Variety is reporting that Liam Cunningham (who if you’re like me and addicted to Game of Thrones will know him as Davos) has joined The Childhood of a Leader that is currently being filmed in Budapest:

““Game of Thrones” star Liam Cunningham has joined the cast of “The Childhood of a Leader,” which has now begun shooting in Hungary.

The Robert Pattinson and Berenice Bejo-starring picture is the directorial debut of Brady Corbet and is a chilling story of fascism in the early 20th century.

The story sees an American family settling in the French countryside at the end of WWI . The father is involved in the peace negotiations and his wife is a devoutly Christian stay-at-home mother. Their young son is a defiant seven year-old whose seemingly harmless tantrums begin to demonstrate a monster in the making.”

Ha! I’ve just remembered Rob’s addiction for Game of Thrones as well – he will be so excited to be in a film with Davos!

And according to Deadline:

Liam Cunningham, Yolande Moreau and Sophie Curtis are joining Berenice Bejo, Robert Pattinson and Stacy Martin in Brady Corbet’s feature helming debut, The Childhood Of A Leader. The film is currently shooting.”

We knew about Sophie Curtis, but Yolane Moreau is a new addition to the cast.  Apparently, Yolande Moreau is a Belgian comedian, actress, film director and screenwriter.  Will post more when we know character names.  As yet nothing added to IMDbPro

    All these news are so exciting thnak you for keeping us so well informed ! BTW Yolande Moreau is a great actress, I saw her in the oh so beautiful, deep and touching movie “Séraphine” from Martin Provost (Belge) and telling the story of a painter. If you like very good movie based on true story : http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/seraphine/
