Now, McShane – fresh from his guest spot in Game of Thrones’ sixth season – has shed some more light on the planned follow-up in an interview with Entertainment Weekly.
Game of Thrones continues its sixth season this Sunday with an episode that promises bloody action a-plenty.
Ian McShane may have appeared in the most recent episode of HBO series Game of Thrones but it was another TV show on the same channel that helped make him such a beloved actor.
The Brit appeared as the corrupt Al Swearengen in Deadwood, the 1800s-set Western drama from creator David Milch, between 2004 and 2006.
