The first season, Jaime and I were the only ones who were not native speakers, and then I was given more and more and more. They gave me, a non-native English speaker, many chances. Martin.” Dan and David created such a wonderful show, and George R.R. People who are not at the show anymore kept telling me, “Sibel, please enjoy every second, because nothing can compare to HBO and Dan and David and George R.R. I got to see a lot of great actors - young actors - children, like Sophie ( Turner). To have most of my parts with Peter, I was really, really lucky. It’s a long time to stay alive in this show - four years. Is he going to die? Please tell me! I can’t wait.” A few weeks ago, after the trial scene, a friend said, “I can’t believe what you did to Tyrion. They ask me to know what’s going on, but I don’t tell - I don’t want to get killed by HBO. But it’s a very emotional and complicated scene.ĭid your friends and family know ahead of time you would be killed off? Some fans might say Shae somehow deserved it because she’s in Tywin’s bed. They either say “I love Shae or I hate you,” whereas Tyrion is considered untouchable by the fans. The fans are so great - but they can be tough on Shae. What do you think fans will say about Shae’s fate? You’re a whore.” She was thinking, “I’m again where I was before I met Tyrion. She was a victim of the system maybe, of life circumstances, but she was also a really strong woman. For me, calling her a victim would mean she was weak. In the end, do you consider Shae a victim?

It’s a world of not just black and white there are gray areas. But the most important scenes are the trial scenes because it shows how broken the characters are. The end of the second season, when she’s on his bed and they have won the battle but he has a scar on a his face - that was also really emotional and important for my character.

What did you and Peter talk about beforehand? It was an even longer day for Peter, because I think they shot the Tywin scene the same day. They had to shoot one more scene after ours. There was a stunt coordinator, so it took a long time, plus that emotional scene at the end.
