Game of Thrones: Two Warriors Cast for Season 3

Winteriscoming.net is reporting on some cool new Game of Thrones Season 3 casting; two crucial roles in Daenerys' continuing storyline as she works to make her "own way" to Westeros in order to conquer and claim the Iron Throne.

Newcomer Brit Ed Skrein will play Daario Naharis, a "roguish and deadly sellsword" who is a captain of a mercenary group called the Stormcrows.

Jacob Anderson will play the part of Grey Worm; a captain from an almost completely unbeatable slave soldier unit called the Unsullied. The Unsullied suffer through cruel treatment their whole lives, starting in childhood, in order to grow up as ruthless fighters.

Game of Thrones Casts The King Beyond The Wall

Game of Thrones mega-casting news!  According to EW.com, the role of Mance Rayder, the leader of the intimidatingly massive army of Wildlings that Jon Snow look out upon in the GoT Season 2 finale, has been filled by the Belfast-born Irish actor Ciaran Hinds.

Check Out the New Characters and Cast for Game of Thrones Season 3!

Rayder, though never seen, has been referred to many times on the show as "The King Beyond the Wall"; a former member of the Night's Watch who's somehow managed to unite the brutal Wildling clans for a giant push South...to the Wall. You might know Hinds from HBO's Rome, or from USA's Political Animals, where he's been playing the Bill Clinton-esque ex-President, Bud Hammond.

Torchwood Star John Barrowman Joins Arrow in Recurring Role

An intriguing bit of casting was revealed today by EW.com for The CW’s new series, Arrow: John Barrowman, best known as Doctor Who and Torchwood’s Captain Jack Harkness, will be joining the new DC Comics-based series in a recurring role.

EW says that producers aren’t giving much away about Barrowman’s character, except that he is a “well-dressed man” who is “as mysterious as he is wealthy … he is an acquaintance of the Queen family and a prominent figure in Starling City.”

Of course, as EW notes, that immediately makes one suspect Barrowman is playing a character from the Green Arrow comics. But who could it be?

Arrow premieres October 10th on The CW.
