As Game of Thrones season 7 rapidly approaches, former and current cast members are getting hired in new acting gigs. Case in point, Tom Wlaschiha (Jaqen H’ghar) is headed from HBO to TNT where he will be co-starring in a new drama, titled The Deep Mad Dark.
According to Deadline, The Deep Mad Dark is an hour-long drama in which Wlaschiha plays a mysterious character named Joda, who may or may not exhibit tendencies to be a violent person.
Intense and mercurial, Joda veers from menacing to jarringly insightful, even seductively warm. Is he a lost man who has battled his own demons and is trying to build an unconventional life? Or does Joda have in him the capacity for violence that Polly senses he does?
Next, Carice Van Houten (Melisandre) is joining Nikolaj Coster-Waldau (Jaime Lannister) in a film from Brian De Palma titled Domino. Van Houten and Coster-Waldau star as police officers in this suspense thriller, who turn rogue cops while attempting to track down the killer of their partner.
As they cross a Europe shaken by ongoing multiple terror attacks, the pair will discover troubling links between the man they are chasing and a CIA operative on the trail of the ISIS cell behind the attacks.
According to Deadline, Van Houten says she is delighted to be in the film and feels privileged to work with a director like De Palma. “And who knew that Jamie Lannister and Melisandre would meet outside Westeros?”
Who knew, indeed. Finally, Iwan Rheon, who played everyone’s favorite villain — Ramsay Bolton, stars in the first official trailer for Marvel’s Inhumans, from ABC. Here’s that:
Rheon once again plays a villain, with a character called Maximus. He is the brother of the King of the Inhumans, who wants to take the crown from him.
Marvel’s Inhumans will premiere as a two-hour film and will be shown in IMAX starting September 1. There, it will run for two weeks before migrating to ABC to be shown as a two-part series premiere on September 29.
