I know a song's success is completely depends on singer, lyricist and musician but some actors or actress's have most of times been lucky and there name gets attached with good music like if he or she is in the movie then the music would be good.
It kinda feels true but not at the same time like Jace is not a Targaryen truly but not gonna lie he got 'strong' genetics...
I always struggle to reconcile Michelle Fairley’s on-screen appearance with the Catelyn Stark from A Song of Ice and Fire.
In George R.R. Martin's books, Catelyn is defined by her proud, youthful House Tully traits—thick auburn hair, deep blue eyes, and an elegant, beautiful appearance that explains why Sansa is her near-identical twin. More importantly, she is only in her mid-30s during the War of the Five Kings, making her a fiercely protective mother still in her prime.
By aging her up so drastically on screen, the show lost that visual connection between Catelyn and Sansa's parallel storylines about beauty, duty, and politics. While Fairley's acting was incredible, her look always felt like a mismatch for the character I envisioned while reading. Did the age-up and aesthetic shift bother anyone else?
Don't get me wrong, Michelle Fairley is a phenomenal actress and her Red Wedding acting was masterclass. But visually? She was a total misfit for Catelyn Tully.
In the books, Catelyn is only about 33 to 35 years old. She is explicitly described as a striking, auburn-haired, blue-eyed Tully beauty with fine, high cheekbones who is still considered young and full-figured enough that Littlefinger and Brandon Stark fought a duel over her.
HBO aged up all the parents to accommodate the older child actors, but they made Catelyn look like a weathered, stern, fifty-something grandmother from Episode 1. It completely changed the dynamic of her character, her relationship with Ned, and how she was perceived by the political players of Westeros. Anyone else always feel disconnected watching her on screen compared to reading her chapters?
