Is it just us, or is the Game of Thrones withdrawal really setting in without any new episodes this year?
The cast wrapped up filming a while ago, so they all know what is going down in the final season, and seem to be enjoying teasing us about what we can expect.
In a lengthy interview with Vulture about his new film, My Weekend with Hervé, Peter Dinklage was asked where his character Tyrion Lannister will be left once the final credits roll.
He said: "I feel very, very... I'm trying to find the right word. I think he was given a very good conclusion. No matter what that is — death can be a great way out."
What a tease! No we're going to spend all season thinking if this will be where Tyrion bites the bucket. Unless he's referring to someone else's death, perhaps by his hand? Argh, this is making the wait even worse!
Speaking about the final days of filming, Dinklage said: "It's always anticlimactic for the character's last day.
What to Read Next
"Nothing is shot chronologically, so you don't get some big mountain-top scene or anything. It's just, 'That's a wrap on Peter Dinklage.'
"But as anticlimactic as it was, my last day was also beautifully bittersweet. A lot of people whom I love were on set that day. Even if they weren't working, they came to set, which was beautiful. I tried to do the same thing when other actors were wrapping out.
"I won't say their name or their character's name, but one of the young people on the show wrapped this past season and everybody was a wreck. This person had grown up on the show, you know?
"They were a child and now they were an adult. And then they're done. It's like we were witnessing this person saying goodbye to their childhood."
Game of Thrones season 8 will premiere in 2019. The show airs on HBO in the US and Sky Atlantic and NOW TV in the UK. Season 7 is now available to buy on DVD, Blu-ray or digital download.
