More brutal deaths are coming to Westeros in the coming episodes of "Game of Thrones" season 5. Fans of the hit HBO adaptation of George R.R. Martin's best-selling saga are warned about the upcoming bloody deaths still to come in the current season. 

Liam Cunningham, the actor who portrays the role of Ser Davos Seaworth, dished a few details about the upcoming bloodshed during an interview with Thronecast. 

"It's towards the end of the season and when I got the scripts, when I got to this particular section, I went: 'You've gotta be kidding me'," the actor said. 

Cunningham also mentioned that he and the rest of the cast are always having a hard time saying goodbye to their co-workers after their characters' lives end in the most gruesome manner imaginable. 

"There are deaths every year, so I'm not giving anything away saying it's horrific when you've spent time with people and then they're gone," he said.

The 53-year-old actor also added that they usually share celebratory drinks with co-stars who will be facing their end.

The author of "A Song of Ice and Fire," on which the series is loosely based, also warned viewers that there are several big surprises in the current season, and four of the characters in the book who did not die will be brutally murdered in season 5. 

Meanwhile, fans of the show are still waiting to get their first glimpse at the Sand Snakes, who are out to avenge the death of their father Oberyn Martell.

Elsewhere, Arya's fate in Braavos has yet to be revealed in the next episodes of "Game of Thrones" season 5. Back in episode 2, Arya reunited with her old friend Jaqen H'ghar and was introduced to the Faceless Men. 

In another news, "Game of Thrones" made another record by being the world's number one illegally downloaded series. Early this month, the first four episodes of the current season were leaked online. Over 32 million illegal downloads were recorded in just a week because of this.

"Game of Thrones" season 5 airs Sundays on HBO.
