Game Of Thrones Season 5: 10 Most Intriguing Castings So Far
7. Tony Sebastian As Trystane Martell
Trystane Martell, betrothed to Myrcella Baratheon, is described as being two years older than Myrcella herself - situating him at roughly 12 years old. Given that Tony Sebastian, the actor to take on this role in season give, is older, his character has been aged to 18. Myrcella is roughly 14 in season 5, so it appears as though another warped relationship awaits fans. Though nothing could quite eclipse Tyrion Lannister marrying Sansa Stark The casting announcement for Trystane Martell named him as heir to Dorne, suggesting that his older brother Quentyn has been cut from the show altogether. More interestingly is the fact that Trystanes sister is Arianne Martell, an incredibly important character. It is from her point of view in which most of the Dornish story evokes, and she is in fact the true heir to Dorne owing to Dornish law stating that both men and women have an equal chance of inheriting lordships. Arianne is also incredibly important to the Myrcella storyline, though no official casting has been announced about her. All of this suggests that Arianne has been cut from season five, with Trystane taking her role. If this is the case Trystane will likely adopt a larger role than his novel counterpart.
