The cast of Game of Thrones have gotten so skilled at torturing us with information about Season 6 that I’m beginning to think that they’ve all been taking lessons from Ramsay Bolton.

Hairstyles, new locations and a fresh chapter from ‘The Winds of Winter‘ have all led fans to speculate about what’s in store but the Mother of Dragons has been the most vocal so far, especially about ‘that’ character.

We know that Emilia Clarke is in Belfast as seen by her Instagram post but she has also had a lot to say regarding the pacing for Season 6.

Speaking with the Los Angeles Times she said, “Oooooh there’s so much in store for her. I’m saying that obviously because I’ve read the script for next season. Muwah ha ha! I know stories. It’s really exciting”.

One of the criticisms of the most recent season is that it took a long time to find its rhythm but Clarke has allayed any fears of this happening again. “Next season, I’ve said this before, but there’s a lot of season where you need to (rightly so) kind of need to set the scene. And you have a couple of episodes where you’re like, “OK, feeding information, I get it. We’re finding out about this person. And we know about that person. And oh, there’s that person.But this season coming up, that we’re about to film, there’s none of that. It’s just go, go, go, go. Shocking moment to shocking moment. Epic moment to epic moment. It’s mental; it’s epic. And definitely Dany’s a part of it.
