8 Actors Who Spoiled The Endings To Their Own Work

6. Game Of Thrones Actors Tell Everyone They're NOT Dying

In a series like Game of Thrones, with a kill rate so high that every episode has audiences pleading to their chosen higher power that their favorite character manages to escape the icy grip of death before the credits roll, it's important that the actors involved are tight-lipped about whether they'll remain involved with the show from season to season. That's why the Game of Thrones alumni are all so cryptic when talking to interviewers about their plans for the near future. Well, besides Peter Dinklage, that is. Before Season 5 was set to premiere, Dinklage (who plays the main character, Tyrion Lannister) he let slip that he was already figuring out his shooting schedule for Season 6. That wouldn't be such a bomb to drop except that Season 5 was being hyped with ads proclaiming there's a "death you won't see coming!" So even the main character could have hypothetically gotten the axe. But Dinklage took that off the table. As did fellow principal cast member Emilia Clarke, who made the exact same casual reference to her schedule for Season 6 only a day later. It's become nearly impossible for actors to keep everything a secret, especially when they're discussing something as mundane as their shooting schedule.
