‘Heartbroken and F**ked Off’: Lena Headey Aka Cersei Lannister Laments as She Misses out Game of Thrones 8 Premiere
The premiere screening of GOT 8 registered attendance from the cast of the popular series, minus Lena Headey.
The month of April is going to be epic. We are getting two big pop culture events like the release of Avengers: Endgame and premiere of Game of Thrones season 8. The premiere screening of GOT 8 was held recently at Radio City Music Hall in New York. The event registered attendance from the cast of the popular series, sans Lena Headey. The actress, who plays the sinister Cersei Lannister in the epic TV show, was missing from the event. She took to her Instagram page to share her sorrow and the reason for her absence. She said 'Heartbroken and f**ked off' is how she feels about it.
Lena shared a close up of her and face a finger, almost looking she is flipping a bird. She wrote a near-descriptive caption, which reveals she was so sick that she couldn't be at the premiere of Game of Thrones. "I fucking hate being sick and the timing of this is a shit bag," she wrote, adding, "S8 is the tits and so are all my cast mates and crew mates and creators... so RIDE FORTH INTO THE NIGHT AND CREATE MAYHEM (sic)"
Game of Thrones cast member Emilia Clarke was one of first to respond to the Instagram post. The actress who plays the role of Daenerys Targaryen, wrote back, "WE LOVE AND MISS YOU MAMMA. You are here in spirit," Game of Thrones Season 8: The New Promo Gives us a Glimpse About the Aftermath of Battle of Winterfell - Watch Video.
Some users joked about how Lena's absence was an obvious throwback to the season 6 episode of Game of Thrones, in which her character, Cersei, pulled off a similar trick to blow up her enemies.
Well, not to worry. The cast and crew of GoT 8 are absolutely safe. There was no recorded incident of a wildfire. At least the last we checked. Game of Thrones' final season premieres on April 14 on HBO.
