Jamie Campbell Bower Joins Cast of "Game of Thrones"

UGO is reporting that Jamie Campbell Bower will star in HBO’s upcoming new series called Game of Thrones, based on a book series by George R. R. Martin called A Song of Fire and Ice.

“I have absolutely no idea whether “March” will translate to “early March” or “the end of March.” The decision could be announced today, for all I know. Or maybe they will make us all wait until March 31. The Ides… well, maybe not. I don’t know if I can wait another fifteen days, and anyway that date has ominous connotations. “Beware the Ides of March,” and all that. So please let us know before that, HBO.” Martin said on his “not blog” Monday morning. By Tuesday afternoon he was at a presumed loss for words, and simply posted a classic Peanuts video.

HBO has requested a total of ten episodes, including the existing pilot. Filming is said to resume this June, locations include Northern Ireland and Morocco.
Although the number of actual seasons is dependant on ratings, it’s said each season will cover the storyline of at least one book.
