Game of Thrones Lyanna Mormont Met an Epic Death

There were many casualties in the significant Battle of Winterfell episode of Game of Thrones, but Lyanna Mormont, the young Lady of Bear Island, struck out as particularly bold.

One of the Night King’s most dreadful weapons, aside from the ice zombie dragon Viserion, was his undead, club-wielding giant. And Lyanna, the minor combatant present, is the ideal candidate to take on this formidable foe.

No one. Because Lyanna is a fierce warrior despite being young (only 13 years old) and petite, after charging the giant, she was caught in the giant’s huge hand and crushed to death, but not before she stabbed him mortally in the eye.

Although they were heartbroken to see Lyanna Mormont die, the fans praised her bravery. “Lyanna was more useful than Jon and Dany on dragons combined,” according to one commenter.

The 16-year-old actress who plays Mormont, Bella Ramsey, discussed the guidance Miguel Sapochnik gave her in an interview with Entertainment Weekly.

“There was one thing he said to me that I don’t think I’ll ever forget,” she said. “I wasn’t sure if she would be really scared or slightly scared. We tried it several ways. He said, ‘It’s like someone removed her fear gene.’ And that was just … yeah, that was a great bit of direction.”

Even though losing a character must be painful, Ramsey felt Mormont passed away in the most excellent manner possible: “Her story maybe had the potential to grow, but she was going to go at some point, because everyone does, and this way she went was the best way she could have.”

What’s Next For Bella Ramsey?

Ramsey probably had to learn how to deal with expectations early in her career because of the success of Game of Thrones. This will surely be significant for the actress as she assumes the part of Ellie, the protagonist in HBO’s rendition of the post-apocalyptic drama The Last Of Us. The Last of Us will bring Ramsey back into the HBO spotlight for another significant step in her career.

The Last of Us is arguably the most anticipated program of 2023, sporting a budget reportedly bigger than any season of Game of Thrones and followed by an obsessive fan following of devoted gamers. If Ramsey can channel the ferocity and presence she so effectively maintained as Lyanna, The Last Of Us might be the series that firmly establishes her as a top-tier performer. Pedro Pascal plays the popular anti-hero and father figure Joel.
