Alien: Earth season 2 is shaping up as Game of Thrones star Peter Dinklage has joined the cast in an unnamed mystery role. The series was renewed for a second season back in November following critical acclaim for the first season.
Dinklage's casting (via THR) brings him back to prestige TV after eight seasons as the cunning Tyrion Lannister in HBO's Game of Thrones. Though Game of Thrones waxed and waned throughout its long run, Dinklage's performance as Tyrion was consistently praised as one of the best in the series, turning him into a beloved actor.
