Richard Madden (born on June 1986) is a Scottish stage, film, and television actor who has portrayed of Robb Stark in the fantasy TV series, Game of Thrones

Madden grew up in Elderslie, Scotland. His mother, Pat, is a classroom assistant, and his father, Richard, is in the fire service. At the age of 11, he joined Paisley Arts Centre's youth theatre programme to help overcome his shyness. He was soon cast as young Andy in the film adaptation of Iain Banks's Complicity, followed by his being cast in a lead role as Sebastian in the television series Barmy Aunt Boomerang, for which he filmed 6 episodes that aired from 1999 through 2000. He graduated from the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama in 2007.

While at RSAMD he worked with the Arches and Glasgow Repertory Company, followed by Franz Xavier Kroetz's play Tom Fool at the Citizens' Theatre, which was so well received that it transferred to London, where Madden was spotted by a team from the Globe Theatre. In his final year with RSAMD, he was cast as Romeo in a production of Romeo and Juliet at the Globe Theatre which, after a run in London, toured in open-air stages during the Summer of 2007, being the Globe's first-ever tour. He also played Callum McGregor in the stage production of Malorie Blackman's 'Noughts and Crosses' in 2008.

He later gained the lead role of Dean McKenzie in the 2009 BBC series Hope Springs, followed by his roles as Ripley in the 2010 film Chatroom, and as Theatre of Hate singer Kirk Brandon in the 2010 film Worried About The Boy. Since 2011, he has starred as Robb Stark in the HBO series Game of Thrones, based upon George R. R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire series of novels, the Channel 4 series Sirens and in the BBC series Birdsong.

In May 2013, Madden is the first pick to portray the Prince in the live action Disney film Cinderella.

'Game of Thrones': Richard Madden on Robb Stark Growing Up, Having Sex and Killing Joffrey

By Crystal Bell

post-20251-0-1446061723-98357_thumb.jpg

When we last saw Robb Stark (Richard Madden), he was leading the North to war against King Joffrey (Jack Gleeson) to avenge his father's death, and after a string of victories that stretched south into the Riverlands, it looks as if the King in the North is on an unstoppable streak. However, as the late Ned Stark's eldest son will learn, this game of thrones is not all about winning the battles.

In Season 2 of HBO hit fantasy series "Game of Thrones" (Sundays at 9 p.m. ET), the newly-appointed King of the North will need to start using his head more than his sword. He's already sent his mother Lady Catelyn (Michelle Fairley) off to negotiate an alliance with King Renly (Gethin Anthony) in Highgarden, and he also has his captive, Jaime Lannister (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau), at his -- and his direwolf Grey Wind's -- mercy.

Yet, Robb Stark is still his father's son, and his honorable nature is something that actor Richard Madden says might get the Young Wolf into trouble. After all, fans of George R.R. Martin's "A Song of Ice and Fire" know that oftentimes, honorable men have no place in war.

"Honor is a Stark trait, and it's going to be a real problem for Robb," Madden told HuffPost TV. "What I love so much about him is that he follows his heart in everything he's does. He's one of the only characters where everything comes from a sense of good, and being just and fair. But this whole situation has become much bigger than him just looking after his family. He's looking after 20,000 men, and they've all got mothers and wives and daughters and sons all behind them, so now he has 20,000 families to look after. He's got a great heart, and he cares about people a lot, but that will also end up causing him a lot of problems later."

Madden also talked to HuffPost TV about what's to come for Robb Stark. Apparently, this means that viewers will get to see a bit more of Robb this season.

First question: Team Robb or Team Jon? I'm only slightly kidding.

[Laughs.] What about Team Theon? I think some people might be on his team too!

Really? I don't think so. I think everyone would just like to see Robb and Jon [Kit Harington] reunite.

I would love to have scenes with Kit again. I really would. I think there was a lot left unsaid between those two brothers, and I would love for them to meet again. I just don't see how it's possible. We're so far apart! Maybe we can do a spinoff series of Jon Snow and Robb Stark? I wonder if people would like that? "The Adventures of Jon Snow and Robb Stark"? Yeah, that would be cool. Or, what about "Beyond the Wall"? Yeah, that would be good too.

When I talked to Kit, he said that, "The ones who are most suited for power are the ones who don't really want it." Even though he's King in the North, Robb doesn't want the Iron Throne.

