Game of Thrones: Stannis, Melisandre & Davos are cast
The guy who played Thomas Jefferson in the John Adams miniseries gets the role of Stannis Baratheon:
artistic picture of the dour & intense Stannis, the polar opposite of his big brother Robert:


the actual actor


I like the look of Carice Van Houten, who is playing the key role of the sorceress Melisandre. Oddly, just the other day, I rented "Black Death" because it had Sean Bean in it, and Van Houten played a sorceress in that movie as well.
artistic rendering:

the actress (even has the red ruby necklace...)


And, one of my favorite characters, Davos Seaworth, the Onion Knight, will be played by Liam Cunningham:
artistic rendering:


The actor in question (could have made a good Stannis, too)

4. They did a good job casting Season 1
and, it looks like they've continued with Season 2... the casting director is up for an Emmy, I believe.
