thisdyingbreed Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 I don't know WHY but I've always imagined Brian Blessed as the Blackfish. And I echo the above post of Richard Griffiths for Lord Manderly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spence Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 India Eisley would make a great Meera Reed. However, I'd probably prefer an unknown for her and Jojen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheesus Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 I would encourage people to look up Dame Eileen Atkins, when considering who to cast as the Queen of Thorns.... I don't think I've ever seen her before, but she's scarily similar to the image I have in my head of Lady Olenna. Maybe a little taller, slimmer and less wrinkly than I imagined, but no major differences. I just finished re-reading ASoS this morning and, judging from IMDb info, performances in clips and so on, I think she'd be able to pull off the Queen of Thorns role very well. Good choice!

George Snow Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 There is already a couple of posts about the same topic, but there has not been a debate about who should play the Season 3 characters. David Benioff and D.B. Weiss will surely check on this page to see fan suggestions about who should portray upcoming characters, so let us lend a hand to them.This are the confirmed characters of Season 3 for now. I'll put my suggestions first.– Thoros of Myr: A red priest who follows the same religion as Melisandre. BILL NIGHY– Tormund Giantsbane: A Wildling raider. RON PERLMAN/ BRENDAN GLEESON For some reason, I've always pictured Thoros of Myr as being darker skinned. We at least know he is not from Westeros. My pick would be George Harris. He played Kingsley Shacklebolt in Harry Potter. He was also the pirate captain in the first Indiana Jones movie.For Tormund, I'd go with either Jon Rhys-Davies or Robbie Coltrane, depending upon the age the director wants him to be.GH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qwop22 Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Call me crazy, but I would love to see Gary Oldman in Game of Thrones. He is such a great chameleon actor. I think he'd make a great Euron or Blackfish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arkash Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 – Thoros of Myr: A red priest who follows the same religion as Melisandre. BILL NIGHYBill Nighy is, imo, one of the best actors of all times... but he is also damn recognized... I dont think HBO can afford him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
byronic-hero Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 HBO does seem to like to dip into the well of its previous series and movies so its worth thinking seriously about individuals from previous projects. I've listed those whom they've already cast. Those that I've seen suggested . And others who might be worth considering.Iain Glen, Into the StormStephane Dillane, John AdamsRobert Pugh, Into the StormDonald Sumpter, Into the StormPatrick Malahide, Into the Storm, Elizabeth ILena Headey, The Gathering StormJames Purefoy (Mance Rayder, Oberyn Martell, Brynden Tully)Ciaran Hinds (Doran Martell)Rufus Sewell (Mance Rayder, Brynden Tully)Ray Stevenson (Tormund)Kevin McKidd (Edmure Tully)Derek Jacobi (Qyburn)Lindsay Duncan (Olenna Redwyne)Brendon Gleeson (Tormund, Mace Tyrell, Wyman Manderly)Ian McShane (Mance Rayder, Brynden Tully, Doran Martell, Victarion Greyjoy)Ian McNeice (Wyman Manderly, was originally supposed to play Illyrio I believe)Tom WilkinsonVanessa Redgrave (Olenna Redwyne, although maybe a bit tall)Polly WalkerDavid MorseDanny HustonTom HollanderEbon Moss-Bachrach (Ramsay Bolton)David BamberMichael SheenJim Broadbent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Benioff and D.B. Weiss will surely check on this page to see fan suggestions about who should portray upcoming characters, so let us lend a hand to them.This are the confirmed characters of Season 3 for now. I'll put my suggestions first. -Mance Rayder: We’ve heard about him all season. A former member of the Night’s Watch who became the “King Beyond the Wall,” the leader of the Wildlings. Michael Purefoy aka Marc Antony from "Rome"– Daario Naharis: A confident and seductive warrior. Jonathan Rhys Meyers– Jojen Reed; Meera Reed: A teenage brother and sister duo with special insights. no suggestions– Edmure Tully: A brash young member of the Tully family. no suggestions– Ser Brynden Tully (The Blackfish): Catelyn Stark’s uncle. Sean Connery (Why not? He's not doing anything)– Lady Selyse Florent: Stannis Baratheon’s wife. Sarah Jessica Parker – Shireen: Stannis’ daughter. already cast– Olenna Redwyne (The Queen of Thorns): Margaery Tyrell’s sharp-witted grandmother. no suggestions– Beric Dondarrion: A skilled knight who is the leader of the outlaw group Brotherhood Without Banners. no suggestions– Thoros of Myr: A red priest who follows the same religion as Melisandre. Bishop T.D. Jakes . . The Lawwwdddd of Light!!! – Tormund Giantsbane: A Wildling raider. RON PERLMAN or The Big Show Paul Wight (even has the right spelling of his last name).My thoughts :cool4: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've listed those whom they've already cast. Yep also getting other folks from other similar era shows. After watching episodes of, "The Tudors" I was shocked to see how many folks other than the stated Natalie D. are on GOT. Seems like they also grabbed folks from the failed Starz series, "Camelot." I guess toss some folks in from Rome or I just got an idea . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ServantOnIce Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Daario N. = Michael Pitt aka Jimmy Darmody from Boardwalk Empire . . . dude would be perfect he is young, nasty, mean, slick, likable and hateable all in once. He has the bad))) skills and the sexiness . . heck the dude is perfect. Remember the casting doesn't care about looks as many of the characters look nothing like their book counterparts . . http://awoiaf.westeros.org:8080/index.php/File:Daario_Naharis.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carne Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 I'd rather look who GoT's casting director Nina Gold seem to like. HBO doesn't sit and pick actors, she and D&D does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
