As the penultimate season of Game of Thrones, Season 7 things will need to start wrapping things up quite quickly. Questions will need to be answered, and characters’ arcs will need to start coming to a close. And of course, for the Starks, this means a healthy dose of revenge.
In season 6 we saw Jon Snow finally taking up arms against the Boltons, and Arya making it back to Westeros to enact some sweet payback to Walder Frey. Sansa Stark, while allied with Jon, is a bit more of a question mark. Not only is she in close contact with the scheming Littlefinger, but she also seems jealous of her brother and the title that he is assuming: The King in the North.
So what does the future hold in store for Sansa Stark? Will she start to play the “Game of Thrones”? Actress Sophie Turner recently spoke to TIME to weigh in on who Sansa Stark is at this point in the series…
“I do wonder if it’d be kind of impossible for this world and all of these people who she’s surrounded herself with, of course that would rub off on her. And she’d be learning things from them and since the age of 13 she hasn’t been with her family and had those Stark morals reiterated to her on a daily basis. She’s had to do that herself and over this period of five years she’s been away from her family, she will have one way or another been swept up in this world of betrayal and revenge. I do wonder if she’ll falter a little. She’s spent so long trying to survive and see her family again — it’s the only thing that’s kept her going and motivated, when so many times, she could have given up. So I think she may change a little, but at the end of the day, I think her heart is still good. The way she deals with her problems and her enemies may be different from how she would have dealt with them in the day when she was 13 or so.”
