Sophie Turner reveals the secret codename for Game of Thrones Season 8

Published

on

The filming on Game of Thrones Season 8 is officially underway, and it already has one giant difference from Season 7. The show had multiple leaks during Season 7 filming, to a point where the entire plot was leaked online, and as we later found out, quite accurately. Season 8 hasn’t seen many leaks, and it has been because of the security measures that HBO took this time around. In a recent sit-down with DigitalSpy, Sophie Turner, who plays the role of Sansa Stark, talked a bit more about Season 8 and the tightened security. Read on!

Now, we’ve had multiple reports about Season 8 scripts being delivered on high security, and Sophie confirmed that it was all true:

“Yeah, it’s all true. I mean, we wouldn’t get anything physical. We would have it on an app. We would get sent sides for the scene [we were shooting] the next day. So we would have to learn it all the day before.And once you’ve read it, it disappears 24 hours later, and you can never access it again. It’s tighter than the White House security!”

Sophie also revealed bits like how everybody present at the filming locations “had stickers on their phones so that they couldn’t take photos,” and that the call sheets for every day had code names for the cast “so that no-one knew who was really going to be on set”. She also revealed the code name that the entire season had:

“It was Face of Angels. It’s a random one!”

Well, let’s hope that’s not a spoiler. Sophie also spoke of the pressure of trying not to reveal important details about the show before it comes out:

“It’s hard for me, I’m such a blabbermouth! I’m sure at a party I’ve probably spilled some beans to someone… probably to my mum!”

Well, let’s hope she doesn’t spoil much more before Game of Thrones Season 8 premieres, in 2019. What do you guys think? Talk to us in the comments, down below!

The year 2020 has been the Red Wedding for everyone around the world. Looking at the current scenario, stepping out of quarantine seems to be a big risk. People are cautious and suspicious of each other, scared of contamination. Under such dire conditions, normal life sounds like a fantasy. Game of Thrones star Sophie Turner and husband Joe Jonas are trying hard to give their new-born daughter a normal life.

The young couple went out for a walk with their daughter Willa in Los Angeles on Wednesday. Turner was seen in a T-shirt and black leggings, while Jonas was rocking the buzzcut he dyed pink for Breast Cancer Awareness Month while. They were pushing Willa in a black baby carriage.

Both the high-profile parents were keeping it low-key and were wearing properly secured black face masks. Since becoming parents in July 2020, Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner have been focusing more on their baby and less on sharing details of their private life.

Sophie earlier made headlines with an Instagram post, when she brought a prop from Game of Thrones set back home. She welcomed the wooden Throne of Winterfell at her home, which had an intricately carved dire-wolf on it.

Turner and Jonas are trying their best to be good parents for little Willa. Feel free to express your good wishes for their cute family in the comments below!