No, he wants to go home. He wants to have his family, bring them home and do what he is supposed to do, which is be Lord of Winterfell. But it's a responsibility that he's happy to take. There's this fantastic speech later on in the show where he talks about what that means to him. What I love is that even though that's what he wants to do, he can't because there are other factors playing, and he's not selfish in any way. For someone so young, he's such a man, especially in this season. He makes a lot of tough decisions, and he's acting like a man. But sometimes, the mask can drop and you're like, "My god, he's just a boy, acting like a man." This whole season, he's leaning by doing. Everything is a new experience -- a first time -- for Robb.

Here at HuffPost TV, we do weekly power rankings, and I just wanted to let you know that Robb is currently No. 1.

Yes! Awesome! Although, it's kind of funny, considering what happens, but I'll take it.

But right now, he's making some good decisions. He has Jaime right where he wants him, and now Catelyn is off talking to Renly.

Yeah, and he's won every battle. He's got a lot of power at the moment. I like that you've got power rankings. It's great. What's so good about it, though, is that I don't think Robb sees it like that. He's in that scene with Jaime in the cage, almost posturing this sort of arrogance and confidence, which he needs to, but he knows that this situation is unpredictable. He doesn't know what's going to happen. He doesn't feel like he's got lots of power. He needs to make everyone around him feel like he does, but he never feels like him and Catelyn are at the top of the list. He never stops working and trying to make things happen. You won't see Robb get complacent.

Unlike, perhaps, King Joffrey, who I think everyone would like to personally kill at this point in the series.

It's funny because Jack [Gleeson] is such a great guy, but he just plays that part so, so well. Joffrey is straight-up crazy, and no wonder, you know? Look at his mother and father! He's got problems. If people hated him in Season 1, just wait until you get to the end of Season 2. You're really going to hate this guy. A lot of people ask me, "Are you going to kill Joffrey? Are you going to slap him? I want to slap him!" I'd love to see Robb and Joffrey together. I think that would make for a great scene.

I'm sure everyone would love to see that, especially after what he's doing to Sansa [sophie Turner].

Oh my god. If Robb knew half of that, he would tear Joffrey apart.

Kit also said that he's read all of the books in the series because he wanted to know as much as he could about Jon Snow. Have you read all of them? Or do you go season by season?

I go season by season. I don't like to preempt myself, and I feed on knowledge. That's why I like to engulf each book and really pull from it, and I know that if I read too far ahead -- which is hard to not do because all I want to do is just plow through them -- there's no element of surprise. It's nice to read the book and then read the scripts. Sometimes I'll be reading the books and Robb will make a decision that I never saw coming, and if it surprises me that much, I want the audience to be as surprised when they see it happening.

[spoiler ALERT] But I'm sure your character's fate has been spoiled to you by eager fans.

Oh yeah! Straight away. People are like, "Oh my god. Do you know what happens to your character?" On the street people are like, "Oh my god! Your character!" And I'm like, "I know, already! Okay? Don't tell me!" I know exactly what happens, and people have told me a lot of details about it, but I'm like, [Covers ears] "Be quiet! Be quiet! I don't want to ruin it!." I want to see it happen for myself and read it and feel it as I go along, rather than be spoiled.

Of course, there are differences between the books and the series.

Exactly! There are differences. We're not doing the books; we're doing the TV show. It is going to be different, so there will be some things that the book readers won't be familiar with, and that's exciting. It keeps us all guessing. The storylines do change, and what's funny is that what can start off as a small change, can actually end up being quite different from the books -- but it all stems from the honesty of the books. We're making a 10-hour movie every year, and things have to be different. I think fans will really like what we've done this season.

Fans will probably enjoy seeing you on screen more than they thought because Robb really isn't in "A Clash of Kings" as much as you're in Season 2.

Completely! I was like, "OK, this is great. We've been given another season. This is fantastic," and then I start reading, and I'm like, [Page flipping] Aw, this sucks! I'm not in this! What's going on? I'm just not in this." Thankfully -- and brilliantly --[executive producers] David [benioff] and Dan [Weiss] have given Robb a lot to do this year, and you get to see him because he's talked about a lot in the book. People will get to see Robb, and then there's a great story coming up for him about this woman that comes into his life.

