Image
> (Photo by Amy E. Price/Getty Images for SXSW) Last month, a quartet of  Game of Thrones  heavyweights — showrunners David Benioff and Dan Weiss together with actors Maisie Williams (Arya) and Sophie Turner (Sansa) — visited the South by Southwest festival in Austin, TX to talk about the show. We  reported  on  everything  that went down, from the discussions of what’s coming in seasons 7 and 8 to the casting process to the funny behind-the-scenes shenanigans. Now,  JasonJyeah  has uploaded a video of the panel to YouTube. The panel is nominally a question-and-answer session, with Williams and Turner asking the questions and Benioff and Weiss answering them. It often breaks down, though. We’ve compiled a little guide to some of the more interesting moments below. Watch away.                             A guide: 1:10 — On the difficulties of casting...

Jacob Anderson: ‘People Actually Ask Me if I Have Genitals in Real Life’

Image
Jacob Anderson , who plays Grey Worm  on Game of Thrones , recently spoke to Daily Star and revealed that some fans actually think that he is castrated in real life: “To me my careers are completely separate but for some Game Of Thrones fans it’s too much for them to understand.

They really think I’ve been castrated. They also ask if the dragons are real. Sometimes people are taking the piss but others really can’t understand it is not real life. It’s a bit weird and alarming actually. I like to keep myself to myself so it is a bit freaky when you’re stuck on a tube and someone is just staring at you or trying to take a picture of you.”

Who is Azor Ahai? The Lord of Light’s chosen? The Prince Who Was Promised? The messiah who will save mankind from the Long Night? That’s one of the most persistent questions among fans of  A Song of Ice and Fire  and  Game of Thrones . The myth of Azor Ahai is mentioned often in  ASOAIF , usually by Melisandre. Here’s her retelling the prophecy that foretells his/her coming: There will come a day after a long summer when  the stars bleed  and the cold breath of darkness falls heavy on the world. In this dread hour a warrior shall draw from the fire a burning sword. And that sword shall be  Lightbringer , the Red Sword of Heroes, and he who clasps it shall be Azor Ahai come again, and the darkness shall flee before him. And again, later: When the red star bleeds and the darkness gathers, Azor Ahai shall be   born again amidst smoke and salt   to wake dragons out of stone.             ...
