Let the cryptic and not-at-all-reassuring hints about the Game of Thrones finale continue…
Ever since it was announced that Game of Thrones would only be airing its eighth and final season in 2019, fans have been hungry for hints as to what is in store.
And while the cast has been sworn to secrecy over what exactly is happening in the plot, many have begun to share their feelings on the end of the HBO fantasy series.
The latest Thrones star to spill the beans on his feelings post-finale is Iain Glen, who has played Ser Jorah Mormont since season one.
With the series set to return at some point in 2019, the actor admits that the script for the series finale was “rather brilliant” when he first read it – but it probably won’t please everyone.
He told the Indian Express:
“When I read it, I thought it was rather brilliant. I am a bit of a fan of the series as well, and it satiated my expectation and hopes, I felt [it was the] conclusion…
“But we will just have to see.
“You know with something this big like Game of Thrones, you cannot please everyone…
“All I can say is that we will be doing what we have done before and the writers have written great episodes.
“They have had a great strike rate up to now and I am sure that will continue.”
“We will have to see” isn’t the re-assuring “No, all your favourites aren’t going to die’ that we were hoping for, but we’ll take it.
