You could go in any way on that show.
So I was kind of gutted.
But I just think they couldnt have pleased everyone.
No matter what they did, I think there was going to be some big comedown from the climb.
I wanted her to have some big piece or fight with somebody, she says.
But then the actress talked over the scene with Coster-Waldau and came around to appreciating Cerseis final moments.
The more we talked about it the more it seemed like the perfect end for her, Headey says.
They came into the world together and now they leave together.
Asked about her favorite Cersei scenes across her long list of standout moments, Headey chose a few.
Those early scenes with Tyrion where you saw their relationship develop.
The stuff with Sophie early on.
Everything that shaped these characters.
The scene where she tells her father that her and Jaime were lovers.
We had some great stuff.
I love the juicy dark emotional moments.
