Game Of Thrones’ Isaac Hempstead-Wright believes his fellow cast members should accept the idea that they’ll never escape the show.
And he’s okay with that.
When chatting to Metro.co.uk the 19-year-old, who plays Bran Stark in the HBO hit, opened up on the prospect of future work.
Here is spoke about the possibility of being type cast, but says he doesn’t mind having the fantasy saga hanging over his head.
‘I think the thing is, it would be mad if you thought you would ever get away from Game Of Thrones,’ he said before adding: ‘It’s massive.’
‘For a lot of us it was one of the first things we ever did, so people do strongly associate us with those roles.
‘But it doesn’t faze me because it’s not like it has been something awful we’ve been a part of and it’s hanging over our heads, and we wish we could forget about it.’
Grinning, the young star added: ‘It’s something that is part of history, and is something really cool to have been a part of.
‘Whether or not it makes it hard and we are type cast or whatever, it’s still such a nice thing to be a part of.’
The actor went on to talk about how the show has been progressive, and has given a number of opportunities to people who live close by to the set.
He told us: ‘I think something that’s amazing about Game Of Thrones show is how it has given so many opportunities to people in Northern Ireland.
‘There are people who started as like camera trainees in the pilot and are now top of their game camera operators.’
Recently, Isaac’s co-star Emilia Clarke revealed she is on the same wage as the Jon Snow actor, Kit Harington.
That’s right, the Daenerys star made sure she was not discriminated against in her pay check, and we salute her for it.
‘Game Of Thrones… It’s difficult to say because it is my own really experience in the film industry, but has just been a wonderful set to work on,’ Isaac explained.
‘There has never been anything unsavoury, or I have never known anyone to have felt uncomfortable or whatever – it has been really good.’
Isaac’s character has been under scrutiny by fans after rumours started to circulate that he was the Night King.
However, when chatting to us he appeared to laugh off the claims – although he still didn’t deny them.
‘I don’t know everyone is trying to get me to give out a spoiler,’ he chuckled, before adding: ‘I don’t know where this quest to work out who the Night King is came from because everyone seems to be quite fascinated by it.
‘But I don’t know, you’ll have to wait and see – only on HBO April 14th!’
