On GoT actors being "type-cast" after the show ends: "It's gonna be interesting to see how the younger actors on Thrones are gonna navigate this — because for a good five, 10 years in Denmark, every time I did anything, I was the guy from Nightwatch. As a young actor, it drove me crazy — like, 'Don't put me in this box. I'm not the Nightwatchman.' And, of course, that's gonna happen with Game of Thrones.
"This whole concept of fame, it's a completely empty shell made up of other outside forces. It has nothing to do with you. It will never have anything to do with you. You will just be there to fill some narrative that has nothing to do with you, and unless you keep that in mind, it's going to drive you crazy."
