Jim Broadbent joins the cast of “Game of Thrones”

If there is one show that is famous for the untimely deaths of its characters, it is “Game of Thrones”. Its sixth season upped the levels by making most of its cast meet their end. For this reason, many more additions to the fantasy show’s roster are to be expected. Jim Broadbent joining “Game of Thrones” is just the beginning.

No other casting news about the medieval fantasy series

It has been announced by Deadline that there has been no news about other actors being attached to the next era of “Game of Thrones”. The same article revealed that Jim Broadbent would occupy a major role in the coming episodes of this HBO feature. There is not much space for speculation either, because George R. R. Martin has not yet released the sixth book of “A Song of Ice and Fire”.
