Ed Sheeran on his 'Game of Thrones' role: 'I'd probably prefer to have sex than die'
It's rare in the world of Game of Thrones to have people you know and trust, which is why Ed Sheeran will keep the company of friends when he guest stars on the show in Season 7.
Maisie Williams (Arya) has been a fan of Sheeran for several years, while at the same time the singer was gunning to get a guest spot on the show.
“I do know which role I am going to play,” Sheeran told the Daily Star. “I don’t die in it, I don’t die.”
He revealed he shot a scene with Williams, but that he's “only in it for like five minutes.”
“I’d probably prefer to have sex than die in the show," Sheeran added, likely alluding to the fact that to just have sex and die in a cameo would be the most Game of Thrones thing ever. "I’m sure a lot of people are into that but I’m not.”
