Game of Thrones Is Reportedly Casting Two New Roles for Season 8.
Now that Game of Thrones has ended its seventh season, fans are poring over any detail they can get for information about the eighth and final season, which starts production in October. Fan site Watchers on the Wall, which frequently breaks news about Thrones casting, reported Wednesday that the HBO series is casting two child roles for Season 8, and they could reveal where the plot is heading next.
One casting notice is for a Northern girl, ideally around age 8. The character seems very similar to Lyanna Mormont, as she’s supposed to be fearless and tell it like it is. They’re looking for a “strong-minded young girl with a fighting spirit,” and the part would film the week of November 17. Watchers on the Wall speculates the girl could be related to Lyanna Mormont, or a member of another prominent Northern family—perhaps a family that falls to the White Walkers.
