Filming has been underway for a few weeks in Northern Ireland for the second season of Game Of Thrones but the announcements keep coming. The latest is Oona Chaplin.



She will play Jeyne Westerling, a fairly minor character in the second book of the series but it appears her role is to be beefed up so that both she and Robb Stark can provide us with some romance. Without giving too much away, Robb and Jeyne hook up under strenuous circumstances. But since Robb has already promised to marry a daughter of the vindictive Lord Fray, things get a bit difficult to say the least.

Chaplin, granddaughter of Charlie, has appeared in the last James Bond flick Quantum Of Solace as well as numerous Spanish-language films. More recently UK fans will have spotted her in the drama series The Hour.

Sounds good, Wouldn't be the first time they gave minor characters bigger roles before their time. As for Clash of Kings, I never thought I would hate a character more than King Joffrey, but Theon Greyjoy has pissed me off the entire book. Except when he flirted with Asha, that was too funny.

Love this show, can't wait for season 2!!! I haven't read the book but I probably will, Joffrey needs to be raped by a giant bore tusk and slowly and painfully killed....that is the level of contempt I have for that little inbreed bastard!!!

Catwoman1, I don't think that word means what you think it means, if I may quote Princess Bride.

It means she only got the job because of her family, if she wanted to be taken seriously as an actress drop the "Chaplin" and Rex I'm quite aware what the word means.
