An Assortment of the Most Interesting Things Said at theGame of ThronesComic-Con Panel

This year ’s Game of Thrones Comic - Con control panel was passably unique . In past yr , the season is usually over by July so the panel mainly looks back . This yr , though , with the current season just start out , there was n’t much the panel could talk about or show . So it became a pretty free - flowing , all - over - the - place conversation — with a noteworhy moments .

Kristian Nairn , a.k.a . Hodor , was the moderator and he give-up the ghost through a series of prewritten questions for the thespian on hand , which did not let in Maisie Williams ( Arya ) , Peter Dinklage ( Tyrion ) , Kit Harrington ( Jon Snow ) , Emilia Clarke ( Daenerys ) , Nikolaj Coster - Waldau ( Jaime ) , or Lena Headey ( Cersei ) . On hand , however , were Gwendoline Christie ( Brienne ) , Sophie Turner ( Sansa Stark ) , Liam Cunningham ( Davos ) , Alfie Allen ( Theon ) , John Bradley , Nathalie Emmanuel ( Missandei ) , Issac Hempstead - Wright ( Bran ) , Conleth Hill ( Varys ) and Jacob Anderson ( Grey Worm ) , and they all verbalise about a bunch of different things . Here are the most interesting things they said :

• Sophie Turner was asked if she thinks Sansa is being manipulated by Littlefinger . She said that perhaps at one point she was but , by now , she ’s been around so many devious people , she ’s just as good as at manipulating citizenry as he is .

• Christie said that the reasonableness Brienne is so loyal to the Starks is that in Catelyn Stark , she go out genuine strength in a woman . When the fictitious character contact , Brienne clear she did n’t have to be masculine to be taken earnestly , she could “ be propelled by her own sense of what is ripe . ” So , by avail the Stark girls , Brienne is “ connect to an mind that ’s with child than herself . ”

• “ She ’s stir up now , guys . She ’s veridical woke , ” was Turner ’s joking response while blab out about Sansa ’s current world views . Turner thinks her character is done with any material romantic love life because of all she ’s been through and is probably incapable of entrust anyone . “ Which is important when you play the Game of Thrones , ” she added .

• John Bradley explained that Sam is at the Citadel alone for the purpose of aiding his friend Jon Snow . Bradley thinks Sam wishes he could stand shoulder to shoulder with Snow in war , but knows he ca n’t . So , alternatively , he kick the bucket to the Citadel to witness any sort of information that would help Jon succeed his state of war . “ The Citadel is his battlefield , ” Bradley said .

• Much was made of the crush Tormund has for Brienne and Christie say she does n’t think Brienne like it too much . She finds it inapt but , does n’t deny there ’s some “ likely secret enjoyment ” in it . She may end up like him or , according to Christie , she may still care someone else .

• The whole cast was asked which dead fictitious character they ’d like to bring back and the best answers were from Sophie Turner and John Bradley . Turner said Joffrey because she bed turn with role player Jack Gleeson — Joffrey — so much , an reply which got showered with raspberry . And Bradley said he bid they never pour down Jon Snow because then they would n’t have had to blab out about it every five second for a whole twelvemonth .

• Finally , Turner was asked about her relationship with Jon . She could n’t say much as it will obviously be a adult part of the current season . What she would say was her character is unquestionably spoil by the sexism of the culture and go for Jon realizes how much better she is at the political side of ruling than he is . He ’s the military man , she ’s the politico , and Turner hopes they can each use their best traits .
