Me, I hope he plays Bran Stark From the Future who comes back in time somehow to save the Stark family but accidentally picks the wrong year.

McShane should find himself right at home within the intricate brutality of “Thrones“.

McShane, known for portraying bad guys, scoundrels and thieves on-screen, is now guesting in the third season of “Ray Donovan“. No release date has been set for the sixth installment, “The Winds of Winter“. Next, he can be seen as a corrupt judge in Bolden and opposite Patrick Wilson in “The Man On Carrion Road“.

That’s because Season 6 is fully uncharted territory for Game of Thrones, since it’s based on Martin’s storylines that haven’t yet been previously released in one of his novels. “The question is how much beyond seven are we going to do”, said Lombardo on Thursday.

The ten episodes now under production will air on HBO in the spring of 2016.

McShane is represented by Independent Talent Group, Gallant Management, ICM and Sloane, Offer, Weber and Dern.
