Double the Red Priestesses, double the trouble.
Game of Thrones has just added another new face to its cast for the upcoming sixth season, and something (potentially) wicked this way comes!
Melanie Liburd is set to join the Emmy-winning HBO series when it returns this spring, E! News has confirmed, and she’ll be playing a Red Priestess. But wait, isn’t Melisandre (Carice van Houten) THE Red Priestess?!
Calm down, Melisandre fans, Liburd is not taking over the role; she’s playing another priestess entirely. (Deadline first reported Liburd’s casting.)
Liburd has made appearances on shows such as Stalker, CSI and The Grinder. And the British actress clearly a big GOT fan as she posted on Instagram, “Flying back to London then on to Spain to film Game Of Thrones. Holy *%#@ dreams actually do come true! I’m so excited I feel like jumping up and down!!”
Another new season six additions for GOT include unREAL‘s Freddie Stroma as Samwell’s brother, Ian McShane in mystery role and Max von Sydow will take over the role of the Three-Eyed Raven.
Game of Thrones will return on HBO in spring 2016.
