Spoiler alert: Don’t read if you haven’t yet seen the “Killing Eve” season 4 finale. Sandra Oh didn’t think “Killing Eve” would end the way it did.

The fourth and final season of the hit show saw Villanelle (Jodie Comer) get shot and killed after she and Eve Polaski (Oh) finally ended years of sexual tension by sharing a kiss.

However, Oh insisted she originally thought it should be her character getting killed off.
