Some Game of Thrones fans mightn’t be overly happy at the simplistic description of the show. (Possible spoilers ahead)
Actor Ian McShane, who only recently joined the cast of the hit TV show, has been quite outspoken in recent weeks as anticipation continues to build for the return of Tyrion and co.
McShane recently dropped a major spoiler that his character will be a priest in the show,and that… *cue dramatic music* he will bring back a once dead fan-favourite (we don’t think it’s Jon Snow though).
In a interview with The Telegraph, McShane claimed, “You say the slightest thing and the internet goes ape. I was accused of giving the plot away, but I just think get a f***ing life. It’s only tits and dragons.”
After telling some fans of the show that they need to “get a f***king life”, McShane also revealed another possible spoiler for the up coming series.
“They asked me if I wanted to do Game of Thrones and I said, ‘Sure, I’ll be able to see my old pals Charlie Dance (Tywin Lannister) and Stephen Dilate (Stannis Baratheon)’ and they said, ‘No, we’ve killed them off.’
“I wasn’t sure whether I could commit, but then they said it would only be for one episode, so I said, ‘So that means I must die at the end of it. Great, I’m in.’ ”
Anyone who has read the books of George R.R. Martin will suspect that McShane will play the role of the Elder Brother and will appear for one episode where he will bring The Hound back to life.*
*We would like to add that this is simply guesswork and by no means set in stone.
