quotes:The rumor/report on WIC is that in the upcoming episode Roose mentions that he is sending his bastard son to rescue Winterfell.This rumor proved to be true, and I think it further reinforces both that the sack will be this season (E10?), and that Ramsey will probably be an extra this season, similar to how they did Jaqen in S1. How about Joseph Morgan as Ramsay Bolton? I'd love to see him in the role!!!! :)Also, WiC has a post on this from yesterday, speculating on this casting. They also list a source claiming HBO is looking to cast Ramsay for S3. Would like to know what that is based on... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I hate Dorn Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 First, I almost jumped out of my chair with sheer joy when Bolton said that. I've been trying to figure out how in the world they could pull off leaving Ramsay out completely and am very relieved that it's not going to be an issueSecond, I don't think we see him at all until next seasonThird, as far as wishful casting goes. I've heard some rather optimistic big names like Cylian Murphy, Paul Dano, Paul Bettany and then a bunch of other less popular actors names, who I admit to not be familar with. I actually think the PERFECT guy for this, and he may be available, because he was just killed off on another big HBO series, the perfect guy in my mind.....Michael PittPale; kind of goth looking; can be creepy and unnerving as well as intense and imposing, has a presence about him; is a damn good actor. I would LOVE IT if they grabbed him for this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7V3N Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 I have said this many times but nobody seems to notice: Meera and Jojen should not yet be ruled out. They can easily show up at Winterfell after Ramsay and his men burn it. After Meera and Jojen unbury Bran & co from the crypts (which Hodor has to do in the books), Jojen can say that the Three-Eyed-Crow led him to them. And BAM! Meera and Jojen arrive right as their roles become most pivotal in the books.EDIT: Looks like the crypts thing was wiped out. I wonder how they'll do it. I expect at least one Reed child to make it in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrja Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 I agree that there is still a chance for the Reeds to show up, but not in this current season (obviously). I keep waiting with baited breath to hear if they have been cast......sigh. I will be deeply disappointed if they do not play a part. I know some people think they are easily replaced, but I think something of the 'heart' of the books would be cut out with them. Sounds cheesy, but there you go.Does anyone know if Howland Reed was even mentioned in Season One?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HouseLark Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Cillian Murphy is a bit of a star. He works regularly in big feature films so in terms of both time and money I can't see him joining the cast. Expect another actor very familiar to UK TV viewers but unheard of in the US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HouseLark Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Does anyone know if Howland Reed was even mentioned in Season One??Ned mentioned him in passing when talking about Ser Arthur Dayne. He mentioned how Dayne would have killed him (Ned) if it wasn't for Howland Reed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminated Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 I'd like to see Jonathan Rhys Meyers as Ramsay. He looks hard, authoritative, has crazy eyes and would physically fit as Roose's son. Like he did Henry VIII, just harder and meaner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unRobert Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Someone posted this in another thread. Notice the scene with men on horses coming in and a startled Theon in Winterfell? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spork Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 That's probably when Asha arrives. I didn't think he looked that startled, really. If it was an attack he'd be way more freaked out/active, instead of just standing there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Monkey Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 http://winteriscoming.net/2012/05/casting-season-three-ramsay-snow/A recent casting breakdown for season three indicated that the production is looking for a “male 20-30, but weird and extreme looking.” Sounds like Ramsay to me!

I hate Dorn Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 How about Andrew Scott?He played Jim Moriarty on the BBC series Sherlock. He certainly has the look and played sadistic and insane well enough in that rollhttp://www.officiall...4_2_preview.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
