Nikolaj Coster-Waldau Gives Us Hope 'Game of Thrones' Finale Won't Be 'Complete' Downer
By Olivia Montine
When it comes to Game of Thrones storylines, not many things are certain. The exception to this lack of secrecy around what's going to happen next, however, lies in the fact that almost every ending is a tragic one. However, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau is giving fans hope that the ultimate end to the show won't necessarily follow this pattern.
In an interview with Modern Luxury, Coster-Waldau, who plays Jaime Lannister in the acclaimed series, stated of the finale:
"The producers did an amazing job. It’s so tricky because the world is so vast. There are so many storylines. They found the balance between the beginning and the ending. There’s very few happy endings in that world. They did a great job in not being complete downers about it, but also being true to that world."
Well, if we know anything about the world universe of Westeros, this statement makes sense. Nothing will be completely happy, but it's good to know the last season won't be completely soul-crushing, either.
We're sure there will be plenty of grim and heart-wrenching scenes, but we're hoping that some of our favorite characters will make it until the end.
In keeping with the secrecy that has always surrounded the series, not much has been released about the upcoming season. Fans will have to wait and see when Game of Thrones returns for the final time on April 14!
