Anyone else look at some of the actors in this and think they'd be great in something else?

For me, I'm thinking Maisie Williams who plays Arya could make a great Vin if they ever film Mistborn. If they put it into pre-production now, she'd be the right age by the time it started shooting!

Even without seeing an episode for season 2 yet, I wanted Mark Strong or Liam Cunningham for Stannis.

Revolution9 · 20-02-2012, 17:35

When I heard Liam Cunnigham was cast I just presumed he would be Stannis.

I wanted Mark Strong for Stannis as well...

I'm unsure if he's done it before, but I think Sean Bean would be fairly decent as some kind of a sword wielding badass.

I dunno He's done Swords now, maybe something with Muskets, they could set it during the Napoleonic wars, that'd satisfy the Swordy people too

Maybe, just maybe Spoiler: let him live through an entire series/film as well

Cunningham is perfectly cast as Davos imo.

Alan Rickman as Stannis.

Brendan Gleeson as Varys.

A young Brian Blessed as Robert.

would totally agree with the underlined

Tzar Chasm · 26-02-2012, 01:46

couldnt see Rickman as stanis, Stanis is a dour charmless and devoid of any real charisma IMO he's not an exciting or spirited character he's all about his sense of entitlement to the throne and some bizzare notion of duty and honour

Rickman has played too many interesting characters for that not to be on yer mind watching

Salma Hayek as the red witch. ;-)

Dunno, the red queen I see the trailers is fairly close to what I had imagined

Have they cast the sandsnakes yet????

PhlegmyMoses · 26-02-2012, 15:59

Robert Carlyle as Roose Bolton would have been good.

Sleepy · 26-02-2012, 20:45

A young Alan Rickman would have made a great Littlefinger.

At his current age, he'd make a great Mance Rayder.
