The case of Game of Thrones' leak management is a baffling one. Actress Emilia Clarke, who portrays the Mother of Dragons, said that it was scarier to hold the secrets to her other project, the Han Solo movie, than Game of Thrones.
It doesn't help that the show is teeming with so much speculation and rumor fodder with every sighting and news. Apparently, its actors aren't that much help when it comes to keeping secrets—and in the case of Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, who plays Jaime Lannister, he even gives a little hint of where fans can find what they're looking for.
In an interview for his Small Crimes movie for Netflix (via Winter is Coming), the actor pretty much confirms one thing: someone has already hit on what will happen for Game of Thrones:
"What's interesting, though, is every year there are huge spoilers online where people find out real stuff and they will post it, and you go, ‘Oh my god, they just spoiled the whole season online!' But then, because there's 10,000 other spoilers out there, they're not real. It just gets lost in the shuffle. So, it's all out there, by the way, if you can find it."
To be fair, he also said that it was among the sea of online leaks and speculations already ongoing. What makes that even more complicated is that no one from producers' end will give away what exactly those "correct" leaks are anyway. So technically, Game of Thrones' secret is still safe. But if you do have the time to try and scout the possible leaks, at least you know that the correct one is out there—somewhere.
Game of Thrones will be back on HBO this July.
