Sophie Turner is the talk of the town this week. With ‘Game of Thrones‘ just ending a few weeks ago, Sophie’s buzz was only getting bigger. Trailers for her new movie, ‘Dark Phoenix’ were in abundance and GOT fans along with X-Men fans were gearing up to see the Queen in the North reprise her role as the telekinetic Jean Grey. However, fans have a question for the newly married Turner. Will Sansa be part of a ‘Game of Thrones’ spinoff?
Moreover, ‘Dark Phoenix’ premiered this week and Sophie has been promoting the movie and answering many lingering GOT questions. In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, the question of a ‘Game of Thrones’ spinoff is asked, “The finale ends with the futures of so many characters wide open, Sansa included. Would you ever play Sansa again?” Which she replies:
“No. It’s time for me to say goodbye. She’s ended up in a place that I’m so happy with. I don’t know. It would be different if someone actually came and said, “We want to do a Sansa spinoff show,” but I’m pretty sure I’d say no. It’s been 10 years of watching this character grow, and she’s at her peak right now. I’m sure if she carried on and did a spinoff show, it would just be downhill from there. She’d have to go through some other terrible traumas or something, and I don’t want to do that.”
Fans will always enjoy more GOT, no matter how much we complain about certain aspects of it. With that being said, would you like to see Sophie Turner return to play Sansa again or is she right and the character should be left alone?
