I hope the actress for Lyanna has Kitten curly, dark hair and brown eyes. The hair because I'm tired of people saying the black hair makes him Robert's son, and the eyes because they make more sense coming from her than Rhae.

I spend way too much time thinking about genetics when it comes to casting and getting annoyed at castings that don't match. I can't help it. Genetics and DNA are a pet interest of mine.

As you said in the books Meera has Crannogmen feature and show-wise I can't believe Ellie Kendrick and Kit to be siblings, sorry. Edit: But I like that fan art very much, tinfoil or not.

I spend way too much time thinking about genetics when it comes to casting and getting annoyed at castings that don't match. I can't help it. Genetics and DNA are a pet interest of mine. It was a peeve of mine until after the first season ... then I just realized I'd have to give up on my ideals for genetics as actors are rarely going to be perfect matches and the personality/acting does count more than the looks overall. When I realized Dany and Viserys would not have violet eyes without contacts, I just gave up fussing about it. As for Jon, his eyes in the books are a color you're rarely going to see in real life... so dark grey they're almost black isn't very common and how can you tell unless you're really up close? Very dark brown is pretty close I guess! But if Lyanna has blue eyes and Rhaegar's eyes were the strange Targaryen colors, then yeah, Jon with brown eyes wouldn't make a lot of sense. Lyanna on the show should have dark eyes, I agree.

I'm still annoyed at the wrong-eyed Lily Potter(s) in the HP movies. I mean, obviously people don't go on endlessly about Jon having his mother's eyes, but the brown eyes should come from someone.

Thanks for posting this, it's one of my all time favorites and accurate since it's from the audiobook and a direct narration of the scene (except for the added ending). I'm in the middle of listening to Game of Thrones Audiobook right now before I go to sleep - but haven't listened this week at all. I like Roy Dotrice as a Narrator, he has a good voice for it. Though my chief complaint is how he mispronounces some things such as Al-BEE-no for albino and Peh-TIRE for Petyr.

Will we see him in the flashback and then reappearing during the season to break the news about Jon?

I really don't know what to think about Howland TBH. They have not cast anyone who seems to fit his description the way they did that "Legendary Fighter" casting call. Unless it's a casting call that slipped under the radar, we've had zero evidence he'll be in the show. I do suspect that 18-20 yr old girl cast and filmed in early Aug could potentially have been Lyanna since it was never really talked about at all and no one revealed. There's a slight chance they've done all this in secret and we will not know who was cast for these roles since they'd want to avoid spoilers on this one for sure. IF they cast him, I would think Howland is in the flashback for sure, maybe not later to actually speak to Jon because I suspect Jon will find out about Tower of Joy from Bran's visions.

Howland Reed has already been cast. He's portrayed by Jonathan Pryce.

I'm really excited that they're doing the TOJ. I'd love for Howland Reed to be in but I doubt it will happen....and no Jonathan Pryce is not playing him lol

That bothered me SO much. How hard would it be to slap some contacts on that kid? I don't subscribe to this twin theory either. It's...strange.

He could be in the flashback in a non-speaking role, we still don't even know who's playing Ned. Definitely agree that it's unlikely he'll pop up in the "present day".

I'm going to laugh when it turns out the Tower of Joy is just standing in for the prison Ellaria and the Sand Snakes are being sent.
Then probably cry when Tyene finds Lyanna's diary shoved between some rocks or something stupid.
