Even with its many deaths, Game of Thrones still has a ton of characters with Emilia Clarke (Daenerys), Lena Headey (Cersei), Nikolaj Coster-Waldau (Jaime), Peter Dinklage (Tyrion), Sophie Turner (Sansa), Maisie Williams (Arya), Isaac Hempstead-Wright (Bran), Kit Harington (Jon Snow), Aidan Gillen (Littlefinger), Alfie Allen (Theon), John Bradley (Sam), Stephen Dillane (Stannis), Carice van Houten (Melisandre), Liam Cunningham (Davos), Gwendoline Christie (Brienne), Iwan Rheon (Ramsay), Daniel Portman (Pod), Natalie Dormer (Margaery), Iain Glen (Jorah), Nathalie Emmanuel (Missandei), Jerome Flynn (Bronn), Kristofer Hivju (Tormund), Hannah Murray (Gilly), Ian McElhinney (Barristan), Jacob Anderson (Grey Worm), Michiel Huisman (Daario) and Joel Fry (Hizdahr zo Loraq), Conleth Hill (Varys), Finn Jones (Loras), Diana Rigg (Olenna), Roger Ashton-Griffiths (Mace), Gemma Whelan (Yara), Ellie Kendrick (Meera) and Kristian Nairn (Hodor) are all set to return. Not to mention Dean-Charles Chapman (Tommen), Julian Glover (Pycelle), Clive Russell (Blackfish), Tobias Menzies (Edmure), Michael McElhatton (Roose), Indira Varma (Ellaria Sand), Anton Lesser (Qyburn), Charlotte Hope (Myranda), Patrick Malahide (Balon), Ben Crompton (Edd), Ciarán Hinds (Mance), Peter Vaughan (Aemon), Owen Teale (Thorne), Dominic Carter (Slynt), Tara Fitzgerald (Selyse), Kerry Ingram (Shireen), Mark Gatiss (Tycho Nestoris), Lucian Msamati (Salladhor Saan), Octavia Alexandru (Leaf), Natalia Tena (Osha), Art Parkinson (Rickon), Aimee Richardson (Myrcella), Lino Facioli (Robin), Richard Dormer (Beric), Paul Kaye (Thoros) and Philip McGinley (Anguy). Seven hells! Thats a lot of cast members left for George R.R. Martin to kill and we havent even gotten to the additions for Game of Thrones fifth season. No one has been officially cast yet but a some role breakdowns have leaked online and, thanks to winteriscoming.net, we know at least some of the characters David Benioff and Dan Weiss are looking to add for the fifth season. And with Dorne becoming a new location on the fantasy series, it probably shouldnt come as much of a surprise that most of the new characters have the last name Martell or Sand. The first breakdown shows that Game of Thrones is searching for the right actors to play Oberyns older brother, Prince Doran, as well as the three eldest of his eight bastard daughters (the Sand Snakes), Obara, Tyene and Nymeria. They are a lot like their father, his brother, not so much. Doran is ten years older and confined to a wheelchair but cunning. His son Trystane, Princess Myrcellas dashing fiancé, is also being added as well as the family bodyguard, Areo Hotah. Other characters included in the first casting call are The High Sparrow, a pious religious leader who will be appearing in several episodes, Septa Unella, an imposing and unrelenting presence in a major characters life, Bronns new wife, Lady Lollys Stokeworth, a fortune-teller named Maggy the Frog (more on her in a moment), Yezzan, a Meereenese slave owner and The Waif, a strange child that Arya encounters in Braavos. It will be nice when these roles are actually cast so we can start putting faces to all these names. The second role breakdown only includes three characters, but one hints at a possible game-changing event for Game of Thrones. I dont think its much of a spoiler but heres a warning just in case. First off, the fantasy is looking to add another warg with wildling skinchanger Varamyr Sixskins on the casting call. Next is a character not in the books, a 12 year old blonde girl named Imogen which many believe is (THAT SPOILER) really a place-holder for young Cersei. Yes, Game of Thrones may be having a flashback in Season 5. Speculation first arose with the call for Maggy the Frog as shes part of a Cersei flashback in the books and Imogen, as well as a 12 year old Brunette Girl, being on the second breakdown only reinforced that theory. Of course, I have another theory on who that Brunette might be but nows not the time for real (END OF) SPOILERS. Game of Thrones
