In the finale of “Game of Thrones” it was revealed that Bran the Broken would be king. While some fans were surprised, Gwendoline Christie, who plays Brienne of Tarth, was not. According to UPROXX, she told Extra in 2017 that Bran was a contender for the throne. She said: “What we know about the show is that it constantly surprises you, so I’m wondering if it might be Bran.” Her reason behind her choice was that the world is constantly being told from his perspective.
