Pryce recently filmed the fifth season of the popular TV series The Crow, and compared it with his time on Game of Thrones. He told Digital Spy, “The closest that I can [compare this to], I was joining Game of Thrones in season 5. I came late to this huge worldwide megahit. And I expected the cast, the crew, and everyone to be rather cynical, because they had this hit on their hands. But far from it.”
He added, “They were determined to make it the best they could, still. And it was the same experience coming onto The Crown in season 5. I think that’s what I’ll do in the future. I’ll just wait for a season 5. I’ll see how Coronation Street works out, and if it becomes a hit, I’ll join it.”
