I saw some suggestions on a tumblr site for this, and I was thinking about worldbuilding and what people from Myr should look like.
This is a spoiler-free discussion. Basically there's a character in a later book named Taena who is from Myr, that's all the relevant info.
I thought they'd make a more diverse casting pick for Thoros of Myr, though I understand that they originally were going to, but then the original actor had a scheduling conflict. So that's what got me thinking about this. And I was excited about the major casting announcements at Comic-Con.
Some of the wish-list names I saw floating around were Monica Bellucci or Morena Baccarin. All we've really got to go on are that Myrish people, like several other Free Cities, are basically "Mediterranean" looking, olive-skinned, but that can cover a very diverse spectrum.
It would be fun if we got some more big names to join the cast later on.
But I don't know who they should pick.
One fear I saw on one tumblr post is that they might just do what they've been doing, and combine Taena with Ros (madness).--The Dragon Demands (talk) 23:48, August 14, 2012 (UTC)
