‘Game of Thrones’ Stars Discuss Life After Hodor’s Depressing Death
A handful of Game of Thrones stars joined Conan O’Brien for his final Comic-Con episode in San Diego Sunday night. Two of the stars on hand were Isaac Hempstead Wright and Kristian Nairn, otherwise known as Bran and Hodor. Countless Game of Thrones fans were saddened by Hodor’s death this past season, and many took to Twitter to share their frustrations with Isaac. The 17-year-old actor said he woke up to a torrent of angry tweets directed toward his character.
Conan asked Kristian if he had any bitterness toward Bran, and the 7-foot-tall actor said, “If you’re talking to me or Hodor, it’s two different things. I’m terribly bitter towards him, but I don’t think Hodor blames you,” he said as he looked at Isaac. The two actors have become very close over the years, and Kristian said that leaving the show was really sad. Although, since he lives in Belfast, Ireland, where much of the show is filmed, Kristian joked that he would be stopping by the set to hang out.
Conan airs weeknights at 11 p.m. on TBS.
