3°) language creator David J. Peterson on GoT about Charles
AVC: "History produces grammar"—fascinating. You’re really looking at the details. You’re making these extrapolations. You’re making your theories, and you have to do that in order to create these languages. In some ways, even though you weren’t a fan of this before, you are now the fan of this show.

DP: Yeah. If you look at everything that occurs on this show almost as a prop, language is different from any other prop. When you meet an actor like Charles Dance, he’s not Tywin Lannister. He’s his own man. He’s a different dude. What he needs to do is he needs to be Tywin Lannister for every moment that he’s on the screen.

about the Witcher 3 remember why they cast Charles :

1°)"Charles Dance is the perfect candidate to play the mighty Nilfgaardian emperor in our upcoming title. It’s a dream come true for the team here at RED to be able to work with such an accomplished actor and magnetic personality," said Marcin Blacha, Lead Writer for the title.

2°)Peter Gelencser , designer about The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
Could you talk a little about Charles Dance?
[laughs] Yeah, I’m still collecting my jaws from the floor. Because I learned that just like you did. I think I stumbled upon it on some of my colleagues’ Facebook posts, saying we have Charles Dunce. And I’m thinking ‘why’s that familiar?’ … Okay, okay, Game of Thrones and all that. [laughs]

His character in the game isn’t exactly similar to Tywin Lannister.
The actor has a rich voice, vocal character, per se. That’s an inspiration for us and the character is going to be an inspiration for him. And the amalgamation of these two is going to result in something unique yet familiar. We have chosen him for a reason. Personal opinion, of course.

9 – Charles Dance will be the Nilfgaardian emperor in the game. How did that come about? What traits did he bring to the game that another actor may not have been able to? Are there many Game of Thrones fans on the team?
When we were doing research on potential candidates to voice Emhyr var Emreis, Mr. Dance was always someone who came to mind. Each group of people that was consulted on the matter somehow ended up saying that we should try to reach out to him. So… we did. And he agreed to lend us his voice. As for the specific traits of his voice, what I personally like is its commanding tone. You hear a sentence and you immediately treat it as an order. This and the beautiful accent make him a splendid Emhyr! As for Game of Thrones, it’s a great show and it has a lot of fans in the studio.

Charles in the cast of Michiel de Ruyter

http://www.pzc.nl/regio/zeeuws-nieuws/charles-dance-krijgt-rol-in-michiel-de-ruyter-1.4391171

"Michiel de Ruyter (1607-1676) was one of the largest and passionate innovators in combat engineering and therefore he became a naval hero in Holland. As the deeply torn Netherlands is attacked from all sides and on the verge of civil war, one man tries to fight for the interests of the country: Michiel de Ruyter. But in the eyes of those in power, his successes make him too popular and Michiel was sent on a deadly mission"
