Game of Thrones' Charles Dance (aka Tywin Lannister) Says He'd Sign Petition to Remake Final Season

Charles Dance is down to re-do the final season of Game of Thrones.

The 73-year-old actor, who played Tywin Lannister until season five of the eight-season long series, opened up about what he thought of fans signing a petition for HBO and the cast to re-shoot the final season because they did not like how it ended.

“I mean, I saw it. I continue to watch the whole series even after I’d been killed off in the lavatory,” Charles shared with PopCulture in a new interview. “Because I just thought it’s a fantastic television show, you know? I was very lucky to be part of it. I loved it; there were storylines [where] I wanted to know what was going to happen to these people!”

He added, “I know that the finale satisfied a lot of people. It also disappointed a lot of people, and I’m afraid I am in the latter camp.”

Charles also credited writers David Benioff and D.B. Weiss for the brilliant writing in the earlier seasons, but wasn’t a fan of the “committee” writing in the latter ones.

“I think David and Dan raised the bar when it came to television screenplay writing,” he said. “They are phenomenal. And for the whole thing to end up as a committee, I just thought, ‘Hmm, no.’ I would say I was somewhat underwhelmed by.”

This other Game of Thrones star almost signed the petition too.
