HBO: Last News

HBO’s The Sopranos.The actress, who played Meadow Soprano in the beloved drama, was speaking on the Life Is Short podcast when she revealed that she only found out about her on-screen dad’s generosity after he died.Sigler was diagnosed with the disease in 2002, during the making of the show, and Gandolfini was the first person that she shared the news with on set.“I found out after his death that he donated to MS organizations constantly for me,” she said.Remembering the moment that she shared her diagnosis with him, she said: “He pulled me aside one day and he said, ‘Jamie, what is going on?’ I just fell in a puddle in his arms. And I was just like, ‘I’m so scared, but I have MS, and I don’t know how to tell anybody.’ And he’s like, ‘Your secret’s safe with me.'”Sigler has been highly complimentary of the late actor in the past, revealing last year that Gandolfini would often publicly doubt himself and proclaim “I fucking suck” on set during the making of the HBO classic, adding that she felt it was primarily a way for him to help his fellow actors.“It had nothing to do with his confidence,” Sigler told the Inside of You podcast.

House Of The Dragon has created a significant plot hole in Game Of Thrones lore.The first episode of season two aired on HBO in the US on June 17, with UK viewers able to watch concurrently via Sky Atlantic and streaming service NOW.In the episode, Cregan Stark relays a story from years earlier that King Jaehaerys and Queen Alysanne’s dragons were unable to go beyond the Wall, the home of Jon Snow.This appears to be in direct contradiction to the facts established in Game Of Thrones itself, in which Daenerys Targaryen did cross the Wall in an attempt to save Jon Snow.Despite the Lord of Winterfell’s dragons being seemingly more powerful than Daenerys’, it is made clear that at least two of them were unable to cross the Wall, with no logical explanation offered.In other House of the Dragon-related news, it was confirmed yesterday that a new Game Of Thrones spin-off series was in production, tentatively titled A Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms.The series, which is adapted from George R.

House Of The Dragon star Tom Glynn-Carney has suggested that predecessor show Game Of Thrones strayed “close to oversexualising women”.The prequel series, which has just returned for its second season, follows events in Westeros 200 years before Game Of Thrones, with Glynn-Carney portraying reigning King, Aegon II Targaryen.The original series drew controversy at the time over its treatment of women, and the actor reflected on House Of The Dragon paring down on sex and nudity.“I presumed that they would,” he told The Independent.“That they would take a different approach, because it did feel like maybe Game Of Thrones was too close to oversexualising women, and that wouldn’t be cool if they did that this time. I thought they were suitably delicate and took a better, more sustainable angle.”Back in 2016, Game Of Thrones star Emilia Clarke – who played Daenerys Targaryen – addressed criticism over the show’s treatment of women.“There’s so much controversy.
