Clarke also spoke about the final moments of her character, who was killed by Jon Snow in the finale. "It was a f---ing struggle reading the scripts," Clarke said. "What I was taught at drama school - and I've only ever done one job since I left, which is Game of Thrones - is that your character is right. Your character makes a choice and you need to be right with that."
Kit Harington
Kit Harington, who played Jon Snow, seemed to be at peace with the ending of the show. In an interview with Esquire, Harington said, "I'm happy with the way it ended," but he admitted that the final season was also "hard" for him.
"It was such an intense season," Harington said. "It was like having a baby. It was really hard, but I think it was the right way to end it."
Sophie Turner
Sophie Turner, who played Sansa Stark, had mixed feelings about the final season as well. In an interview with The New York Times, Turner said that she was "happy with the way the show ended," but she also had some criticisms.
"I think a lot of fans were pissed," Turner said. "But I think it was just because it was heartbreaking that it ended, and I don't think they were ready for it to end."
Nikolaj Coster-Waldau
Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, who played Jaime Lannister, had a lot of praise for the final season. In an interview with IndieWire, Coster-Waldau called the final season "really great," and he praised the show's creators, David Benioff and D.B. Weiss, for their work on the show.
"I think they did a fantastic job finishing it off," Coster-Waldau said. "It was a very, very complicated storyline, and they managed to pull it off brilliantly."
Lena Headey
Lena Headey, who played Cersei Lannister, had a few criticisms of the final season. In an interview with The Guardian, Headey said that she "wanted a better death" for her character.
"I was kind of gutted," Headey said. "But I just think they couldn't have pleased everyone. No matter what they did, I think there was going to be some big comedown from the climb."/p>
