Game Of Thrones: 9 New Characters Set To Appear In Season 7

3. Lieutenant

Dany Dothraki Game Of Thrones
HBO

Description: Lieutenant, in his 20s. The lieutenant is “an athletic, physically fit, and disciplined warrior.” The producers want someone who isn’t white. It sounds like they’d prefer someone of Middle Eastern descent. He’ll shoot for several days across three weeks between mid-September and mid-November.

Who It Could Be: A Middle Eastern warrior, who is disciplined, gives only one major contender for this role. This is probably going to be a member of the Dothraki, who are currently riding with Daenerys. Since Dany killed all of the khals she now leads the khalasar, but needs someone - like, oh, a lieutenant - to take command of them. That means this one will probably be Daenerys' main connection to the Dothraki, in a similar vein to Grey Worm with the Unsullied (though maybe not quite as trusted an advisor).
