Posted 08/21/2012 by alicemarvels in Marvels

Season three of HBO’s Game of Thrones TV series is looking good (although very far away—it premieres April 2013).

Ciaran Hinds (Rome) has been cast as the “King Beyond the Wall” aka Mance Rayder.

UK rapper Ed Skrein and actor Jacob Anderson (Skins) have been cast as Daario Naharis, the warrior who helps Daenerys Targarian sail into Westeros, and Grey Worm, the leader of the Unsullied eunichs, respectively.

If all this chatter surrounding Westeros has you missing the show and/or the books, check out this trailer for the book Inside HBO’s Game of Thrones for a little reminiscing. The book releases September 25th.
