“Quite honestly, I have never been told the future of things in this show, but this is the one time I have,” Kit told EW. “They sat me down and said, ‘This is how it is.’ If anything in the future is not like that, then I don’t know about it—it’s only in David [Benioff] and Dan [Weiss] and George [R.R. Martin]‘s heads. But I’ve been told I’m dead. I’m dead. I’m not coming back next season. So that’s all I can tell you, really.”
Kit added, “I got a big wrap and, like any of the actors who die on Thrones, I just wanted to f-ck off out of there — I got a tear in my eye. I was more moved and emotional than I thought I’d be.”
