Stormbringer Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 Game of Thrones casts Ian McShane in season 6 mystery role http://www.ew.com/article/2015/08/01/game-thrones-ian-mcshane?hootPostID=06d97f6da4737e9bd7ed7781ab58004d Huge Game of Thrones news: Ian McShane is coming to Westeros! The Emmy-winning British actor is joining Thrones season 6, EW has learned exclusively. The move returns the formerDeadwood star to HBO for a role on the international fantasy sensation.The show’s tight-lipped production will not reveal any details about McShane’s character, who’s coming on board for the most mysterious season yet. Thrones is preparing to dive headlong into narrative territory not yet revealed in author George R.R. Martin’s novels (and despite that opening sentence, McShane’s character could theoretically appear in Westeros or Essos or somewhere in between).We can tell you, however, that sources say McShane has a relatively small amount of screen-time during the season, yet his character is of key importance.McShane launched to American TV stardom by playing a mesmerizingly homicidal frontier kingpin Al Swearengen onDeadwood, then had roles in films Kung Fu Panda, Sexy Beast,Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, John Wick and many others. His most recent regular TV gig was an arc on Showtime’s Ray Donovan. While Thrones has a reputation for making stars of its enormous ensemble cast more than casting already widely known performers, McShane is easily one of the most recognizable actors to ever sign on with the series. Plus, fans of his work—especially on the artfully written Deadwood—can easily imagine the actor fitting in with Thrones’ lawless world and chewing on the show’s Emmy-nominated dialogue. Thrones has started production on season 6 and is expected to return for 10 episodes next spring. Earlier this week, HBO’s programming president Michael Lombardo revealed that the network plans at least eight seasons of the show, a bump from the oft-reported seven season plan. My bet is Euron Greyjoy. Edit: Not Euron Greyjoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormbringer Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 My best recommendation is to read the books. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormbringer Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 ^ Oh that has to be the best scene in all the show so far! (the Daenerys scene). (Btw, George R.R. Martin, FINISH THE DAMN BOOK PLEASE!!!!! ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't suggest that idea What's worse is that there are still TWO books to be published. A Dream of Spring to appear in some 20 years.

Cult Icon Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 I've watched some of your scenes, and wow, they are intense lol. I like ned's final moments (IIRC wasn't he in Lord of the Rings?) So the best scenes revolve around game changing deaths? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormbringer Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 So I guess I'll skip season 6... http://grrm.livejournal.com/465247.html The Winds of Winter is not ready yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clauds Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 I'm throwing my two cents in the "best scene" discussion. It's Tyrion's trial, period, nothing else to say. He should have gotten a special Oscar or something for it, I saw that and I was shocked, it's truly one of the best acting scenes I have seen ever, and trust me I watch a lot of movies/tv.
