‘Lost’ Alum Joins ‘Game of Thrones’ Season Five

If playing Mr. Eko on Lost, Heavy Duty in G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra and Kurse in Thor: The Dark World was not enough to solidify actor Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje’s place in Geek culture… he has now signed on to play a mysterious role in the upcoming season of HBO fantasy series Game of Thrones.

For the GOT book readers out there who have always been one step ahead of non-book readers, this introduction of a brand new character to debut in season five most certainly isn’t from the books.

Aha! Yes, book readers… welcome to our world…

Although details for the new character named “Malko” are being kept top secret, there will be flashbacks for the first time ever in as early as the premiere episode.

This gives Adewale a chance to reunite with his Pompeii co-star Kit Harrington, who plays the ‘know-nothing’ Jon Snow on the series.
