Many of us assumed that we’d seen the last of Daario Naharis at the end of season 6. Then, some of us speculated that he might sail back onto the screen with the Golden Company in season 8. Actor Michiel Huisman recently spoke about Game of Thrones and offered some clues as whether or not we can expect a Daario return next season (spoiler alert).
In an interview with Digital Spy, Huisman said, “I can’t wait to see the finale! I don’t know what to say. I shouldn’t spoil anything so I’m not gonna tell you.”
The fact alone that he has spoilers to spill indicates that “The Winds of Winter” wasn’t truly the end of Daario’s involvement on Game of Thrones. Alas, HBO keeps its actors on a very tight leash, spoilers-wise. So, Huisman offered no more details about season 8. He did, however, speak highly of his experience on the show.
“I learned a lot,” he said. “It created so many opportunities that otherwise might have taken a lot longer. Like being part of [Neflix’s original series, The Haunting of Hill House].
So what do you think? The Golden Company will almost certainly play an important role in season 8 somehow, given Cersei’s reveal of her collusion with them at the end of last season. But how do you think Daario will factor into the picture, if at all? Tell us below.
