Since there's only a few weeks left until “Game of Thrones” returns, many are wondering which characters are going to die before the end of the show. To tide everyone over, actor Iain Glen teased his character’s fate -- Ser Jorah Mormont -- and what to possibly expect in Season 7.
Ser Jorah Mormont, who was originally working as a spy for Varys (Conleth Hill), was last seen leaving Queen Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke) as he embarked on his own new quest – to find a cure to the deadly greyscale disease. But if he fails to find a cure, he would kill himself before becoming one of the stone men. Just like many viewers, Glen hopes Ser Jorah Mormont finds a way to survive.
However, if showrunners David Benioff and D. B. Weiss decide to kill off his character, he would gladly accept his fate.
“I definitely want to hang in there, yeah, but I think everyone does,” Glen said in a recent interview with Raidió Teilifís Éireann, as cited by Winter Is Coming. “But even if I’m for the chop very shortly I would feel like I did pretty good. I survived pretty long.”
What to expect from ‘Game of Thrones’ Season 7
Also, Iain Glen is confident that “Game of Thrones” Season 7 will be the best one yet. He teased that the upcoming season definitely feels like the start of the endgame, adding that the evolving drama and relationships are as good as they have ever been.
In the next season, an intense battle between Jon Snow (Kit Harington) and the White Walkers is expected to take place.
In order to bring down the latter once and for all, the King of the North will order the Northerners – including Sansa Stark (Sophie Turner), Lady Lyanna Mormont (Bella Ramsey), Ser Davos Seaworth (Liam Cunningham), Brienne of Tarth (Gwendoline Christine), and Tormund Giantsbane (Kristofer Hivju) – to create various weapons using Dragonglass.
Viewers will also see more of Daenerys Targaryen’s struggle to reclaim King’s Landing from Queen Cersei Lannister (Lena Headey). But it will not be an easy one. In the 2-minute long trailer, the Protector of the Seven Kingdoms, alongside her brother/lover Jamie Lannister (Nikolai Coster-Waldau), said the Lannisters have enemies to the East, enemies to the West, enemies to the South, and enemies to the North – “whatever stands in our way, we will definitely defeat it.”
"Game of Thrones" Season 7 is scheduled to premiere on July 16, and will include seven episodes instead of the usual 10.
