this is where lyra meets lord faa.......... u can see she is a little nervouse and staring to look at his tattoos........

Wow! He's so big and powerful no wonder she looks nervous! Love the tatoos! :)

this must be lord faa but why is he named as farder coram in the captions? did they take john faa out of the film?

If they did, I'm gonna be mad!

I think he's Lord Faa, I saw a picture of Farder Coram on another site. Anyway I think he's the one on the far left of the picture with all the Gyptians.

I would think it would be more Lyra to look directly into his face. Oh well.

She probably will in a minute. She is probably just so intrigued by the tatoo on his hand!! Remeber, although she is the wild untameable Lyra we all love, she has been brought up in a college of scholars her entire life and has never seen anything like the huge man she see's before her. I doubt she has ever seen a tatto before either, unless when the master gave her the alethiometer he sneakily showed her the tatoo of his Daemon on his rump and it just wasn't mentioned in the book!!! lol.

*Remember

um...Daemon tatoo on his rump...is that in the adult version! Only joking.

Lol so was I!! but it would be funny if the master actually did have a tatoo of his Daemon on his Butt!!!

It says "Lyra and Farder Coram", but this is John Faa.

I'd pay to see that, Lyra at heart! (Again, joking!)

I had imagine him being more older and slinner with grayer hair.

nice tattoos...he looks like a king of the vikings! if they had kings...

Maybe they did. They might have just had different names.

But weren't vikings nomadic?

OMG! her hair looks exactly like mine in this shot!

Coram is supposed to be really bony and old.

Isn't that John Faa? I think the title is a mistake.

I love this pic soooo much!!! John Faa looks the spitting image of how imagined him and Lyra looks like someone has just been in to my mind and plucked her out because her clothes, her hair and her expression that is intrigued curious and overwhelmed but trying to hide it and look in control is absolutely superb! Dakota Blue Richards IS Lyra!!!

I REALLY CANT WAIT FOR THE FILM! IM IN A FEW SCENEZ AND IVE SEEN BITS OF THEM IN THE TRAILER BUT I WANT THE FILM NOW!

LOL WELL DONE DAKOTA LUFYHOO LOADS XX

I'm very excited and relieved that Dakota does indeed have a pretty good sense of how to act like Lyra whether she is naturally like her or not. I've only seen her in the trailer though obviously and these pictures, but it's looking good. =]

Hey Claire, which scenes are you in? Then we can look out for you in them!! Have you got any lines?

I have.

Yeah, I thought it was going to be kind of pointless, but it was really interesting and significant. And I also really liked the map and all those sections of ads and whatnot "from another world" included in the book. Did you notice that in the Books on travel, one was written by Marisa Coulter?

It's okay, we weren't talking about the actual story. Just some little extra stuff they put in there.

Another book? LOL! I never knew! What's it called?

And another one about Lee and Iorek, he's written that one already but I'm not sure when its released.
