Game of Thrones star has an uncomfortable truth for Arya Stark fans

Paul Moore

Ser Davos is such a legend.

In a world that’s filled with dragons, White Walkers, Three-Eyed ravens, Children of the Forest and dead people coming back to life, it’s reassuring to know that Ser Davos is always at hand to cut through the bullshit.

When he’s not talking about fermented crab, giving Jon Snow the worst introduction of all time or saving Gendry’s life, the Onion Knight has proven himself to be one of the most decent and noble characters in the Seven Kingdoms.

Yep, we’re worried that he’s going to die also!

In real life, it’s clear that Liam Cunningham is also a very trustworthy and honourable man because aside from his work with Syrian refugees, he’s also guarding the biggest secret in the realm.

Yes, that’s right. George R.R Martin actually told the Irish actor how A Song of Ice and Fire/Game of Thrones will end.

See, he’s clearly a man that can be trusted and on that note, Arya Stark fans might find his tongue-in-cheek interview with Rolling Stone to be a bit ‘too truthful.’

During the interview, Cunningham gives his opinion on a plethora of fan theories and it’s a really interesting watch.

This being said, one question managed to provoke the star of The Guard and The Wind that Shakes the Barley into revealing an uncomfortable truth about Arya Stark.

During the Q&A session, Cunningham’s asked: “After their ruse with Littlefinger, Sansa and Arya will continue to have Ocean’s Eleven-style capers to punish Westeros’ slimiest characters.”

Here’s what he jokingly had to say: “Let me throw something out to you people. There’s a lot of young ladies I speak to and when I say ‘what do you think of the ladies?’ (in Game of Thrones) they say ‘Arya (Maisie Williams’ character) is such a great role model.’ I go ‘yeah ok, let me stop you there. She’s a serial killer!’. A lot of young ladies are using her as a role model, in five-ten years time, let’s not examine where that might go!’

Maybe Arya will be adding the name of Ser Davos to her list?

Here’s his interview with Rolling Stone in full.
