Fantastic, I can clearly see all these actors in the roles and I'm sure they will be brilliant.
It may have been mentioned elsewhere, but I was wondering if anyone has any idea if all the cast and crew - or how many of them - have read the books and are fans of them? I know it's not required for actors to have read the original source material to put in a good performance in a film or TV adaption, and I know busy people may not have the time to read through thousands of pages, but it would be good to know. Even in a serial drama it will be impossible to put everything that is in the books on the screen, but the little details mentioned in passing on the page can create a richer performance when noticed by the performer in a careful reading.
