Look again. There's a large chunk missing from his nose...and his hair is NOT red and white. Therefore, he is Rorge...and Jaqen H'gar remains unseen.Ne1butme said:
Season Two Game of Thrones Casting Details Emerge
- Thread starter Greg Tito
- Start date
Which is exactly what I'm doing (and did with Deadwood before in fact). Even if the show gets picked up in Holland my viewing it will not change the exec decisions since they're looking at the US cash anyway. And if it hits tv locally I'll watch it again.Emurlahn said:
Haven't read the books but loving this show. Got pulled into it out of Sean Bean fandom and am now hooked. Carice walking in on the second season is an awesome treat.
The acting performances on this show have been great, hope they manage to maintain (surpass?) this level.
TheAmazingHobo said:Their casting decisions really put me at ease with regards to the second season. Just solid decisions all around. Okay, no one really exciting so far, but that´s fine, I prefer the drama to happen on-screen anyway.
And I think Cunningham works rather well. I always imagined Davos to be the seasoned, ruggedly aged, slightly tired type. But I guess ultimately every reader has his/her own version of the Onion Knight anyway.
Just glad they went with the one I had in my head
I agree with you about Davos' casting with Liam Cunningham. He's brilliant and can do the type of seasoned seafarer that Davos is no bother.
Saw him at his psychotic best in The Guard last night.
I wonder where the hell Greg Tito got his impression of him, I must have a totally different edition of the books to him
He made Davos sound like some lame pastiche of the Dread Pirate Roberts I wanted Jeremy Irons as Stannis, but this guy looks to be a perfect choice! He better start grinding his teeth now for practice!
Really liking the choice as Melisandre, just hope she has the acting chops to pull her off.
I always thought that Melisandre looked more like Calypso from Pirates of the Caribbean. I can't wait for the next season to start, ever since I've finished A Dance with Dragons I've been lacking my A Song of Fire and Ice fix.
Some of you guys are going to get let down as the seasons progress. There are some things they can do and some things they cant when it comes to make up and even casting. I don't want to give away anything but some of the things that happen to Tyrion will obviously not carry over. As for Rorge, I doubt they'd attempt to use make up to.. make up .. for the nose. Scars are one thing but trying to create an illusion of a missing nose throughout production is completely different.
I'm pretty happy with the casting for season 2. I'm more concerned with how well the actors project the characters than anything else. I have solid faith in the casting abilities of the production crew after season 1.
