When the final episode of Game of Thrones airs, it's likely people will be sitting on the edge of their seats, with tears streaming down their face, and a growing sense of emptiness inside from knowing that this beloved show is over forever.

But, if you're an actual Game of Thrones cast member, you might feel differently, having actually lived through the whole thing.

Game of Thrones star Kit Harington, who has previously opened up about how the GoT actors had all "had enough" by the end of the shooting Season 8, just shared his plans for how he's going to be watching the final episode when it airs (presumably on May 19, 2019).

Speaking to Sky News, Harington said that he will celebrate the "emotional" finale one of two ways: with a bang, or alone in quiet contemplation.

"I'm gonna, I think, have a party," Harington told Sky. "I don't know if I want to watch it on my own, quietly, just myself, or whether I'll have a party and watch it with lots of other people."

In case you were wondering, the moustache is for the play Harington is currently starring in in London, True West.

As Jeor Mormont would say: "The things we love destroy us every time, lad. Remember that."

We are more than ready to be absolutely destroyed by the Game of Thrones finale.
