Game Of Thrones Casting Seven New Characters For Season 8

2. Northerners

Northern Farmer: Aged 25 – 35. He’s "a straightforward honest man of simple tastes who works on the land."

Sassy And Attractive Girl: Aged 18 – 25.She's "sexy and confident", and plays a memorable part in one-episode with a leading cast member.

Northern Sentry: Aged 18 – 25. They want "a characterful young Northern actor with great timing," and again plays opposite a leading character.

The North will be the first of the Seven Kingdoms to be hit by the army of the dead, so it makes sense to add a few newbies to the mix. The Sentry sounds a lot like the two guards we met last year when Arya returned to Winterfell, so could be a similar sort of scene. With most major characters now heading to the North, it fits these would be playing across leading cast members. That Northern Farmer is definitely dead meat.
