Lena Headey was "kind of gutted" with how Cersei died in Game of Thrones
One death didn&rsquo♑;t sit right in Game of Thrones season 8

The fallout from 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Game of Thrones season 8 still hasn’t passed. In fact, one of its most controversial deaths still has certain tongues wagging – including the actress who befell the brick-filled fate. That’s right: Lena Headey has opened up for the first time about Cersei’s demise and, frankly, it’s something she felt c🐻ould have been handled a little dif🌃ferently.
“I’ve got a few of my own gripes,” Headey candidly reveals to . “But I haven’t sat down drunkenly with [showrunners] D♏avid [Benioff] and Dan [Weiss] yet.”
So, what would Cersei’s actress be up in arms about over a few glasses of wine? Surely not the lack of elephants?! No, it’s as you might have suspected: He𝓰r character’s demise. After all, Cersei bowed out in the most unceremonious of ways. The then-Queen of Westeros doesn’t get a knife to her back, nor is she poisoned by Arya in a crowd-pleasing twist. Instead, she embraces her brother/love of her life Jaime, and they both perish underneath the crumbling ruins of King’s Landing.
Af♔ter that, it’s no surprise to find out Headey wanted &ld🌄quo;a better death.” Headey explains her reasoning by saying, “Obviously you dream of your death. You could go in any way on that show. So I was kind of gutted.”
However, Headey isn’t coming out swinging – and even defends the Game of Thrones showrunners: “I just think they couldn&🌜rsquo;t have pleased everyone. No matter what they did, I thinওk there was going to be some big comedown from the climb.”
So, while Lena Headey doesn’t come down on Game of Thrones season 8 like a tonne of bricks, there are certainly things she maybe would’ve done differently. A different death for one thing &👍ndash; but no word about those elephants.
Still not over the finale? Same. Here are some of the biggest questions we had after watching the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Game of Thrones ending.
