Our watch has ended and now the offseason begins. It's time to follow the production and gather all the info we can about S7, and in this thread we're focusing on the cast.
We lost quite a few series regulars this season:
Jonathan Pryce Natalie Dormer Dean Charles-Chapman Michael McElhatton Iwan Rheon Tom Wlaschiha (alive, but unlikely to return) Michiel Huisman (alive, but unlikely to return)
So who's going to be elevated to main cast to replace? Could there be new characters next season joining the show as main cast straight away?
My guesses for main cast in S7:
Pilou Asbæk Gemma Whelan Anton Lesser
That's all I can think of, so there are still many vacant spots left. Maybe the actor playing the Night King could become main cast? I don't know. I can't think of any major new characters being introduced next season either. Any ideas?

I think Lyanna Mormont, Wyman Manderly, Cley Cerwyn, and Robett Glover are all definitely coming back. I don't think they'll be promoted, but I wouldn't be surprised if they are all in more than a few episodes.

Anton Lesser and Gemma Whelan are probably most likely to join the main cast, I'd say.

I'm sure who ever plays the Arch Maester will have a significant role.

Whelan, Asbæk, and maybe Lesser will become main cast members, I'd say.
I think Jaqen will return.

What character from the books and yet to appear in the show can we expect in Season 7? On the top of my mind, I'd say that Howland Reed and Archmaster Marwyn have the better odds.

I'd say those two (mainly Marwyn) are the most likely to appear, but I think with the purge of a season we've had and the show winding down, we won't be getting many new characters (at least not anyone significant)

He was name dropped in the finale, so I'm confident we'll see him next season.

I think we could also see Joe Dempsie come back to the main cast next season. They have to explain what's going on in the Stormlands. When Tommen was king we could at least assume that the Stormlands were behind him as he was a "Baratheon", but now, with no Baratheons left and a full Lannister on the throne, there's a big vacuum of power there. We wondered how Gendry could be legitimized as there's no one who would do it for him, but he knows he's a Baratheon, Mel knows, and Arya would believe him if he claimed to be one.
I think we could see Arya and Gendry rejoining the BwB as they head North, meeting halfway through with Mel and then joining King Jon, who would have the authority to legitimize him. This way, Arya could convince Jon to legitimize him and House Baratheon would be reborn, maybe not as kings but as lords of Storm's End at least. He's the only main cast character who has yet to return, and I'm sure he still has a role to play.

There'll be some question of how to get the Stormlands on-side and voila, he'll have had him tucked away somewhere back around when Gendry got back to KL and before Varys left. Then Dany can legitimize him and then the Stormlands are in play.

There's also the chance of Jorah and Jaqen appearing in Oldtown. I did wonder if they'd introduce a Taena of Myr/Aurane Waters type character in King's Landing, but now that Jaime and Bronn are back and Qyburn and Gregor are still there with Unella as an experiment, I think Cersei has enough characters to interact with until Dany arrives.

I don't think Gendry is ever coming back...