I've seen the first four episodes, and I was really happy to see that in Episode 4, we finally get introduced to your new lady friend, who goes by Jeyne Westerling in the books, and as book fans know, she plays quite a significant role in Robb's life.

Oh, yes. Although, that's not her name in the show now. They've changed it, but Oona [Chaplin] is just fantastic. I'm so glad it was her that was cast in this part because we have such great chemistry. I've watched a couple of scenes back, and there's just something about when Oona and I get together that works really well on screen, so hopefully people will agree.

It will also be the first time Robb has really been with a woman. Now, the sex scenes in "Game of Thrones" have been somewhat polarizing for the audience -- some people love them and some people think they're too much. But I think that in this show, sex is pretty much seen as currency.

Yeah, totally agree. There are a lot of people who complain about the amount of sex and nakedness on the show, and you can see a bit of it and say, "Oh, wow, this is quite a lot of sex," but in their world, sex isn't taboo. It's just currency, and it's natural. People do have lots of sex in this show, and that's why I like it. I don't find it gratuitous. It's like, "Yeah, whatever, sex is sex." I like that David and Dan don't shy away from it. They're not throwing in lots of sex to make it sexy. They're doing it because it's just casual currency. It means nothing to a lot of these characters, or they're using it for certain reasons. It's not just, "Let's see more tits and ass."

That's what's so interesting about the relationship between Robb and Jeyne because you do see genuine feelings there.

That's what is so good about it. There is so much sex in the show, and it's really easy and sometimes, it just happens, or there's lots of women and one man [laughs] or whatever! But with Robb and this woman that's come into his life, I think that Robb's not really experienced in that way, and anything that happens between them comes out of their true feelings for one another. It's not just sex. It's not easy for anyone in Robb's position. This is the first time that he's ever had proper feelings for a woman, so as their relationship develops, things come from a really heartfelt place.

Now, about those direwolves. They look pretty terrifying this season.

We've done it a few different ways. We had real wolves, and then we had CGI wolves, and then we had some kind of weird hybrid, where we had real wolves, but they had CGI effects to make them bigger. I don't even know how it works now. I'm on set with a lovely big metallic ball on a wooden stick, that I can pretend to stroke and rub. So it's not really the same, but that's okay. In Season 1, it was good to have those scenes with the puppies, but then they grow up. I think I'd much rather have a wooden stick and metallic ball than a real direwolf on set.

'Game Of Thrones' Robb Stark Speaks: Richard Madden Addresses Shocking Development

By Maureen Ryan

June 2, 2013

As soon as he wrapped the bloody "Game of Thrones" scene in which his character, Robb Stark, was killed, actor Richard Madden went straight to the airport and flew home to London.

"And I cried the whole way," Madden said in a recent phone interview. "I was the crazy boy on the plane crying."

In an interview with a small group of journalists on Friday, Madden talked about how difficult it was to film the Red Wedding, a tragic event that was even bloodier on the screen than it was in the George R.R. Martin book.

Not only did Robb Stark, the King in the North, perish in Sunday's episode, but Robb's mother, Catelyn (Michelle Fairley), also died -- all of which tracks with what transpired at those cursed nuptials in "A Storm of Swords," the third book in Martin's "A Song of Ice and Fire" series. As payback for Robb not marrying one of his daughters, Lord Walder Frey engineered the deaths of the Starks -- but even those who've read the books may have been shocked by the third significant death at the so-called Red Wedding.

In the episode, Robb's pregnant wife, Talisa, was also murdered, thus eliminating the Stark clan from competition for the Iron Throne (at least for now). As fans know, Talisa (Oona Chaplin) is a new character; in the books, Robb married Jeyne Westerling (who did not die in "A Storm of Swords").

Below, Madden talks about filming Robb's final moments, working with his great friend Fairley and the tears that were shed on set that difficult day. He also offers thoughts on why Talisa had to die and discusses what the King in the North had in common with his ill-fated father, Ned.

Below, Madden talks about filming Robb's final moments, working with his great friend Fairley and the tears that were shed on set that difficult day. He also offers thoughts on why Talisa had to die and discusses what the King in the North had in common with his ill-fated father, Ned. Don't miss HuffPost TV's interview with Fairley.

