Ever since Recreation of Thrones ended in 2019, Sophie Turner has saved herself fairly busy. Her newest follow-up from the HBO collection was a mini-series known as Joan, a couple of infamous jewel thief. However when Turner regarded again on the present that began all of it for her, she hilariously tried to clarify the plot regardless of having “by no means watched” it (and she or he’s not mistaken).
Recreation of Thrones (which is streaming in your HBO Max subscription) is thought for lots of issues. With its most grotesque demise scenes, flying dragons, and epic betrayals, the collection pushed the boundaries of fantasy tv and acquired numerous followers speaking. Shockingly sufficient, star Sophie Turner has “by no means watched” one in all HBO Max’s finest exhibits. Nonetheless, she hilariously tried to clarify what occurs on the collection on the Dish Podcast. I’ve gotta say, she’s not precisely mistaken:
I’ve additionally by no means watched the present. I will inform you what, I do know what my character does, which is not very good. Principally, it is warring households preventing for the throne. There’s dragons. And that is about it, actually.
And right here I assumed Samuel L. Jackson’s rationalization of Recreation of Thrones was the one one which was hysterically on-point. Sophie Turner’s concise abstract of the collection tops all of it. I imply, she is true that dragons play a key position, and households going head-to-head with one another is what the present is all about. That’s just about the very best straight-to-the-point pitch to present if you wish to get your mates to observe it.
I’m truthfully shocked that Sophie Turner hasn’t watched Recreation of Thrones. I’d have thought she’d have to tune in again within the filming days to achieve an extra understanding of the fantasy world of Westeros. Possibly she simply targeted on Sansa’s character arc and that was all she wanted to prep? Both means, it confirmed what a expertise the Northampton native is in bringing Sansa to life with out having ever watched past her personal character’s arc.
On the identical time, I perceive why Sophie Turner wouldn’t need to watch a collection she starred in, regardless of how standard it was. The British actress acquired actual on the podcast about having to “endure” premieres and that watching herself would have her going into “a two-month bout of melancholy.” We don’t want that! I personally could be my very own critic if I had been pressured to observe my very own world efficiency, too. You may see the entire clip of Turner’s interview on TikTok beneath:
Though Sophie Turner has “by no means watched” Recreation of Thrones, I’m nonetheless impressed along with her hilariously correct synopsis. You bought dragons, warring households… want she say extra? The Emmy nominee doesn’t have to observe the HBO collection. In spite of everything, she lived it.
