The dossier
The architect of the Red Wedding
Walder Frey has spent his entire life being mocked by the major houses of Westeros. He is lecherous, profoundly cruel to his own massive family, and driven entirely by a fragile ego and a desperate need for respect.
David Bradley plays the character with a gleeful, repulsive menace. He completely abandons any pretense of honor, treating the sacred laws of hospitality as a joke in his singular pursuit of revenge against Robb Stark.
He is the mastermind behind the series’ most devastating trauma. Walder Frey is a terrifying reminder that true evil doesn’t always come from powerful magic; sometimes, it comes from an old, bitter man with a grudge.
