Pedro Pascal has revealed he actually loves that his GameOfThrones character, the Dornish Prince Oberyn Martell, received such a notoriously gruesome death scene, saying it makes him 'feel like a boss.'😂
Pedro Pascal, who played the Dornish Prince Oberyn Martell in Game of Thrones, has admitted that he loves his character's notoriously gruesome death scene. The actor joined the cast of HBO's hit fantasy series in season 4, appearing as the sexually fluid and proficient fighter Prince Oberyn, who arrives in King's Landing to attend King Joffrey's marriage in place of his brother Prince Doran.
Oberyn is finally granted his opportunity to kill"The Mountain" when he offers to be Tyrion Lannister's champion in a trial by combat, with his sister Cersei Lannister choosing the enormous Clegane as hers. In the confrontation between the two warriors, Oberyn appears to have the upper hand against Clegane, with his agile movements allowing him to inflict deadly wounds on the knight using his spear, tipped with the poisonous manticore venom.
"[It] makes me feel like a boss. If I'm actually up there, and if I'm in the top three [most memorable death scenes], I mean...everything thereafter is a bit futile. It's like, what am I doing? Why am I still trying? I did it." The actor's tongue-in-cheek response to Oberyn's Game of Thrones death indicates that his gory exit remains a career highlight for Pascal. Pascal certainly loved filming this episode and it's clear that he is thrilled to be considered for the "top three" best deaths in a show that became infamous for its unforgiving character kill-0ffs.
Pascal's fondness for his death scene and its fame may come as a slight surprise to some fans. Sean Bean's"disbelief" over his character Ned Stark's death in Game of Thrones season 1, as well as the reactions of some cast members to being killed off in season 8, proves that not every star of the fantasy series was happy about their exit.
