    Does anybody have a idea of who could play Strong Belwas?

    I always pictured him as similar to some of the Samoan guys I met in the Army, really big and round and all bombastic. My brother mentioned he thought Micheal Clark Duncan would have been good but sadly he died last year. I kind of pictured Belwas as being a little younger than that anyway...

    no way. I actually pictured Strong Belwas as... that guy who played Mord, only more muscular.

    Well, just so they show him killing the champion of Merreen and pooping on him it will be hard for me to be too disappointed.

    I always pictured him as a stronger, buffer, manlier Varys. Which would probably be a bit racist if being a Eunuch counted as a race.

    Many thanks to the good folks down at the Graphics Workshop for the sig.

    Yeah but in that preview video when they are sending Hoster down the river, he has short hair and no beard. That was him, right?

    Who else could it be?
    Although the way the Blackfish looks so far, if Edmure had a beard/long hair as well the Tully's could have looked the most ragged family in Westeros.

    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 
    Both thier characters were either dead or dying so I really don't see how they could have done a season 3 with these two actors anyway.


    Kinda dissapointed Purefoy feels that way since he and McKidd would have been a good choice for some of the uncasted characters.

    His Game of Thrones hate seems kinda illogical.

    I was just checking haha, because it looks nothing like him in that other picture.
    And I know the Blackfish was more ragged than Rickard Karstark :O

    It is such a quiet thing, to fall. But far more terrible is to admit it.

    It's on the Facebook group as well, the Blackfish looks a lot more Blackfishy in this photo.

    Is it me, or is the Red Priest not very red? I also imagined him as balder and rounder.
    Always keep your foes confused. If they are never certain who you are or what you want, they cannot know what you are like to do next. Sometimes the best way to baffle them is to make moves that have no purpose, or even seem to work against you - Littlefinger

    In the book, at the point where Arya finds him, isn't he completely changed? Like very thin and ragged, I don't think he finds the elixir of hair growth, but I do remember him losing weight.
    He isn't very red though.
