Tell you what, Lyanna Stark is in a movie called The Nightingale and it's good if you can ignore the 5x rape
The timing on this, where she makes it sound like it wasn't too long before she got the Stranger Things role, and given her age at the time, and what seasons of Game of Thrones would have been in preproduction at the time....it's hard for me to imagine that this was for anything other than Lyanna Mormont. Crazy. Bella Ramsey did fantastic obviously but if Millie gets this role, perhaps she's not available for Stranger Things. Glad that didn't happen! Can't imagine anyone else as either Lyanna or Eleven now. Obviously lots of little anonymous children in the show so it could have been one of those roles, but doubtful most of them required auditions.
Extremely excited to see more of Westeros/The Known World. The dunk and egg tales are fun and I’m glad we’re gonna meet both Dunk and Aegon V. The other news in there about possibly Robert’s Rebellion and such is super exciting too.
Man I’m just tired of them announcing all these spin offs/prequels when they’re so far away. I was really pumped for the Naomi Watts project, but then that got cancelled.
I will literally take anything from this world. Though I’m not really a big fan of the cartoon idea. You gonna make a high drama medieval cartoon? Lol
1. holy shit that's awesome omggggg truly maybe the best parts of The World of Ice and Fire book. I think I'm on record in this thread asking for this series, though I think I asked for Lomas Longstrider instead of the Sea Snake, but I'll take it. 2. Uhh...okay I guess? There's so much lore GRRM has already introduced, I don't really know why they'd do something like this. 3. Also cool, though not as interesting as idea #1 to me. But it WOULD mean we'd get to see some more cool as locales in the Known World. They went to the Basilisk Islands, Sothoryos (!!), Naath, and the Summer Isles before finally settling in Dorne. I imagine/assume that the material for these things is probably only worth a season or 2 each, which I think is a perfect thing to do. You can do some longer form shows like House of the Dragon that focus on bigger events in history, but you can def get one or two season mini-series out of a lot of this stuff. I still can't believe they haven't decided to attempt the Conquest yet, but I guess they wanna world build a little first. And I do think, when we get far enough away from the flagship, they'll take a crack at the events leading up to Robert's Rebellion. Hopefully starting with letting us see Sir Duncan and King Egg.
Also not sure why everyone is hating on this lol. Y'all really let 1.5 seasons of mistake sour you on an entire richly built world full of some really cool stuff. There's a lot of entertaining TV to be mined from this world.
