What’s in store for Game of Thrones’ final season? Recently, star Peter Dinklage spoke with Variety about the eighth and last season of the HBO TV show.
Dinklage plays Tyrion Lannister on the hit fantasy drama, which also stars Kit Harington, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Lena Headey, Emilia Clarke, Sophie Turner, and Maisie Williams.
In the interview, Dinklage said he thinks now is the perfect time to end Game of Thrones:
It’s time. Storywise, not just for all our lives. It’s the perfect time to end it. Sometimes shows stay on a little too long, the jumping-the-shark thing.”
Later, Dinklage revealed it’ll be bittersweet to move on from the HBO series, which is half-way through filming season eight:
It’s bittersweet when it’s time to move on with everything. It’s always the sad part of our business, because you get pockets of great people for short amounts of time and then you have to move on and it’s always heartbreaking. Especially when you’ve spent more than a couple months with people.”
What do you think? Do you watch Game of Thrones? Are you excited for the final season?
Night King will kill them all and rule the world of deads.
It’s bittersweet for me as I love this show so very much. I will miss this show more than any I have watched in my lifetime. I so love the characters and the story! I know all things must come to an end but why Game of Thrones why! Seriously I wish the whole cast nothing but the best in future endeavors!
