Game of Thrones has been adding new cast members every season even faster than it’s been killing them off (which is saying something), and Season 5 is no exception. On Friday, HBO released the names of a slew of new actors who will be featured in Season 5, many of them playing members of the Martell family. (Viewers will definitely remember the gruesome death of Oberyn Martell at the end of Season 4.)
Here’s a full list of the nine new cast members:
Alexander Siddig as Doran Martell, the older brother of Prince Oberyn
Toby Sebastian as Trystane Martell, Doran’s son
Nell Tiger Free as Myrcella Baratheon, Cersei and Jaime Lannister’s eldest child
