Sophie Turner Says Sansa Stark Will Be Going On A "Power Trip" In Season 7 Of GAME OF THRONES
Fans became worried that Sansa would turn against her brother (or should that be cousin?) Jon towards the end of Game of Thrones season 6, & based on Sophie Turner's comments here, maybe they should be.
Poor Sansa Stark was put through the ringer ever since she left Winterfell back in the very first episode of Game of Thrones, but season 6 signaled a big change for the character as she finally began to play the game, and exacted a gruesome revenge against the sadistic Ramsay Bolton.
However, this may have brought out a darker side to the eldest Stark girl, as it looked like she might be allowing Littlefinger to cloud her judgment and succeed in driving a wedge between her and Jon Snow in the S6 finale.
Does Sansa see herself as the rightful Queen in the North? Here's what X-Men: Apocalypse actress Sophie Turner had to say to EW when quizzed about her character's season 7 arc.
She’s seemingly in control for the first time – and it really suits her. She’s kind of having a bit of a power trip. But she’s also becoming more insecure, because there are threats to the power that she holds. What overall excites me about this season is that main characters are coming together and it feels like things are ramping up. It’s really exciting and all feels like it’s coming to a big conclusion."
Here's hoping Arya shows up and smacks some sense into her! Game of Thrones returns next year, and you can check out the first official images from its seventh season here.
