"Game of Thrones" Season 7 is currently in production and it will see the return of key cast members such as Sophie Turner, Kit Harrington, Lena Headey and Peter Dinklage. Turner has recently revealed that the cast members have acknowledged that the show is ending and how it has affected everyone on set.
According to the actress, the actors have been discussing amongst each other what gifts they could give the producers and what activities they may have planned for the final day of shooting. She further stated that the realization that the show is ending has become quite real for the people involved.
"It's definitely emotional. We can really feel everything slowly coming to an end," Turner told Vulture. "It's quite somber on set, but everyone's just trying to enjoy it as much as possible. Trying to get the most out of it. Trying not to take anything for granted."
It was further pointed out that Turner and Maisie Williams' matching tattoos were quite popular amongst their fans. The actress then stated that there is a plan for all of the actors whose characters survive to Season 8 to get matching tattoos as well. She also pointed out there was no guarantee her character, Sansa Stark, would reach that point as Sansa could be killed off during Season 7.
Fans of genre films and television programs such as "Game of Thrones" will recall that the cast members of "The Lord of the Rings" trilogy, particularly the actors who portrayed the members of the Fellowship of the Ring, all got matching tattoos as well. This excludes John Rhys Davies who had his stunt double get the tattoo in his stead.
According to Cinema Blend, the mood affecting the series' end also reflects the future of the cast members. While actors like Kit Harrington and Sophie Turner can look forward to getting new projects there are many cast members with smaller parts who might not be just as fortunate in the future.
No official launch date has yet been announced for "Game of Thrones" Season 7. HBO has confirmed the show has been delayed to Summer 2017.
