From Ramsay to Hitler


Okay, here is more about Game of Thrones as the Sunday (April 24th) premiere of season six approaches. But instead of discussing loved characters like Jon Snow, let's focus on Iwan Rheon, better known to you as Ramsay Bolton, the sadistic butcher strategically married to Sansa Stark.

In a New York Times interview with Mr. Rheon, we learn he will be playing a young Hilter in a new BBC drama. That's a stretch. And his character is less liked than Hannibal Lector. All good for the show and maybe limiting for Mr. Rheon. 

Mr. Rheon knows he is good at dark parts, but I recommend you take a look at his character in the British sitcom Vicious, where he is a mild-mannered neighbor to a gay couple. He has been in quite a few other shows, And he also has a separate gig as a folk singer.  

So it is not all gloom and doom. In fact, he is a talented actor that I hope to see in many roles to come. 

And remember, like everyone else on Game of Thrones, his character will meet a gruesome fate soon enough.
