“What’s the point?”: Game of Thrones Dodged a Bullet by Denying Sophie Turner’s Morbid Request That Made No Sense

Sophie Turner once requested her own character to die in Game of Thrones—a wish that, in retrospect, would have been hilariously absurd. Sansa Stark managed to survive in the show, and not only that, but she also became the Queen in the North.
Looking back, it would have been very disappointing if the showrunners killed her off. She’s one of the most resilient characters who suffered so much abuse and violence, but she persevered and worked her way into reclaiming her power and dignity.

Sophie Turner joined the cast of Game of Thrones when she was only 15. Sansa Stark was her first big role, and to have been thrown into this very demanding job at such a young age would have been a daunting task for the actress.
