Keirut Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 How do you think HBO will change Theon's appereance after his "stay" at the Dreafort ? Will they use a heavy make-up or what? I'm really curioous about that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~khaleesi~ Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 I think they'll make alfie allen lose weight, stringy hair, maybe with a little white, and of course, missing teeth, fingers, and toes!! Definitley some darker makeup under the eyes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Flashheart Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 I assume we will get to witness a bit of the transformation and I assume makeup can do enough to create the right Reek. I am more interested in Alfie Allen's ability to pull Reek off as I feel he has done a great job with Theon I have high hopes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~khaleesi~ Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 High hopes as well. I think Allen will be amazing. Can't wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JP Dayne Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 The way second season has gone, and how they chopped off customization / details (colors, treats, etc), i'm almost positive TV Theon won't change that much. Maybe put on a fake blind eye (white lenses), you know, something small. Maybe make him limp?Alfie is kind of a big actor, and Theon's role will extend till season 7. They won't decharacterize him with much make up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shitmouth the Wise Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 If Tyrion's nose/scar in S2 E10 is any indication, it won't be as radical as the book. I don't think they'll bother with the missing fingers or teeth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think they'll bother with the missing fingers or teeth.They may. Creating the illusion of someone having missing teeth and even fingers is incredibly easy compared to doing the same with Tyrion's nose. It wouldn't actually be that difficult at all, so I'm gonna' assume that he'll be quite worse for the wear after leaving the Dreadfort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll probably use CGI for some scenes to show that Theon lost some fingers and toes, but most of the time when he's showing only his face, makeup is all they need.

GoodGuyA Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 I don't think they'll bother with the missing fingers or teeth. I think fingers they'll go with, if they deem it necessary. They did it for Davos and Qhorin, so if they're really looking to hammer home than they will go with it as his "main" injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great attention to detail from HBO. The only close-up scene in season two where you can't miss it was Davos placing some toy ships on a map.

teemo Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 I think they'll definitely make him look terribly ill and frightening...it's kind of a big part of his transformation. People barely even recognize him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think they'll bother with the missing fingers or teeth.The messed up teeth can be done with false teeth that go over the actor's real teeth. Missing fingers seem easier to do with CGI than a missing nose, and can be covered up with gloves most of the time.Theon's mutilations are more important, character-wise than Tyrion's. Tyrion was already no looker. Getting uglier increased his self-pity but didn't really change how people treated him. Theon goes from being the picture of health to a wreck, which completely changes the entire concept of his character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghost of Harrenhall Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 it would be better if they went all in. Make it so that we can not tell that it is Theon. Use another actor for back and body shots and put more makeup on Alife then the girls I when to high school with. then half way threw the season, full face shot. my name is reek it rhymes with freak. people who have not read the books will freak out.

King Tommen Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 I think the point of actually having Theon be in this season (and next) is to demonstrate his descent into what you see at the start of ADwD. I don't think it's realistic at all to have him be a complete psychological shell of himself as soon as he becomes imprisoned. This is a great opportunity for Alfie Allen to really demonstrate his acting chops by showing the gradual wearing down of his psyche and eventual transformation into someone who doesn't even acknowledge his own identity by the time we hit Season 5.I think his appearance will be very similar to what we saw in S2 at least for a while. He'll also be defiant, entitled and proud for a while until later on when it starts to dawn on him that things aren't going to get any better for him.
