The Danish-born actor is currently terrifying audiences with his tongue-tearing killer Euron, who he himself insisted will be a far more terrifying beast than the likes of Ramsay Bolton and King Joffrey.
The clock is ticking before Euron’s inevitable end, but Pilou is unusually excited to see how gruesome exit from ground-breaking fantasy epic will play out.
“He knows his time is spare,” Pilou told Variety. “He knows he’s going to die at one point. And if you ask me, it’s probably going to be spectacular. I hope so. But right now, he’s in for a ride.”
As for what’s next for the blood-thirsty beast, Pilou teased: “World domination, man. He’s going to start a collaboration with Russia — no, I’m sorry. That was inappropriate.
“What is left for Euron? To enjoy life. Let’s see what kind of gift he brings home to Cersei. And let’s see what her answer is.”
The latest instalment of Game of Thrones, titled Stormborn, saw the extremity of Euron’s menace in one of the most ferocious battles the HBO drama has ever seen.
Tantalising first-look photos for episode three, The Queen’s Justice, reveal the long-awaited meeting between Daenerys Targaryen and Jon Snow.
One photo shows Jon and Davos Seaworth stepping off a boat and landing on a familiar beach, which appears to be Dragonstone, while another shows Daenerys sitting on her ancestral throne.
What’s more, after finally revealing his feelings to Missandai, Grey Worm is seen in full battle gear ready to go to war, possibly fuelling speculation that he’s next on the Game of Thrones chopping block.
Game of Thrones continues on HBO this Sunday in the US and will be simulcast on Sky Atlantic on Monday at 2am. Catch up on seasons one to seven on NOW TV.
