12 New Characters Set To Appear In Game Of Thrones Season 6

7. A Large Boy

Description: €œAn actor who is 10-12 but playing 7 or 8. He€™s described as 'a clever boy' who seems too large for his age. He€™s big and tall but not fat. 'Characterful squat features' are a plus for this part. It€™s specified that this is a one-time appearance.€ Who It Could Be: Again, as this character will seemingly be appearing with the other boys, the smart money would be on this being a young Robert Baratheon. The description certainly fits, as we know that Robert is considerably bigger than Ned, and that he wasn€™t always the fat king we meet in season 1. Given the ages, these scenes could be taking place at the Eyrie, where they were fostered together, or just before that point.

NCTJ-qualified journalist. Most definitely not a racing driver. Drink too much tea; eat too much peanut butter; watch too much TV. Sadly only the latter paying off so far. A mix of wise-old man in a young man's body with a child-like wonder about him and a great otherworldly sensibility.
