Fans of HBO's hit fantasy drama 'Game of Thrones' are currently gearing up for season 5.

A recent cast update says that one menacing character will appear more in the fifth season, and it is Ramsay Bolton's girlfriend, Myranda. Played by actress Charlotte Pope, Myranda has long brown hair and a doll-like face, and her looks are quite the opposite of her personality.

It is said that Myranda is a substitute for the character in the books named Jeyne Poole, created by its author, George R. R. Martin.

Myranda was last seen in season 4, aiding Ramsay Bolton in deceiving Theon Greyjoy, luring him in a sexual way. Myranda was also seen in a scene where Ramsay was in the woods, looking for a girl.

Myranda joined her boyfriend and minutes later, kills a young girl because she is jealous of the girl's good looks.

The new report further states that Myranda will appear up to 5 episodes in the fifth season, implying that there will be many scenes that can feature torture, with Myranda in the middle of it.

Meanwhile, a cameo of Tywin Lannister is also expected, with actor Charles Dance confirming the appearance of his loathed character. Dance said that the fifth season will show how Lannister's lifeless body is displayed for a week in the Great Sept before the body is sent to the west.

"Well, only my body! I don't wake up in the shower having had a dream about it all," said Dance, as reported by The Daily Beast.
