Maybe. Either way, this seems like showrunner invention, as it doesn't really fit Manderly and we've met Greatjon already. But, I do like the idea that someone in the north, a proper man of the north, will rise up and start to undermine the Boltons. They just can't leave that to Littlefinger (can they?).

Ahhh, only 8 more months...

Given the parameters we've been given about McShane's role, I'm guessing this role (although i don't know who this character is book-wise):

Lord Of Noble Northern House

This may be the most crucial casting pick of all. The role is described as a “savage warrior [that] rules a distinguished house in the very far north, and the role is said to be an impactful one.” He may only be in two episodes, but it may a couple of the most important we’ve seen so far.

Hmm, for all we know that could be a Mormont they created for the show. It might one of those clan leaders that followed Stannis. I don't remember their names and they weren't all that important individually but in the books they're still following him to Winterfell. Maybe it's a Glover and somehow they're weaving Deepwood Motte into the show.

That's the thing: the show has gotten so far away from the books we literally have no idea who the hell this character could be.

It can't be Manderly unless they're planning on reinventing him.

Sam must have got the fat gene from the mailman.

lets assume they would have recognized Ian at least walking around the set between shoots. who the fuck else has a small but important role? maybe Oswell Whent or Gerold Hightower from the ToJ scene?

Would love to see Ser Arthur Dayne with Dawn, the Sword of the Morning.

Sounds like a made-up new character but I hope not.

Yes. I want to see the Boltons die screaming.

There's also the killing characters that are alive in the books thing... As much as we've complained about S5 Dorne, they've messed up the north pretty badly, too.

I'd love to know how that meeting between Martin and D&D went down when Martin told them they were on their own. And then, I'd like to know what D&D said among themselves right after. Epic.

Imagine Tolkien was like aaaand youre on your own aaaaand people expect you to hold to the same high standard of my creativity and writing. Its just not possible. This is Martin's story not theirs so of course its not going to be as good.

it just makes me think Stannis may lose the battle for winterfell, and Barristan will die at the battle for slavers bay (in the books)

i still think stannis would make a good 1,000th commander of the nights watch. i just dont want them to waste ian mcshane. i could see Euron calling people cocksuckers like Al would. wasted opportunity imo.

and Sidelle, you should absolutely expect to see Dayne with Dawn this season. i just wonder if they will cast Sean Bean back as Ned Stark [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
