Game of Thrones | Sunday, 9 p.m. HBO
The penultimate episode of “Game of Thrones” may prompt the onset of separation anxiety. Viewers have become so attached to certain key characters — one might say too far gone — that we thought it a public service to tell the folks at home where — and how soon — they can see their favorite citizens of Westeros again.
Nickolaj Coster-Waldau (Jaime Lannister): Will star as Macbeth at the Geffen Playhouse in LA in November. Who will play Lady Macbeth? “We’re still looking” says Coster-Waldau.
Emilia Clarke (Daenerys Targaryen): Clarke hangs up her wig to star with Henry Golding (“Crazy Rich Asians”) in the rom-com “Last Christmas,” which be released Nov. 15. Clarke will also appear with Jack Huston in the drama “Above Suspicion,” a true story about the first FBI agent arrested for murder.
Liam Cunningham (Davos): The affable Irishman will star opposite Julianna Margulies in “The Hot Zone,” a National Geographic limited series about the discovery of the Ebola virus on American soil that debuts May 27. “I’m the world’s leading expert on emerging diseases. Couldn’t you tell?” Cunningham quips. “We filmed three months in Toronto and a month in South Africa. I finished that just before Christmas.”