What did it mean to film your exit with Michelle? Can you talk about that, and how you supported each other as actors and people through this huge scene? [Asked by AccessHollywood.com]

We developed the best relationship on and off the screen over the course of the past few years. And we went into that scene with a heavy heart, because we really love being on that show and we love working together ... It was a really hard thing to push through, but the scripts were great and the whole episode was so operatic.

...

When we shot the scene, it took a few days because it's huge. There's actually a moment in the scene that we look at each other, and it's Robb Stark essentially saying goodbye to his mother and giving up. And rather than it being something really bad, there's a moment of tragedy and utter relief, actually -- because these two characters have fought and fought and fought and fought, and it's finally over. Me and Michelle really felt that on the day, as did a lot of the crew, I think. It was a big emotional moment because we're one big family that's plowed on through this for years, and it's a sad day.

When did you know Robb would die? When did you read the books, and when were you aware of the course of his future? [HuffPost TV]

As soon as I got the job, people managed to spoil a lot for me. Constantly, people would be like, "Oh my God, your death, that was so terrible." And you're like, "What? Oh, right."

But I read [the books] season by season, because ... I never wanted to preempt where the character went. And as an actor, it was a much better challenge for me to make decisions based on the scripts and based on the first book and then the second book. And then, by the time you get to the third book and Robb's making other decisions, then I'm, as an actor, forced to bend the path I put Robb on and change it and keep the surprises coming. Hopefully, I managed to do that.

How do you hope Robb is remembered by fans? [HBO.com]

I suppose, much like Ned, I think it's constantly been in my brain through the whole time -- I mean, less so into Season 3, where he starts making worse decisions. But just like his father, as an honest man and a just man.

You know, typically in "Game of Thrones," people who are honest and just and do things for the right reasons are the people who tend not to survive, and Robb's a great example of that. But I hope he's remembered as a good man and, essentially, the man that would have been the best person to lead the Seven Kingdoms. It's tragic that he is killed, because I think he is the best leader of all the candidates available at the moment.

Because of the fans of the books and this show are so devoted, how are you anticipating the next couple of weeks are going to go for you? [Calgary Herald]

I don't know. I just hope people really enjoy the surprise of it. I hope a lot of people haven't been as stupid as I was and Googled that kind of thing before the time came. I learned that lesson very quickly in Season 1, not to Google things... [it's] great for research purposes but not great dramatically, because you learn about all the stories before [they] actually happen.

One of the big changes about the Red Wedding is the fact that Talisa dies. And she's pregnant at this point. Why do you think that it was important to have her character die when [Robb's wife] lives in the books? And also, what was your relationship like working with Oona? [Zap2it.com]

I think it was important for her to die, because in the books the characters are very different ... It's just a full stop to that train of a story of [Robb's] army. I think it's more tragic that there's nothing left over from it. There's no possibility that Talisa's in hiding and going to have a baby, and one day, that baby will take over as King of the North. There's something tragic about it just all being cut short instantly.

And I have such a great relationship with Oona on set. She's a wonderful actress and I think she did something very clever with the part that was honest and kind, but had a strength deep inside her. And I think that resonates a lot with Catelyn -- even though they are very different characters and very different women, essentially there's bits of the characters that [have] real parallels. There's that quiet strength that Oona has, that Talisa has, that Catelyn has, that Michelle has. [it] really powers things through and makes it all the more tragic when those characters get killed, because they're the least deserving of being slaughtered in such a way.

[Executive producers D.B. Weiss and David Benioff have said] they effectively wanted to make the show in order to make it to Season 3, and the Red Wedding is the reason why. As the central figure in the Red Wedding, I was wondering what it feels like to have that kind of weight on your shoulders from Dan and David on down? [RollingStone.com]

I consider it a bit of an honor, actually, that David and Dan trusted me with this character. I think I was, like, 21 when I first met them. After I got cast and got familiar with them and became friends with them, I learned so much about how [much they wanted to get to this point in the show]. It was a gift for me in Season 2 -- they really gave me a lot more material than the book featured. Hopefully, I've been able to build a character with them, and that means that by the time the audience gets to see this episode, they are as involved with Robb Stark as I am, as David and Dan have been since the very beginning. So I consider it less of a weight and more of an honor that I was trusted with that responsibility.

