I'm good with all except Joffrey. No thug in him. More weasel, likes to torture helpless women. Don't know how to depict that. Jack Gleeson is doing an exceptional acting job.

Neil Marshall returning to direct Season 4 finale

The story, then! Following his pivotal "Blackwater" in Season 2, director Neil Marshall is returning to Game Of Thrones. Our source close to the production - who we shall name "Ned" in honour of the dear departed Sean Bean (and the '90s indie band) - tells us that Marshall has been asked back for another enormous chunk of ice and fire

, in this case the violent finale to Season 4. The episode, Ned tells us, takes place "at The Wall, with Mance Rayder".

Readers who've got as far as A Storm Of Swords will recognise this as The Battle Of Castle Black, where King-Beyond-The-Wall Mance Rayder leads his force of Wildlings, Thenns and mammoth-mounted Giants against the forces of the Night's Watch and King Stannis Baratheon. The scrap lasts several days, and is the event that leads to Jon Snow becoming leader of the Watch.

In the book, former blacksmith Donal Noye plays a significant role in these events, but as he apparently remains uncast in the series, expect some tweaks to the way the carnage unfolds onscreen. Although with or without Noye, we could probably have assumed as much anyway.

Marshall was airlifted in at extremely short notice to direct Blackwater, but Ned tells us that the director has a much longer lead-in on this occasion, already moving backwards and forwards between London and Northern Ireland to prep the episode, which shoots later in the year. Game Of Thrones' fourth season will premiere on HBO in the first half of 2014.

On his blog, author George R.R. Martin weighed in on the casting of Pedro Pascal as the Red Viper:

I wasn't present for Pedro Pascal's audition, but I understand that he really killed it with his reading. And since his casting was announced, the producer of another TV show on which he appeared recently has written me to say how terrific Pascal is, and to congratulate us on the casting. So I suspect that he will turn out to be a wonderful Red Viper.

I do know that David and Dan and HBO do favor having a racially and ethnically diverse cast on the series. It is true that we've lost several black characters who appear in the novels (Chataya and Alayaya, Jalabhar Xho, Strong Belwas), but to balance that, characters like Salladhor Saan and Xaro Xhoan Daxos, both white in the books, have been played by black actors. Missandei as well, though in the books the Naathi are golden-skinned, not white.

As for the Dornishmen, well, though by and large I reject one to one analogies, I've always pictured the "salty Dornish" as being more Mediterranean than African in appearance; Greek, Spanish, Italian, Portugese, etc. Dark hair and eyes, olive skin. Pedro Pascal is Chilean. (Check out Amok's version of the Red Viper, that's how I saw him. Or Magali Villenueve's beautiful and sexy portrait of Princess Arianne).

When and if the show introduces Prince Oberyn's daughters, the Sand Snakes, I expect we will see the same diversity as in the books, ranging from Tyene (blond and blue-eyed) to Sarella (light brown skin, as her mother was a Summer Islander). And I expect that the crew of the CINNAMON WIND will all be cast with black actors... assuming, of course, that Sam's voyage remains in the story.

The Iron Throne as described in the novels, officially endorsed by GRRM on his blog as the most accurate artistic representation thus far. By artist Mark Simonetti.

[LaP]

any primetime tv show is either played out over 5 nights or 5/6 episodes a series...we suck for series length

 

Yeah but 22 or 23 sodes like Supernatural is too much imo.

 

I think around 16 would be the best (4 months total).

'Game of Thrones' casts 'Sherlock' actor in season 4

 

 

Mark Gatiss will appear in the fourth season of HBO?s Thrones. The British writer-producer-actor has written Doctor Who novels and episodes of the BBC cult classic, as well as acted on the long-running series (since 2007, he?s credited to three different roles on IMDB). In addition, Gatiss is the co-creator and co-star of another Brit-based favorite, Sherlock, where he plays Holmes? dryly mysterious brother Mycroft. Now he?s booked on HBO?s fantasy hit next year.

 

On Thrones he will play ?

 

Well, that?s something we cannot reveal. The Thrones team is keeping Gatiss? role quiet. Maybe showrunners David Benioff and Dan Weiss will say more at their Comic-Con panel on Friday? Also, Sherlock is making its first-ever SDCC panel appearance on Thursday (I?m moderating) so maybe Gatiss will spill something then.

Rome alum Indira Varma will play Ellaria Sand in the HBO drama?s upcoming fourth season, EW.com reports.

The character is the sexually frisky lady friend of Oberyn Martell (aka the Red Viper), a part the show recently filled with Graceland?s Pedro Pascal. The pair have four daughters together who ? along with some of Martell?s other illegitimate offspring ? are collectively known as the Sand Snakes.

After teasing fans with clues about the latest addition to the cast of HBO's Game of Thrones, George R.R. Martin has now confirmed that Roger Ashton-Griffiths has been cast as 'Mace Tyrell'. He is the Lord of Highgarden, head of House Tyrell and father to Loras and Margaery (who is of course married to Joffrey). His mother - Olenna Tyrell - views him as a bit of a fool, but he still plays a big role in what happens at King's Landing. The author confirmed this news via his blog, saying: "He's a father, he's a son. He's been a bishop, a cardinal, a prior, a friar, a vicar, a knight, a lord, a mayor, a director. There's one born every minute, but by any other name he'd smell as sweet. Yes, it's the fine British character actor Roger Ashton-Griffiths, who has been cast in the role of Mace Tyrell, son to the Queen of Thorns, and father of Loras and Margaery." Griffiths has previously appeared in Gangs of New York, Torchwood and The Tudors.

According to our sources, the role of Prince Tommen Baratheon has been recast for season 4 and will now be played by Dean-Charles Chapman. Chapman starred in The Revolting World of Stanley Brown, appears in the upcoming film Before I Go To Sleep, and was seen most recently on The White Queen, playing Richard Grey. The choice of Chapman for Tommen may be surprising to some as he previously appeared on GoT playing Martyn Lannister, one of the imprisoned squires killed by the Karstarks in season 3.

The Maltese-born actor Joseph Gatt has been added to the cast of the hugely popular HBO television series Game of Thrones - the first season of which was partly filmed in Malta in 2010.

According to Gatt's agency (as well as his Internet Movie Database listing), the actor will reportedly take on the role of Styr, Magnar of Thenn, in the fourth season of the series, set to premiere during the first half of 2014.

In A Song of Ice and Fire - the book series by George RR Martin on which Game of Thrones is based - Styr is a 'wildling' war chief who leads an attack on Castle Black, an outpost populated by some of the show's key protagonists.
