VISITOR Director Tom McCarthy To Reunite With STATION AGENT Star Peter Dinklage For HBO’s GAME OF THRONES Pilot!!

I am – Hercules!!




“The Visitor” director Tom McCarthy is reuniting with his “Station Agent” star, Peter Dinklage, for HBO’s “A Game of Thrones” pilot, based on George R.R. Martin’s series of “A Song of Ice and Fire” fantasy novels .

These are apparently very long, grown-up fantasy novels, with thousands of characters – the major ones quite flawed and complex - and lots of sex, violence and political intrigue.

AICN got a tip in February that Dinklage was likely to be tapped for the role of Tyrion.
