January 19, 2012: ‘Game of Thrones’ UK Return Date Announced

Game of Thrones will return to Sky Atlantic on Monday, April 2.

The premiere has been scheduled for 9pm, meaning that it will broadcast in the UK less than 24 hours after it airs on HBO in the US.

Lena Headey, who plays Cersei on the fantasy drama, teased that the second run will be “even more crazy” and “exciting”.

Natalie Dormer, Liam Cunningham, Hannah Murray, Robert Pugh, Michael McElhatton and Patrick Malahide are among the actors who have signed up for this season’s instalments of Game of Thrones.

The show’s first run aired last year to critical acclaim. Peter Dinklage won an Emmy and Golden Globe Award for his turn as Tyrion Lannister.

Sky Atlantic recently picked up Showtime’s House of Lies starring Don Cheadle. The channel also intends to air the first two seasons of American football drama Friday Night Lights starting from February.

August 08, 2011: Hannah Joins ‘Game of Thrones’ & Tim Burton’s ‘Dark Shadows’

It has been confirmed via a number of sources (including Hannah’s official page at Troika Talent) that Hannah will be joining the cast of HBO’s Game of Thrones for season 2 as a character called Gilly. She will be joining fellow Skins alumni Joe Dempsie, and the series has been a huge success so far, so this is very exciting news!

It also seems that she’s joined the cast of Tim Burton’s star-studded Dark Shadows! So far her character is known as ‘Hippy chick’ and I can’t find much more than that, but it’s still great news as any Tim Burton film is a definite advantage!
