'Game of Thrones' Star Maisie Williams Hints HBO Exec Lied About Filming Multiple Endings
"Game of Thrones" character, Arya Stark: The 20-year-old actress implied in a televised interview that HBO's programming president, Casey Bloys, lied about the show filming multiple endings.
Williams was a guest on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" on Wednesday night when the late-night host asked her about Bloys having said they'd shoot more than one conclusion to the series as a way to keep spoiler-happy fans off track.
"Well, I heard this and I immediately thought, 'I don't think we've got the budget to shoot lots of different endings,'" she said.
Kimmel responded, "Well, he's the president, so he would know if you have the money or not."
Williams had a trump card for him, though.
"But, as we know, sometimes presidents don't always tell the truth," she said, making Kimmel laugh and acknowledge her point.
While we don't know if we can trust either Bloys or Williams to be truthful with us regarding Season 8, we are inclined to put our faith in the actress. She did admit to showing her mom the final scripts, which is against the rules, after all.
After this interview, Williams might be in hot water with Bloys.
"Game of Thrones" Season 8 is coming in 2019.
