I sure hope he does a fantastic job! I always imagined him a little darker, but its not really that big of a deal.

So excited, def one of my faveorite characters, and bound to be well liked by non book readers :).

Isn't Red Viper supposed to be the tanned type of Dornishmen? Anyway the show doesn't really follow the books when it comes to character appearances.

reply

Yes, Oberyn is a Salty Dornishman so he should be more tan. But unfortunately the show doesn't follow the character descriptions we get from the books.

Spain and Palestina are the influences for Dorne according to GGRM, they're not white but not dark brown or black for the most part.

reply

Spanish people ARE white, for the most part.

Sirius is a psychopath.
How many Dornishmen does it take to start a war?

reply

hahaha Spanish people are white...they're Mediterranean people's for the most part like Portuguese, Italians, French and Greeks. Palestinians would also be Mediterraneans but just the Asian/Middle Eastern Version. Why not just say Mediterranean peoples?
