Gendry, a major character in the first three seasons of Game of Thrones, is set for a long, long, long-awaited return in the seventh series of the show next year.
Game of Thrones fan site Los Siete Reinos claim to have it on good authority that actor Joe Dempsie, who plays Gendry, is due on the set of the show in Spain as filming begins for the next chapter.
A video which appeared on the site (via El Correo) confirmed the presence of Liam Cunningham (Ser Davos Seaworth) and Peter Dinklage (Tyrion Lannister), which in itself is a pretty big deal considering their paths have yet to cross (they were on opposite sides in the Battle of Blackwater in season two but never shared a scene) in the show's six seasons so far.
Gendry’s return is the latest of many rumours about season seven to emerge in recent weeks, following on from reports of two pretty important reunions (read about them here and here) set to take place when the show resumes next year.
It could do with hurrying up already.
