It is impossible not to read into Peter Dinklage’s comments on the fate of Tyrion Lannister

Say it ain't so!

With at least another six months before Season 8 begins to air (or maybe not, who knows?), the plot for the finale of Game Of Thrones have been kept under lock and key and self-destructing scripts, putting it up there with Star Wars and Westworld in terms of secrecy. Fans have had a love/hate relationship with this secrecy, at once wanting to know everything so they can rip the band-aid off as soon as possible, but also wanting to know absolutely NOTHING going in so they can enjoy it fresh. If you are in the latter category, then we avoid you stop reading this article right now. Still here? Okay, on we go... Speaking to Vulture while on the press tour for his new movie My Dinner With Herve (co-starring our own Jamie Dornan), Pter Dinklage let loose this description which... doesn't bode terribly well: "I feel very, very - I’m trying to find the right word. I think he was given a very good conclusion. No matter what that is - death can be a great way out." Now, to be fair, that doesn't confirm that Tyrion is for certain going to bite the bullet (or the dragon tooth, or whatever) before the final episode, but it certainly does sound more than a little foreboding for our favourite Lannister. Meanwhile, when he was asked about what filming his final scene for the near-decade-long series was like, he said it was a little anticlimactic, just like it is on most films and TV shows: "Nothing is shot chronologically, so you don’t get some big mountaintop scene or anything. It’s just, 'That’s a wrap on Peter Dinklage. But as anticlimactic as it was, my last day was also beautifully bittersweet. "A lot of people whom I love were on set that day. Even if they weren’t working, they came to set, which was beautiful. I tried to do the same thing when other [Game of Thrones] actors were wrapping out." Awwwwh... Sounds like one big happy family! Imagine the wrap parties! Meanwhile, fans of Dinklage can check him out in the new HBO feature My Dinner With Herve, which is released on Saturday 20 October.
