Former “Game of Thrones” actress Aimee Richardson has responded to the news of her role being recast in the show.

Richardson took to her Vine account to release a video titled “Well this is embarrassing.” The video shows Richardson on the side of the street holding a sign reading, “Princess for Hire.”

The production announced Richardson’s role of Myrcella Baratheon went to actress Nell Tiger Free in season five during San Diego Comic-Con 2014. The “Game of Thrones” production also cast Alexander Siddig will play Doran Martell, Toby Sebastian will play Trystane Martell and DeObia Oparei is taking on the role of Areo Hotah.

Enzo Cilenti will also join the cast as Yezzan, Jessica Henwick is Nymeria Sand, Keisha Castle-Hughes is Obara Sand, Rosabell Laurenti Sellers is Tyene Sand and Jonathan Pryce will play “High Sparrow.”


HBO showrunners have kept quiet about more changes coming to “Game of Thrones,” but actress Maisie Williams has had enough with the “snobby” book readers who get upset when storylines are changed or characters are dropped.

Williams told TV Line she liked that the show cut out Lady Stoneheart from the series and didn’t care for the reactions for book fans online.

“That was a massive deal, but honestly, I really like it,” Williams said. “I’m so sick of going on the Internet and seeing all the book readers being snobby, spoiling it for other people, then saying, ‘Well, it’s not a spoiler. The books have been out for years.’ Like, couldn’t you just stop being mad for a second and let other people enjoy the show?

“They feel they have a claim on the series because they read the books first, and I understand that, but they don’t need to be mean about it,” she added. “That’s why I liked moments like this, because book readers think they know what’s coming, then we change it and it’s really funny to watch their reactions. They’re always like, ‘That’s not what happened in the books, so the show’s really bad now.’ But really, they just feel insecure because they’re used to knowing what’s coming next.”
