“Game of Thrones” Ed Sheeran will appear in season 7

Apart from Sheeran, stars like Snow Patrol’s Gary Lightbody, Coldplay’s Will Champion, Mastodon, and Sigur Ros made cameos.

The Suffolk singer had been booked as a surprise for Maisie Williams, who plays Ayra Stark in the show.

Entertainment Weekly reports British songwriter and musician Ed Sheeran, best known for singing multiple annoyingly catchy songs that won’t escape your head, will cameo in the show’s upcoming eighth season.

Dan and David admitted they’d been trying to book the “Shape of You” singer for a while due to Game of Thrones actress Maisie Williams being a massive fan, and now it looks like they finally have him.

Speaking at the festival, Benioff said: ‘We have a 140 page outline for what’s only going to be six episodes for the final season’.

Let’s backtrack to back when the news first came out that showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss were planning to have a season 7 that lasted for only seven episodes. Other music stars have guested in the show, but never anyone of the stature of Sheeran who appeared to confirm the news on his Twitter feed.

While we can not wait to see Ed acting alongside Maisie, and if he would be a victim of the show’s grisly deaths, now, his fans who have yet to watch Game of Thrones surely have more reason to start watching the series. “I’m still waiting on Bieber”, she said, referencing Justin Bieber.

Well, considering the nature of Game of Thrones, and the typical brutality when it comes to killing off characters, it’s likely that Sheeran’s role is not long for this earth.

Rumors no more, reckoning about how many episodes will be there for the “Game of Thrones” Season 7 was already answered. However, some fans believe White Walkers will become a greater threat in Season 7. Even in Westeros. In recent Game of Thrones season 7 news, the 26-year-old Grammy Award victor is confirmed of starring in the hit HBO TV series.
