Con of Thrones announced today that Game of Thrones weapons master Tommy Dunne and fan-favorite podcasters Bald Move have joined the lineup for Con of Thrones 2018!
They join an already-stelllar lineup of guests including Game of Thrones cast members Hannah Murray (Gilly), Sibel Kekilli (Shae), Miltos Yerolemou (Syrio Forel), Esmé Bianco (Ros), Kate Dickie (Lysa Arryn), Sam Coleman (Young Hodor), and Aimee Richardson (Myrcella Baratheon), along with Game of Thrones sound designer Paula Fairfield, and popular podcasts A Storm of Spoilers and The Ringer’s Binge Mode.
Dunne has been with Game of Thrones since the very beginning, even appearing on the show in two separate cameos- once in “Winter is Coming”‘s notorious shaving scene, and later in the season 4 opener, “Two Swords,” where Dunne’s expertise was on display as Ice was melted down. In addition to serving as GoT‘s weapons master for the entire span of the show, Dunne’s work as an armorer has been seen in films such as Gladiator, Black Hawk Down, V for Vendetta, The Mask of Zorro, and many more.
The fellas at Bald Move, known for the Game of Thrones Podcast, are returning for another round of Con of Thrones fun, and we’re thrilled to have them. Bald Move, consisting of Jim Jones and A.Ron Hubbard, were huge favorites at last year’s con. The duo will be bringing back their brand of insight, humor and wit, and will be featured on an array of panels at Con of Thrones 2018.

Hodor Does Dallas?
Ah, really pleased that the Bald Move podcast is returning to Con of Thrones.
I’m a big fan of Bald Move, but last year I had pretty bad luck and my own panels coincided with all of theirs, so I didn’t get to see them. This time I aim to recitfy that! They’re great.
Luka Nieto,
Go for it, Luka, and I’m a big fan of Bald Move meself. Stick it to the Man, man!
