Winter is Coming!
I'm geeking out over here because of the Game of Thrones casting news. First, an amusing headline: "Sean Bean to star in HBO's 'Thrones'". The part he'll be playing? Eddard Stark. So, starring, I suppose...
Others cast include Peter Dinklage as Tyrion, Mark Addy as Robert Baratheon, and Harry Lloyd (greatx3-grandson of Charles Dickens) as Viserys Targaryen. Newcomer Kit Harrington has been cast as Jon Snow, but there's no info on him or whether he's up to the part.
They still have to cast some rather important roles: Catelyn Stark, Arya Stark (one of my favorites), and, of course Cersei and Jaime Lannister. Shooting of the pilot episode starts in October.
I suppose I should warn that the comments to this post may contain spoilers for the series.
