Alexander Stark Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Sorry but I cant seem to find anywhere online whether or not the actor who played the Mountain in season 2 will be back in season 3.Does anybody know which Gregor we will see because i really liked the guy in season 1 more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StannisEndGame Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 I believe Ian Whyte, the guy from season 2, will reprise role. Read it on the wiki page :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prince of the North Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Well, just wishful thinking on my part (he's not British for one thing) but I think this guy could fill the armour if Conan Stevens won't be back :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blutrabe Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Me too. But we don't even know if Gregor will be in S3, do we? He's only needed for one scene in S4 anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice&Fire reader Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Personally, I think replacing Conan Stevens with Ian White is the dumbest movie I have seen made in television since starting a reality show based on honney boo-blob.The person or people responsible for that decision need to have their decision making privileges revoked.Ian White misses the mark of what Gregor Clegane by huge margins. He even looks terrible in the show, he looks too nancy and weak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And of course he would choose a major epic movie trilogy over a tv show where he has 3 lines a season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyways we all agree that Connor Stevens was a better Mountain but as stated above, it wasn't the showrunners fault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wandering Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 I'm sure I read comments from Conan Stevens around the time, saying he was never asked back?Either way, could they not have put Ian White in some sort of body suit so at least he didn't look like a stiff breeze would blow him over?

Crazeejezza Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Clive Mantle, who plays Greatjon Umber, wasn't asked back for season 3 after he couldnt work on the second. I don't think that happened with Conan. Could be wrong though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick_Scryer Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Conan Stevens himself said on his own website said he wasn't asked back:I was looking forward to being able to reprise the role for season 02, but it seems like HBO decided to go in a different direction for the 2nd season and I will not be playing Ser Gregor this time around which is a pityhttp://www.conanstev...-season-02.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dove Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Ian Whyte has a great voice for the role, just imagine him bellowing out Gregor's extremely horrible response to Oberyn as he's doing his thing in the trial. The biggest problem is that he lacks that physicality and presence that Stevens had. They could bulk him up a bit with better armor than he had in S2, but he's just not as good. It's a shame.

D_Richard Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 They could bulk him up a bit with better armor than he had in S2, but he's just not as good. It's a shame.Not to mention in S2 Whyte was dressed as a typical Lannister guard as opposed to a knight of House Clegane. Stevens' scene in S1 had him in some pretty cool looking armor. Not so much for Whyte in S2. That could've made a huge difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why didn't they put him in a proper armor? That huge shoulder guards would have made a big different on his appearance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashas Globetrotter Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Ser Conan also says "Of course, if I were asked to appear in season 03 I would be very excited to do so."http://www.conanstev...<br /><br />Please ask him!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zizou Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Yeah, Conan needs to come back. He is most definitely a beast in man-form!If he doesn't come back though, I would look towards strongmen or professional athletes as they are the only ones with the physique required. Like this guy, icelandic strongman 207cm tall: http://www.bigdonsboys.com/strength/pages_5_6/images/06_09_hafthor_julius_bjornsson_010.jpgI know he probably sucks as an actor, but where are you gonna find accomplished actors of that size anyhow?

StannisandDaeny Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 People hardly noticed the Mountain was even in there in Season 2... Hope they bring Conan back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
