He recently opened up about his character on the final season of the show and also explained why often, his character Bran’s stare comes across as creepy on the show.

I need them to see.” He further revealed about a hilarious incident during the shoot wherein he had to share the screen with Sophie Turner who plays his onscreen sister Sansa Stark on the show.

He recalled the incident and said, “She said, 'Isaac, your stare is like you're staring into my soul', and I was like, 'I can't see you. That's why."
