Ian McShane says Game of Thrones is “only tits and dragons”

March 13, 2016 by Gary Collinson

Ian McShane caused a bit of a stir earlier this month when he dropped a spoiler about his character in the upcoming sixth season of Game of Thrones, and the British actor has now addressed the reaction to his comments in an interview with The Telegraph.

“You say the slightest thing and the internet goes ape. I was accused of giving the plot away, but I just think get a fucking life. It’s only tits and dragons.”

And just to reinforce that he really doesn’t care about spoilers, McShane went on to let another slip when he talked about his casting in the show:

They asked me if I wanted to do Game of Thrones and I said, ‘Sure, I’ll be able to see my old pals Charlie Dance and Stephen Dillane’ and they said, ‘No, we’ve killed them off.’ I wasn’t sure whether I could commit, but then they said it would only be for one episode, so I said, ‘So that means I must die at the end of it. Great, I’m in.’ ”

Game of Thrones returns to HBO on April 24th.
