Game of Thrones actor John Bradley has his own predictions of what’s to come in the show’s seventh season. Bradley, who plays Samwell Tarly on the show, told The Hollywood Reporter he believes the gyroscopes seen during the library scene at the Citadel are really important to Game of Thrones Season 7.
According to Bradley, the gyroscope suggests it might be Sam who’s narrating the story of Game of Thrones. He could be the one at the Citadel discussing the tale of Jon Snow, the Whitewalkers, the Dragon Queens, Cersei the Mad Queen and everything else going on in Westeros.
“I only became aware of that after I saw the episode,” Bradley told THR . “On the day, it was all green screen. It’s only after I saw the episode and people started telling me about the gyroscope. I think it could mean any number of things. One theory is that what we’re seeing now and how we’re experiencing Game of Thrones is Sam telling the story of Game of Thrones . If you take the logic of the story now, the story of Westeros and the story of the battle for the Iron Throne, it would be a book in that library. The visual motif of that is you’re about to be told a story — the sense of an idea of being told a story, and people gaining that knowledge, the way Sam is absorbing knowledge in the library.”
It’s an interesting theory, if Sam ends up being the one who writes down the history in the Citadel and the overall narrator of Game of Thrones . It would explain why the show spent so much time setting up Sam’s arrival to the Citadel if he’s an integral part of the story. What do you think about Bradley’s theory?
