Game of Thrones season 8 is getting two new characters, including a "dauntless" 8-year-old Northerner

After 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Game of Thrones season 7 left us with only a handful of Lannisters, some Starks, and one (or two…) Targaryens, it’s only right that the final season of Game of Thrones would prop up the cast 𒀰with a few fresh faces. Producers are casting for two child roles now – say hello to the new kids on the b🌟lock.
have managed to get their hands on casting notes for two characters potentially making their debไuts in Game of Thrones season 8 and, as we’ve come to expect from Westeros, these pint-sized players sound intense.
The first of the duo, described as a Northern girl who is a “straight-talking Northern-acce꧂nted girl, someone remarkable for her dauntlessness and integrity”. Remind you of anyone? Sure sounds like a little Lyanna pretender to me…
It&r𓆏squo;s also important to note she hails from a “family of soldiers”. It remains to be seen whether the girl comes from one o♐f Winterfell’s great allies or somewhere else entirely, but she’s going to be a tough nut to crack by the looks of it.
On the flip side of things, the remaining role – plainly titled ‘Boy’ as to not give anyth🏅ing away – is listed as being aged 8-12 ♏, from a poor background, and a boy who has to fight to make his way in the world.
Interestingly, the producers want someone who “completely own[s] the scenes that he appears in.” Whoever the character is, it feels like he’ll have a slightly bigger part to play in🔯 proceedings. A flashback, perhaps? We&rsqu💟o;ve seen nary a snippet of the Cleganes’ upbringing. Now that would be interesting.
