【“Notes on eroticism and sexuality in Ancient Egypt”】

It's been a long year since Game of ThronesSeason 7 and “Notes on eroticism and sexuality in Ancient Egypt”it'll be a grueling wait for Season 8, but the cast is as tight-lipped as ever -- even while dropping tantalizing hints about the show's conclusion.

In an interview with the Huffington Post, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau discussed the end of Season 7 while teasing bits of next year's final season, no doubt with a signature Jaime Lannister smirk.

Coster-Waldau says he wrote to the Throneswriters after reading the final scripts and told them, “I don’t think you could’ve done a better job at finishing this story.”

"To me, it was very satisfying but also very surprising and all the things that I was hoping for," he said. "It still made sense. It wasn’t like one of those where the killer is suddenly revealed in the last act and you go, 'Oh! I didn’t see that coming.' Here, they’ve done a really, really good job."

Well that's wonderfully vague, Nikolaj, care to explain? (He didn't).

We last left Jaime dealing with immense internal conflict over his sister/lover's plans to betray everyone else in Westeros after defeating the Army of the Dead. Oh, and she's pregnant again.

"She’s been a busy bee, my dear sister," Coster-Waldau told HuffPo, addressing the theory that Robert's bastard Gendry (Joe Dempsie) might be Cersei's true son. "There are so many theories out there that you comment on one and then it takes on its own life. But, yes, I’ve heard that Gendry [pause] ... I think Joe just wanted to get on the throne and that’s why he’s putting it out there."

Before dealing with fatherhood (he has other children, he's just never been able to claim them), Jaime will have to face some more ghosts of his past, including reunions and prolonged time with both Tyrion (Peter Dinklage) and Brienne (Gwendolyn Christie).

And, you know, the ever-looming threat of death.

"Well, he is heading north. I don’t think you can assume that he’s going to make it up there, but who knows," the actor said. "For sure, we see him head north. He might be eaten by dragons, you never know. Or he might just stumble, things happen. Or he might find the love of his life and suddenly he’s like, 'God, this is it. No more.'"

THE LOVE OF HIS LIFE, YOU SAY? Could that be Brienne??

"Ohhh, well, who knows?" was Coster-Waldau's response to the Brienne question. "I don’t, well, I know how it ends but ... no, I can’t comment on that."

Sounds like there's more to this story.
