‘Game of Thrones’ cast dodges Jon Snow, controversy questions at Comic-Con
The ominous trap-setting group teased last season called the Wolves will also be returning, possibly “in a way that you don’t expect”, said Gimple.
“Christie also spoke about her character’s treatment on the show, and defined it as modern and powerful”. Hill hasn’t read the Game of Thrones books, so he’s been happy in the past that he didn’t know beforehand what was going to happen when he was playing his character. What is the level of secrecy on set and between the cast? “To be perfectly honest, honey, a lot of us here at the table are in the same position as you guys and I don’t have an effing clue what will happen”, Dormer told him. Almost every last season episode is longer than previous episodes of the season by about a minute or two. What fun banter did the cast drop? Many new characters are expected to be introduced next year, but the producers haven’t announced the names of the actors who have been cast.
CLICK: Maisie Williams says the worst Game of Thrones death was… In the finale, she only wore the contacts for one shot and they were very uncomfortable. “I thought I was going to be sent to Guantanamo or something, but fortunately I’m here – but he’s dead”.
Sophie Turner, who has said Sansa’s rape scene was an interesting scene to play: “There’s one thing Sansa still is, and that’s strong“. Cunningham said, “If she had waited for the candle, I’d still have a boss” – which somewhat settles any lingering question about Stannis’ survival. “You’ll have to ask [producers] why they focused [the camera] on Theon, because I was great“.
“She’s been getting by without doing anything really radical because that could change her situations”, Turner continued. She could die. With the Boltons, that’s a big risk to take. “Sansa could’ve fought back but she chose not to”. Fame from the show came to her gradually, so it was good for her to ease into it. Fan attention is wonderful but can be overwhelming. “She’s one of those characters who does her scheming in her mind, rather than outwardly”.
As for Sawmill Tarley, John Bradley says Sawmill would be “happy to accept more of the same, when it comes to his recent romance. But now I’ve met so many other people and I’ve realized that’s very normal, everyone felt that weird segregation at some point”.
Seth Meyers moderated. No streaming of the panel was allowed per Comic-Con. One job!” Christie responds “I stood in one place for weeks! “Give me a break!”
Third, there’s the ongoing matter of Kit Harington’s hair.
Based on Meyers’ question to the audience, most in attendance were fans from the show, and less the books.
He shared his answer to Mr Obama with the audience – “Mr President, Jon Snow is deader than dead”.
