With so many different plot lines happening in Westeros, GAME OF THRONES has put one on hiatus for the entirety of Season 5.
Isaac Hempstead-Wright and Kristian Narin– aka Bran Stark and Hodor– will not be appearing in the upcoming season, according to Narin.
“We have a season off and we have a year’s hiatus, solely because I imagine our storyline is up to the end of the books.”
This leaves their plot line at a frustrating cliffhanger for even longer, but may ultimately be the best way to ensure things don’t get too messy.
