Two seasons after Cersei's (Lena Headey) iconic walk of shame, King's Landing's reigning queen may go full frontal again on "Game of Thrones."
Winter Is Coming recently reported that Rebecca Van Cleave, who served as Headey's body double for Cersei's penance walk, is once again a part of the series. The casting detail was reportedly confirmed by the actress' agency, Industry Casting, through a tweet which has already been taken down.
Van Cleave has once voiced interest in starring in the HBO series as her own character. The tweet could have been an announcement that she landed a role but the fact that the tweet was removed suggests otherwise. If her return was supposed to be a secret, a popular prediction is that maybe she would film a naked scene again in Headey's behalf.
It is unclear what the full frontal scene would be for. If not another humiliation, Elite Daily suggests it could be a scene where Cersei seduces Euron (Pilou Asbæk) or where she gives birth. The publication notes, however, that some of her sex scenes from the past did not require her to be fully naked and there is a general assumption that Cersei will never bring her baby to full term. That leaves one likely option on the table: her death scene.
It is widely speculated that the Queen will meet her demise in "Game of Thrones" season 8 and the popular theory is that Jaime (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) would be the one responsible. Indeed, it is not hard to imagine Cersei stripping herself naked and daring her brother/lover to do it in hopes of turning him back to her. Whether that is the case or not remains to be confirmed.
Regardless, fans can expect the finale to be the best season yet. Headey herself teased that it is "bigger and better than ever"– from the sets to its battle sequences.
HBO has not announced yet the exact date of the show's return, but it is confirmed to premiere sometime in 2019.
