What’s the first word you think of when you hear the term Game of Thrones? Epic? Dragon? Red? Wedding? For many, the first word is “bloody” or maybe “death.” The HBO saga has a storied history of gory battle scenes and extravagant death counts, and according to actress Sophie Turner, the show isn’t slowing down for its final season. If anything, it’s doubling down on the action.
During a recent interview with Gold Derby, Turner provided Thrones fans with an enthralling teaser for Season 8.
“I can tell you that there’s definitely a coming together of people,” the actress said. “Everyone is coming together to fight the impending doom. There’s a lot of tension between these little groups, battling for what they think is right.”
Coming together to fight the impending doom? Interesting. Does that mean we can somehow expect a higher death count in the final season of this HBO saga? According to Turner, hell to the yes.
“It’s Game of Thrones, so it’s going to be bloodier and more death and more emotionally torturous than all the years before.”
Bloodier? More death? More emotionally torturous?! How in the world is that even physically possible?! Sadly, we won’t have the answer to that question until next year.
The six episode final season of Game of Thrones is scheduled to premiere in 2019 on HBO.