Obviously you must empathize with this character, having been a part of him for so long. Did you feel a little bit of bitterness in the way he went? Because not only doesn't he avenge his father, but he's denied that big heroic, glorious death that we're used to in this genre if someone is bumped off. Do you have any hard feelings about the way he's going out? [New York Daily News]

I mean, it's horrible, obviously. I don't have any bitterness to it, because I think Robb Stark dying there in that way is one of the best things [the show has done]. One thing HBO does so beautifully, and "Game of Thrones" does so beautifully, is just rip these characters' hearts out in front of you. You know, it's hard, and yet maybe it would have been better for Robb to have died gloriously on the battlefield or something else like that. But this is so sudden and violent and horrible. And I think the way that I've tried to build Robb Stark up and the way the writers have [written him], there's no other way we could have killed him. Because he is great on the battlefield, and despite his very poor choices, he is a great leader. A lot of people would stick up for him and watch his back. [At the Red Wedding,] he's been outsmarted, and it all comes from his good heart and his trust of other people. His trust that people will do the right thing and not just destroy each other like they do.

What was mood like on the set when you hit that key part of the sequence? [New York Daily News]

Honestly, it was horrible. It was a really difficult day for everyone, and there was lots of tears from many people, including myself. Just ... the way it happens -- Robb Stark with his dead queen in his arms and his stomach ripped open and blood pumping out of that. His mother getting her throat slit. It was a really disturbing day. And just because it's such a big part of my life and of Michelle's and Oona's and all of the crew -- we've been through a lot together, from extreme weather conditions to just the journey of trying to make this show as best as we can, and pushing forward against lots of things that have been pushing back against us.

There was just a total sense of exhaustion, and it was horrific. And these characters that you love get slaughtered. And it made me think of my dad: When he read all the books and he got to the Red Wedding, he put the book down and didn't go back to it for a couple of months. And I think it's obviously because he ties Robb Stark in so closely with me. The journey of that character and the fondness that we all had for each other as a cast and the crew [made it hard]. As the characters playing the story, it was really moving and not very nice. And I left [the] set and got straight to the airport and got on the plane because I didn't want to be there anymore. It was very difficult.

How long did this stay with you? How long did it take to shake this off? [AccessHollywood.com]

It won't shake off until I've seen the episode, so it is still there. That will be really difficult to watch. I think it will dredge up a lot of emotions and stuff that I maybe just pushed aside for a while ... It's not like any other job I've had, because you don't close the book on that character. It's just like you become him for six months, and then, [next season] you come straight back into his shoes, literally the same boots that you were wearing the season before, the same costume.

It's funny because I'm still very close with all the crew, and I've been talking to the hair department and the other actors who are all gearing up and going back into it. It's really strange for me. It's like when you've done a play for four months and the first night that you don't do the play, it gets to about 7 p.m. and you realize that you're pacing up and down ... Something’s missing. You realize, "Oh, God. It's because I'm not just about to go on stage." I suppose there's a little element of that that's happening.

Did it ever occur to you to lobby for altering Robb's fate or extending his time on the show? Obviously the producers were open to changing the character of Talisa from Jeyne, so did you ever discuss extending Robb's time a little bit or maybe going about this a different way? [HuffPost TV]

No, I knew when it was in the placing of the books and the placing of the scripts from the start of the job. I knew that's when we were aiming to do it. And I think it's the perfect time for that. Other stories are going to move forward and progress, but it's also shocking enough at this stage. I didn't want to change it at all. And I know that David and Dan have spent so many years structuring things out beautifully, and I'm not going to come in and try to push any of that around because I want an extra season of "Game of Thrones," or anything like that.

I wanted to stick to it, and I wanted it to be as sudden and as shocking as it was when I read the book and I read that section. Hopefully, the audiences are going to be shocked by it. It [takes place in] Episode 29, so that's very [early for a show to be] killing off another character, just like what happened to Sean Bean's character [Ned Stark]. I think it's essential. I did not want to mess with that.

