Nikolaj Coster Waldau aka Jaime Lannister is one of the most liked characters of the fantasy saga 'Game of Thrones'. The journey and the courage of the king-slayer is an inspiration for a lot of fans. The first episode of the final season aired a few days ago. Towards the end, Jaime was seen bumping into Bran Stark as he arrives at Winterfell. In a recent interview, the actor was asked several questions about his time on the show, to which he answered impressing his fans even more. When asked about the best and worst things about working on Game of Thrones, Nikolaj said, "I think working with an amazing group of people, especially on an experience as strange as this, is the best, and I will miss seeing all of these people. As an actor, I’ve never worked on anything this long. Families have formed on this show. People have gotten married and divorced. Kids have been born. It has been quite something".
He further added, "The first three seasons I knew where I was going. Then once we got off the books, [executive producers] Dan [D.B. Weiss] and David [Benioff] and the writers had to carve their own way — and of course everyone wanted to know what happened next. So they made the very sensible decision not to tell anyone at all. That was really the worst part. And if that’s the worst part, then it’s not too bad".
Waldau also talked about his upcoming projects. He mentioned, "I’m going to Canada to shoot a movie called “The Silencing.” Then, in the fall, I’m going to do a play at the Geffen Playhouse in Los Angeles. I’m doing “Macbeth.” Then, hopefully, next year, I’ve got a script set in Greenland. It’s called “Alabama, Greenland.” That’s a passion project, so hopefully, I can find someone with some dollars to spare who will fund it, but we’ll see."
