Sophie Turner is this month’s cover girl over at Just Jared, with a full photospread and in-depth interview on her many projects, including (but not limited to) the sixth season of Game of Thrones. As in her other interviews, Turner is really hyped for this season, because after five long years of being a character under the thumb of everyone else, this season she will supposedly not disappoint her fans and finally come into her own.

It’s basically a game changer for her because she goes from being a pawn in everyone else’s games to really taking charge. Instead of being shipped around by different people and being a prisoner, she’s the one telling people, “Come with me. I’m taking you somewhere. I’m taking charge.” And she kind of tries to get her own revenge.

“Kind of tries to get her own revenge” doesn’t actually sound all that promising. I think it depends on who she’s trying to get revenge on—if it’s Ramsay, many fans will certainly cheer her on, because everyone hates Ramsay. But personally, I would like to see her switch it up on us, and perhaps aim to take revenge on the man who told her to turn down Brienne’s loyal service and that marrying Ramsay would be a good idea in the first place: Littlefinger. Sadly, Turner doesn’t seem to agree with that—in fact, she’s endorsing him for the Iron Throne.

I want her to get revenge. I want her to avenge her family’s death and everything. But then I kind of want her to die at the end because I want a big death scene. I want her to die and I want Littlefinger to end up on the throne. I don’t really care about anyone else.

She does care how she dies though: “Something that will last a good episode, like poisoning, you can really drag that one out. Just a long slow death.”

As for the rest of the series, she insists she’s in the dark.

I haven’t read anyone else’s parts in the script, I only know my part. Not because I’m lazy, but because I wanted to watch it as a fan so I can only really tease you about my stuff.

One might think that Turner did that because she was trying to keep herself from learning if Jon Snow is alive. (Harington said recently that she’d bought that he was dead “hook, line and sinker.”) But if Sansa is heading to the Wall to get Jon to come with her and retake Winterfell? Will Jon will still be there when she and Brienne arrive….
