December 12, 2015 by Gary Collinson

According to Inverse, Game of Thrones star Charles Dance is set to appears in Paul Feig’s upcoming Ghostbusters remake. Although there’s no word on his role, speculation is suggesting that he’ll be the villain, which seems to be based solely on the fact that he was just so damn good at playing the bad guy during his stint as Tywin Lannister.
