Westeros champions an actor
On the forums at Westeros, Avery Clark, an aspiring young actor has thrown his name into the casting discussion. He is primarily a stage actor but is such a huge fan of A Song of Ice and Fire that he is looking to get cast in the pilot and/or series. He has posted links to his official site and Youtube videos of various auditions. Below is a video of him as Philip in the play Lion of Winter.
Winter Is Coming: I have to say I was impressed by these audition videos. Benioff and Weiss have already stated that they will be letting the fans know where to send resumes, head shots and other audition materials for those interested in possibly being cast in this series. I’m sure most of the folks that send things in ultimately will be rejected, but Clark may have a shot. Many on the boards are recommending him for the role of Theon. I’m not sure HBO will want to give such a major role to an inexperienced (at least in television) actor. However I could see him being cast in a more minor role, perhaps as Viserys or Marillion.
