'Game of Thrones' Star Natalie Dormer discusses what fans can expect on Season 6, especially on Jon Snow's, Cersei's and her character Margaery Tyrell's fates. Whether Jon Snow died on the last season of "Game of Thrones" continues to plague many up until now. With the new season around the corner, cast Natalie Dormer reassured fans that they soon will know the answer.
Dormer, who plays Margaery Tyrell of the hit HBO show, told Kit Harrington's fans that the long wait will soon be over. They are going to finally find out if Harrington's character really bit the dust. Speaking with E News as she promoted her new movie "The Forest," the actress told fans to just hold on. "We're getting closer and closer," she stated. "We're months away now, as opposed to half a year ago when the questions started being asked, so the end's in sight. April, guys. Hold on, just hold on."
Fans will probably not be happy that she did not really offer anything to stem their intense curiosity over Snow's fate, but Dormer tried to make up for this by hinting at the fate of her own character on the upcoming season. She shared that Margaery's main problem will not be Cersei anymore. This is a big thing to divulge, considering that the last time fans of the show saw her, Margaery was imprisoned along with her brother Loras under the instructions of Cersei. If Cersei is not her main problem anymore, it could mean something would befall Cersei.
This is not the only time that Dormer spoke of the upcoming season. She also sat down with Jimmy Kimmel and shared how the series is affected by the delay of George R.R. Martin's sixth book.
According to the actress, even though they all knew that something big can affect the series now that it is getting way ahead of the book, fans should not worry because the writer still has a lot of input on the series. According to her, showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss prepared for this circumstance by holding meetings constantly with the author to discuss how to go about the show so that it would still end up being somewhat similar to the books in the end.
"They sat down and had a big powwow with George a couple of years ago in case of this eventuality," Dormer told Kimmel. "Maybe A to B, they go off on slightly different tangents, but B is still B."
Regardless of these talks and agreements, Dormer added that fans certainly can expect that the new season will introduce big changes.
