“None of the cast had received the scripts prior, and one by one they started falling down to their deaths.”
Orsi also saidthat the table read was an emotional moment for the cast of the series as everyone stood and applauded for 15 to 20 minutes after they finished.
“It was amazing,” she said. “By the very end, everyone looked down and looked up and tears were in their eyes.”
Former "Game of Thrones" actor Jason Momoa visited the set and told Entertainment Weekly that the upcoming season will be the greatest thing that has ever aired on TV.
