If you thought Games of Thrones’ Cersei was vicious before — and let’s be real, ofcourse you did — just wait until Season 7, the HBO series creators David Benioff and D.B. Weiss tell our sister site Deadline.

“While [she] has certainly done a lot of horrible things in her life and she could be a very cruel person, the one thing that was redemptive about her was, she genuinely loved her children,” notes Weiss. “Now they’re all gone, and I think that is very interesting for us. Who is she without her children? The answer is something you’ll find out next season.”

The EPs point out that Tommen’s untimely demise is, at least in part, his mother’s fault: If The Mountain hadn’t been doing her bidding with Septa Unella, after all, he would’ve been looking after her son and, thus, able to prevent his suicide.

“We had intended [to make that] connection,” says Benioff. “If she had been more focused on her family, and less on enjoying her revenge on someone who had done her wrong, then Tommen’s suicide probably never would have happened.”



As if Sunday’s crazy-town Game of Thrones finale didn’t serve as enough confirmation, HBO’s dragons-and-drama juggernaut is nearing the finish line. And no amount of pressure — public, presidential, or otherwise — will change that, according to exec producers David Benioff and D.B. Weiss.

In an interview with Deadline, the pair were asked about the possibility of continuing the still-wildly-popular series — which counts President Obama among its fans — beyond the previously-announced 13-episode split-season swan song. “Like President Obama, we want to leave while all the people watching this show are really into it,” responded Weiss. “Get out at a high point and not have it be, well, ‘Thank God that’s over.'”

Benioff added that the decision to wind things down is “not just [about] trying not to outstay [our] welcome,” adding, “We’re trying to tell one cohesive story with a beginning, middle and end… We’ve known the end for quite some time and we’re hurtling towards it. Those last images from [Sunday’s finale] showed that. Daenerys is finally coming back to Westeros, Jon Snow is king of the North, and Cersei is sitting on the Iron Throne. And we know the Night King is up there, waiting for all of them. The pieces are on the board now… and we are heading toward the end game.”

The EP went on to explain that GoT was never intended to be “an ongoing show, where every season [we’re] trying to figure out new storylines. We wanted it to be one giant story, without padding it out to add an extra 10 hours, or because people are still watching it. We wanted to something where, if people watched it end to end, it would make sense as one continuous story. We’re definitely heading into the end game now.”

My guess is next year will be mostly Dany & Tyrion vs Cersei & Jaime(can't wait to see the :ohhh: On their faces when they see Tyrion not only survived but is a major player in the big game) and northern politics. I think littlefinger is gonna cuz some big fukkery in light off his first full on L. I think the others won't come hard--pause--until the final season in which every ep will focus on the big war.

I also thinks GRRM doesn't finish Winds in the meantime. Dude is relishing his fame too much I only pray that he lives long after the show wraps up and his "stardom" dwindles so that he can actually sit and write again.

Oh btw...never made it official but #starkset all day. And to you targs looking thirsty to claim him just know that this Targaryen is riding awfully hard for the Starks.
