HBO schedule has been updated to 确认 titles and casting info 

This week has been very busy with updates surrounding episode titles, and the crowning confirmation is that the

HBO schedule has been updated with the reported titles of the first three episodes.

Additionally, each season 5 episode lists the regular and significant recurring cast members as usual. This is notable in this instance for one particular reason which I’ll tuck below a cut for spoiler reasons.

The cast listing confirms the return of Tom Wlaschiha. I first uncovered Wlaschiha’s return last summer on a news listing on his German agency website that was later deleted. However the actor was not spotted on set and so his return has remained officially unconfirmed until now. It’s commonly speculated that his character Jaqen H’ghar may surface in Braavos, the home of the Faceless Men, but there are other possibilities, as his character travels to other places in the books. The most popular guess, though, is that he may take on the role of the Kindly Man from the books.

The cast listing is identical for each week on the HBO schedule, so we cannot draw any conclusions from an actor’s name appearing on the episode 1 list. (Or episode 2- which is what I happened to screencap.)

I was confident Wlaschiha was returning, based on the agency news, but having it officially confirmed is fantastic!

I hope they do not include Wlaschiha in the episode cast list just for the recap before the episode begins!

I’ve seen shows do that before, but never really expected it in this case despite Tom never having been sighted during production season…

Here’s hoping we see his face even if it is for a brief face-changing scene!

I met Wlaschiha at a reading in 2013 and it was such a great night! He read the whole chapter where Arya and Jaqen escape Harrenhal (in german), answered questions and stayed after the official event for autographs and photos! A very nice man! I always hoped that he might get a chance to come back to the show once. Bring him on!

So does that mean Iwan Rheon and Michael McRooseBolton are upgraded to main cast this year or the list of actors on the schedhule has nothing to do with that ?

That is the second best cast member returning news I could imagine.
