It's hard to believe that the final season of Game of Thrones is just around the corner. It seems like some of the cast from the show feel even more stunned that the show is coming to an end. Many of these cast have spoken to the press about their feelings as they promote the show ending. Within these interviews, the cast has expressed deep gratitude for their time on the show, as well as a joy at the result of the fruits of their labor. Oddly, not every single actor on the series feels as good about as we do. Some feel like their time was wasted while shooting Game of Thrones. Additionally, some actors are less than pleased with the show's content and therefore have chosen to speak out against it. This may not be uncommon for some of the show's critics to do, but it is surprising coming from one of the series' performers.

However, these people are few and far between. The vast majority of the cast, as well as the crew, have expressed gratitude for their years on the show as well as an extreme excitement for the and final season. How could they not? The series is one of the most complex, engaging, full-on, and exciting of all time. As readers will see, some of the cast rank this series up with all-time greats such as Breaking Bad and The Sopranos. And, with time, they may be proven right.

Here are 3 Actors Who Regretted Being On Game Of Thrones (And 17 Who Adored It).

Adored It: Iain Glen - Jorah

In an interview with Indian Express, Jorah Mormont himself, aka Iain Glen, spoke about his feelings regarding the show's finale. He expressed incredible gratitude for his time being on the show as well as working with the cast. When he was asked about the show's ending, he went into detail saying that it may not please every single fan as it makes some bold choices. He also itted to being a dedicated Game of Thrones fan himself and said that he thought that the ending is "rather brilliant."

This is high praise coming from someone who has been pretty consistently vocal about loving the opportunity of being on one of the greatest shows of all time.

Adored It: Sophie Turner - Sansa

If you've seen practically any interview with Sophie Turner, you'd know that the young woman is a major Game of Thrones fan and loves being on the show. She knows full well that she owes the start of her career to this beloved series. She is also quite vocal about her relationship with the cast that she's been working with for most of her adolescent life.

She even told Elite Daily that she enjoys the fans speculating what her wardrobe and hair choices off-camera truly mean. Not long afterward, Turner showed off a tattoo she got honoring House Stark. Someone who gets a tattoo of a show is clearly a fan of it and grateful for their experience on it.

Adored It: Peter Dinklage - Tyrion

Peter Dinklage is another actor who is grateful for his time on Game of Thrones. He's often spoken about how lucky he feels to have been given a complex role in a fantasy series that didn't make a man of his size into a stereotype. Originally, he was concerned about the role but was quickly relieved to find out that Tyrion would be handled with incredible care.

Recently, Dinklage spoke to Variety about the finale. He said, “It’s bittersweet when it’s time to move on with everything. It’s always the sad part of our business because you get pockets of great people for short amounts of time and then you have to move on and it’s always heartbreaking. Especially when you’ve spent more than a couple months with people."

Adored It: Emilia Clarke - Daenerys

Global News wrote a story on Emilia Clarke's emotional farewell to Game of Thrones. They explained that the actor wrote a public message stating that she had finished the show and she was in tears because of it. Of course, she went on to say how grateful she has been for Game of Thrones as well as how much everyone she's worked with means to her. She said that the set had been her "home away from home" for the past nine years of her life. She then itted that she would "never stop missing" the people she has worked with.

It's clear that Queen Dany herself is one major Game of Thrones fan but, more importantly, she is utterly thrilled to have been part of such a monumental series.

Adored It: Jerome Flynn - Bronn

Jerome Flynn has undoubtedly loved his experience on Game of Thrones. He has always been an advocate of the show, even when he was facing criticism for his battle with Dany's dragon. He went on to say, "Since the day the battle aired, I’ve been a little unpopular, I have to say. My postman won’t speak to me because I shot the dragon."

Regarding the show's end, he said, “I get a bit weepy thinking about it. It’s going to be a strange year. Saying goodbye to everyone, having your last scene with this person or having your last scene with that person. Not only you’re attached to it, loads of people around the world are attached to it.”

Regretted: Stephen Dillane - Stannis

One of the most notables actor who has regretted their time on Game of Thrones is Stephen Dillane who played Stannis Baratheon. The actor told The Times that he was happy to be relieved from his duties on the show.

He went on to say, “Liam Cunningham [who plays Ser Davos Seaworth, Stannis’ right-hand man] is so ionate about the show. He invests in it in a way I think is quite moving, but it wasn’t my experience. I was entirely dependent on Liam to tell me what the scenes were about — I didn’t know what I was doing until we’d finished filming and it was too late. The damage had been done. I thought no one would believe in me and I was rather disheartened by the end. I felt I’d built the castle on non-existent foundations.”

Adored It: Maisie Williams - Arya

Maisie Williams is another member of the Game of Thrones team who absolutely loved her time on the show. She's been quite vocal about this ever since she started to appear on talk shows and do press. In particular, her love for her co-stars, like Sophie Turner who "lifts her up", is noteworthy. Perhaps nothing captures her love for Game of Thrones better than the way she said goodbye to the show. Not unlike other cast , Williams shared her "goodbye" via an image on social media.

Although her photo was revealing, the caption was more descriptive of her love for the show. She wrote, "Goodbye Belfast. Goodbye Arya. Goodbye Game of Thrones. What a joy I’ve had. Here’s to the adventures to come."

Adored It: Sean Bean - Ned

Sean Bean's Ned Stark may have met his end in the ninth episode of the very first season of Game of Thrones, but that doesn't mean that he has lost his love for the show. In fact, The Lord of the Rings alumni has a deep affection for the show and his time on it.

When asked about his early departure from the show, Bean stated, "It was a memorable event — a bit of a shock. I'm proud of all that, though. It's great to be part of a phenomena, establish this character and then he's there forever." He then went on to say that he still watches the show and believes that Arya is the one who capable of making until the very end.

Adored It: Nathalie Emmanuel - Missandei

During an interview with Harper's Bazaar, Missandei actor Nathalie Emmanuel spoke about how she first heard about Game of Thrones and how it became one of the most impactful aspects of her life. Although she was intimidated to the cast, she's very grateful for it. She stated, "It's been an incredible experience for me professionally. It's really opened up so many doors because people just love the show."

In a somewhat reflective post that she posted on social media, Emmanuel said, “When you see the sunrise over Belfast with the people who, over the last 6 years, have become family... in a city that now feels like home. A new day marks new beginnings. Ain’t that the truth... Love you all, you crazy kids."

Regretted: Jonathan Pryce - High Sparrow

Pirates of the Caribbean alumni Jonathan Pryce has gone down as one of the few actors who didn't really enjoy his experience on Game of Thrones nor the show itself. However, that's not to say that he didn't have some interesting to say about it. He was interested to see that some thought The High Sparrow was a villain, as he himself saw him as someone who was trying to save society.

This analysis doesn't cancel other statements Pryce has made about his time on the show. He said that the show never appealed to him as he never liked the genre. He even ed on the role the first time around. Ultimately, more money reportedly changed his mind, as well as a juicier role.