Do you have a favorite scene or a moment over the past three seasons? [HBO.com]

Instantly, I get flashbacks of all of my scenes with Michelle Fairley. And in one Season 1 scene, I feel like that was the moment I started to kind of really fit into Robb's shoes. [it] was with Bran, when I come to say goodbye to him and I'm going off in the night and I've got a sword around my waist and my cloak on. I think that was something where you go, "This is a significant change point for Robb Stark, leaving Winterfell and going off and becoming a man." That was an important scene for me, because I love Isaac [Hempstead-Wright, who plays Bran] a lot, and that was a really great scene to film. But any time I'm on set with Michelle Fairley, it's a joy.

You were saying you came on to "Game of Thrones" when you were 21 and you grew and developed as a person, as an actor on the show. And does your journey parallel Robb's in some ways? [Calgary Herald]

There's been a lot of that, from Robb Stark being a young man, not expecting anything, thinking his life's going to be on one path, and then he gets pushed more weight and responsibility put onto him and demands made of him. And I suppose for me as an actor, there was similar [journey]. David and Dan started to push me more and give me more responsibility, writing scenes into Season 2 that never existed and giving me more of an on-screen journey and responsibilities. So that was something I really enjoyed, because as an actor I get pushed and I grow more and I have more responsibility to keep up with and deal with, like Robb has. But you rise to the challenge -- I mean, Robb did and hopefully I did.

Do you have a message for fans who are going to be watching this happen for the first time on the show -- encouragement to keep watching after the Red Wedding takes place? [Zap2it.com]

I don't. Apart from: No one is safe in "Game of Thrones."

Obviously, it was an emotional sequence, but I was wondering if you were ever able to step back and think about its potential place in TV history. It seems to me that it could well be talked about like "Who shot J.R.?" from "Dallas" or the finale of "The Sopranos" and these really pivotal television moments. Did you have any kind of sense of that while you were making the show? [RollingStone.com]

Never. I've never had any sense of that as an actor. I think I get too involved in what [i'm filming] that I always get surprised ... For me, I just shoot a television show in Ireland. And then you travel around the world and you realize there's so much more than that. I'm not being ignorant when it comes to that, it's just that I go and I've made this program with people that I consider my friends for years now, and so I have no kind of concept of the significance of that.

I only have an awareness of what I'm trying to achieve as an actor and what my job as the character is. I remember the scale of it and the emotion that it brought out of me and the other people there, and thinking that this was something significant. But the lines get a bit muddled up between characters and actors sometimes ... and that's what keeps me from having an awareness of the outside world. I'm just focused on doing my job well.

[Michael McElhatton, who plays Roose Bolton,] was the one who delivered the killing blow in the scene, as this character does in the book. Did he apologize at the end of it, once the cameras stopped rolling? [New York Daily News]

No, not at all. Not at all. Just like Roose Bolton wouldn't. There was no apology at all there. Quite funny, because you're covered in blood and he's got his prop knife in his hand, and then we have a hug to say, "Pleasure working with you." So that's quite an odd image that just comes up in my head.

Could you clarify where the plane was going [when you left the set]? [AccessHollywood.com]

Home, London. And I cried the whole way. I was the crazy boy on the plane crying and, at about midnight, landing in London.

Madden's Excitement Over Cinderella


http://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk


 


Richard Madden has said that he thought he would be too old to play Prince Charming in Kenneth Branagh's Cinderella.


 


The 27-year-old has been cast in the role in the upcoming live-action Disney remake alongside Downton Abbey's Lily James as Cinderella.


He told Access Hollywood: "It feels really odd. I'm like, 'Surely, not me. Surely, I'm too old. I can't be!' Oh, actually, all right. I'm doing it!"


The Game Of Thrones star, who played former King in the North Robb Stark in the fantasy series, revealed that the film, to be directed by Kenneth, would be faithful to the classic fairytale.


"(It's) very true to the tale of the story. There's little changes happening now, so I'm not sure where it's going to go, but it's the story of Cinderella as we know it and it's an amazing cast with an outstanding director, so it's going to be really exciting," he said.


Cate Blanchett is on board to play Lady Tremaine, with Helena Bonham Carter cast as the Fairy Godmother, while Holliday Grainger and Sophie McShera have also joined the film as the ugly sisters Anastasia and Drizella Tremaine.


Stellan Skarsgard is in talks to play the Grand Duke.


Cinderella is scheduled to be released in 2015.

Also his thread deserves better than this emptiness. I'll update it a bit.

 

Love the fact he's so low key/private. His fans were like "HE'S ALIVE" at the sighting 😅
