2. HILLARY CLINTON WRITES JASON SEGEL A CO-STAR REJECTION LETTER
“I was delighted to read about your interest in sharing the big screen with me. As you can imagine, I am a little occupied at the moment, but perhaps someday I can help you forget Sarah Marshall … again.

He obviously wasn’t paying attention to the other characters — and needs to remember that “heroine” is also a word. In the George R. R. Martin “A Song of Ice and Fire” series upon which “Game of Thrones” is based the author created characters that transcend traditional archetypes and are deeply layered and malleable.
