Peter Dinklage Says He’s Ready For Game of Thrones To End

In an interview with Variety, Peter Dinklage says that he’s ready for Game of Thrones to end, which it will after its seventh and final season in 2019. Here are highlights:

On the end of Game of Thrones: “It’s time. Storywise, not just for all our lives. It’s the perfect time to end it. Sometimes shows stay on a little too long, the jumping-the-shark thing.”

On saying goodbye to Tyrion Lannister: “It’s bittersweet when it’s time to move on with everything. It’s always the sad part of our business, because you get pockets of great people for short amounts of time and then you have to move on and it’s always heartbreaking. Especially when you’ve spent more than a couple months with people.”

On being halfway through with filming: “It’s the final season, and it’s a long one so we’re taking our time.”
