I hope whoever they cast as the Red Viper, since he will only be in a few episodes, is a really recognizable/almost A-list name...just to add weight to the awesomeness of the character...I have a hard time envisioning what his face looks like myself, so hard to spit out names as examples, but I picture a man, average build to lean, avg or even slightly below avg height, with age apparent in his face, but still moves like a cat...think Jason Statham-like (Dare to dream) but more Mediterranean, like Oded Fehr or Cliff Curtis . Pics in the links are old, so age more apparent now

Or am I off in picturing Dornishmen like Middle-Eastern/ South American in appearance?

also -

was trying to find the name of the hedge knights I referred to in the Brienne broken-knight scene and found this tid-bit that I wasn't aware of...(the last part, that is)at The Citadel:

quote:

Ser Shadrich of Shady Glen

Brienne of Tarth comes across Ser Shadrich escorting a merchant on the road to Duskendale. When speaking with him, she discovers that he too is seeking Sansa Stark, although he is hoping for the reward. She also realizes that he knows that she is on the same search, so she leaves his company as quickly as she can. Later, Ser Shadrich is among three hedge knights that Littlefinger takes into his service.

I always pictured the Red Viper looking like a skinnier Jimmy Smits with a longer nose.

ETA: Although, the Oded guy you posted looks damn close to the image in my head.

That's always been the kind of mental image I've had also. I always kind of equated Dorne with Spain in my mind's eye so always pictured a kind of olive skinned or mediteranean look.

The Oded photo in facial features/beard etc. is close to what I would picture but not someone quite as buff or bulked up as that guy looks to be.

I was thinking the same for Oberyn, either Curtis or Aasif Mandvi
