While Jaime and Davos have been in one scene together before — the iconic Dragonpit meeting in season seven — given that they didn't interact or even look at each other, it sounds like they must have become pretty close during filming on the new season.
It's not exactly groundbreaking that the two would meet up in the final season — considering they're both headed for Winterfell to help Daenerys and Jon try and stop the crazed Night King and his band of White Walkers — but it's still a rare insight into what's to come.
During the interview, Coster-Waldau also opened up about how Jaime went from trying to kill a child (Bran Stark) in the series premiere, to walking out on his incestuous sister/lover Cersei in order to help save the world in the season seven finale.
"I think it's all connected. When he says 'the things I do for love', that's one of the reasons he walks out in the end. He tells Cersei, after he learns she's pregnant: 'Hey, if we don't defeat the threat from the North, we'll all die and there won't be any future, for you, for the child, or for anyone.' So he is still guided by that idea. And he is a man of his word. He promised he would go north," the actor explained.
"The development of the character, in my mind, he's become more of what his father told him in the first season: 'I want you to become the man you were meant to be.' I think he is moving to that point and is getting very close to being that person."
Game of Thrones season eight is expected to premiere sometime in early to mid-2019.
