Lena Headey is basically the only person still rooting for Cersei Lannister on ‘Game of Thrones’

TwitterFacebook

Sure, Cersei blew up half of King’s Landing, forced Ellaria Sand to watch her own daughter rot, tortured Tyrion well into adulthood, and committed a dozen other heinous crimes—but Lena Headey still has her back.

In an interview with Jimmy Kimmel on Thursday night, the Game of Thrones star confirmed that she remains firmly on Team Lannister heading into the series’ final episodes. 

“I’m gonna be honest, I’m not rooting for your character,” Kimmel said. “Are you rooting for her?” 

“Someone has to,” Headey retorted. 

Honestly? Fair. Check out the entire interview to catch up on details from Headey regarding the cast’s final goodbyes, the fate of Cersei’s “turnip” wig, Headey’s next big project, and more. Read more…

‘Game of Thrones’ villains, ranked by how justified their actions are

It’s Villain Week here at Mashable. In honor of the release of Venom, we’re celebrating all our favorite evildoers from film and TV all week long. Spooky, scary!


Game of Thrones is a franchise full of horror and death, and lots of character are to blame for all that horror and death.

But author George R. R. Martin has stated on numerous occasions that he wrote the fantasy series to deliberately subvert the genre tropes of “good vs. evil.” All his characters, including most of his protagonists, are not all good nor all bad. They are human, falling somewhere in the gradient of the grey moral area between the two. Read more…

‘Game of Thrones’ set images could foreshadow a new ruler of Westeros

TwitterFacebook

As filming on Season 8 Game of Thrones comes to an end, fans continue to scour the sets for clues on what lies ahead for Westeros. After all, these final weeks of shooting are our last chance to ever gleam information about the final season from behind-the-scenes leaks. 

The latest fan images captured a drastic change to a central and important set. It could spell out  something huge — or it could be a whole lot of nothing. 

We’re entering full-on tinfoil speculation territory, but isn’t that half the fun of Game of Thrones?

For months now, all eyes have been on Titanic Studios in Belfast. After spending nearly a year building an enormous King’s Landing set on the backlot, we’ve seen evidence of it burning (from friendly dragonfire or undead dragon fire?) and one tantalizing glimpse at a never-before-seen wing of the the Red Keep.

Gendry confirms he’ll be at ‘Game of Thrones’ climax and that’s huge

TwitterFacebook

All that rowing seems to have paid off for Gendry — and we don’t just mean because of his beefy upper body muscles.

The actor behind the blacksmith-turned-magic-king-blooded-bastard Joe Dempsie confirmed in an interview with Digital Spy that he’ll have a bigger role to play in the final season of Game of Thrones. Most tantalizingly, he said Gendry will be there at the final climax (though that doesn’t mean he’ll survive it).

That could mean a lot of different and hugely important things for the final plot of Game of Thrones, Season 8, according to many theorists. Read more…

New ‘Game of Thrones’ info hints at the bleak fate of King’s Landing

Ah: the map room. Watching Cersei arrogantly tramping over the seven kingdoms of Westeros in the Red Keep’s courtyard was perhaps the most apt metaphor for her rise to power.
We left Cersei in Season 7 with her armies in shambles, the imminent threat…
