Over the next few months, we will want to develop a list of characters who need to be cast this season. When considering suggestions of characters to include, consider the following:
So, for the Men this season, we would need to cast:
For the Villains, there are no new characters.
For the Frame...well, let's hold off on that for now, but obviously we will have Frame characters to cast as well.
Does this character play a significant role in the story? If they are merely 'there' in the background of some scenes, we would not need to cast them at this season casting level - that would be up to the director of that particular episode to arrange. Characters such as Gelmir son of Guilin and Gorlim the Unhappy will likely appear in this season, but not as significant enough characters to warrant a casting decision. Characters who have speaking roles and appear in multiple episodes would be good candidates for casting.
So, for the Men this season, we would need to cast:
Bëor
Adanel
Andreth
Barahir
Bregor?
Hador
Amlach
Bereg
Galdor
Gundor?
Haleth
Haleth's father Haldad?
Haleth's brother Haldar?
Haleth's nephew Haldan?
Hareth?
Elves:Maeglin
For the elves, all characters have already been cast, right? With the possible exception of Finduilas and Gil-galad, who could be saved for next season, and any minor character in Gondolin or Nargothrond that we might choose to highlight.For the Villains, there are no new characters.
For the Frame...well, let's hold off on that for now, but obviously we will have Frame characters to cast as well.
