Lena Headey felt relieved when Game of Thrones craze died down

Game of Thrones star Lena Headey is an amazing performer. When she played Cersei Lannister on the show, her evil queen persona was so powerful, that some fans began to despise her in real life. Nonetheless, true fans know and love her for the same, for her phenomenal acting. Headey was actually very relieved when the Game of Thrones hype slowly mellowed down.

In an exclusive interview with Newsweek, Headey admitted, “Yes, it’s died down, thank God, because it was weird. And, not in any s***** way. You kind of go, ‘OK, that was amazing and unexpected,’ and then you’re like, ‘What’s next?'”
