Just a little follow-up to an earlier Game of Thrones spoiler that has us playing guessing games. Back in August, it was announced that actor Ian McShane (of Deadwood fame) will be joining the sixth season of Game of Thrones in a small but apparently important role. Via EW at the time:
The show’s tight-lipped production will not reveal any details about McShane’s character, who’s coming on board for the most mysterious season yet. Thrones is preparing to dive headlong into narrative territory not yet revealed in author George R.R. Martin’s novels (and despite that opening sentence, McShane’s character could theoretically appear in Westeros or Essos or somewhere in between).
We can tell you, however, that sources say McShane has a relatively small amount of screen-time during the season, yet his character is of key importance.
So… What could that be? It certainly has us playing guessing games. A few possibilities in the video above…
