The closer we get to Game of Thrones Season 6, the more interviews from cast and crew members we’ll see. As Natalie Dormer says in a recent interview with E! News, “April, guys. Hold on, just hold on.”
Given that her horror movie The Forest opens this weekend, Dormer has been hitting the interview circuit extra hard lately, but let’s look at what Danish actor Pilot Asbæk had to say to Digital Spy first. In Season 6, Asbæk will play Euron Greyjoy, a vital character from A Feast for Crows, Theon’s uncle, and a first-rate nutjob. Euron is violent, megalomaniacal, and quite possibly insane, but Asbæk seems like a sweet guy.
“I must say, I’m a big fan of the work that Dan [Weiss] and David [Benioff] have created with Game of Thrones, and George [RR Martin] the writer, of course,” Asbæk said. “It was great fun being part of a TV series that I’d been a fan of for five years. I’ve been watching it every single Monday when with my wife. It was like a ritual – every Monday night on HBO Nordic, we would watch Game of Thrones together.”
However, now that he’s actually on the show, he thinks he’ll stop watching it. “For me, it’s still magical, y’know? It becomes too real when you watch yourself on-screen.” I guess that’s kind of the acting equivalent of not wanting to hear yourself on your outgoing voice message.
On to Dormer: she stopped by The Nerdist to and dropped a few hints regarding what Margaery’ll be up to in Season 6. Dormer doesn’t show up until the end of the first video, but is the focus of the second. Be warned: SPOILERS ahead.
“She’s desperately trying to get out of that jail cell,” Dormer says of Margaery’s Season 6 experiences in the second video. “It’s interesting because you see this side of Margaery that you haven’t seen before…you see her a little bit broken. That’s probably verging on a bit of a spoiler alert. You do genuinely see her broken. We’ve been waiting many years to see the chinks in Margaery’s armor. You see them.”
Well, that’s ominous. We know that Margaery will get out of her jail cell somewhere in the middle of the season, and that she claims to have undergone a religious conversion. Based on comments from Dormer, we’ve assumed that the conversion was a put-on, but if the character has truly been “broken,” maybe there’s more to it than that.
Dormer continued blazing the interview trail when she sat down with E!
“I can tell you that Margaery’s problem is not Cersei anymore,” Dormer says. “That is kind of a spoiler. I don’t think I’ve said that yet.”
