Following a viral interview clip with actor Peter Claffey, rumors spread that Henry Cavill might appear in the Game of Thrones world. Fans have long hoped to see Cavill join the popular franchise, but Claffey recently confirmed he will not be in the upcoming spin-off, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms.
Henry Cavill won’t be in new Game of Thrones spin-off
Despite rumors, Henry Cavill won’t be making an appearance in the upcoming Game of Thrones spin-off, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms. Peter Claffey, who stars as Ser Duncan the Tall, has confirmed this.
A video of Robert Claffey and Dexter Sol Ansell (who plays Egg in the show) recently became popular online. In the video, Claffey compared his character to Henry Cavill’s Geralt from The Witcher, and Ansell quickly asked if he thought he could mention Cavill by name.
Okay, so things got really awkward at the press conference. When someone mentioned Henry Cavill potentially returning, Claffey practically panicked, repeatedly saying ‘No, no, no!’ and then immediately telling the reporters to forget he said anything at all. Of course, a clip of this quickly spread online, and now everyone’s buzzing with speculation that Cavill might actually make a surprise appearance in ‘A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms.’ It’s a weird situation, but it’s definitely got fans excited!
Claffey quickly addressed the rumors with a post on Instagram. They explained that what Dex mentioned in the interview wasn’t about Henry Cavill joining the show or the Game of Thrones world, saying it was a complete misunderstanding. Claffey hopes fans enjoy the upcoming ‘Trial of the Seven.’ (via westerosies)
Look, everyone’s been buzzing about who should play what in Game of Thrones, but Henry Cavill himself has thrown his hat in the ring, which I found fascinating. He was on the Happy Sad Confused podcast a while back, and while he admitted he’d love to be part of that world – Westeros, specifically – he wasn’t convinced there was a role that would suit him. It’s a funny little moment – wanting in, but not seeing a clear path. I think it shows he’s a fan first and foremost, but also realistic about the casting process.
