'Game of Thrones' season 7 plot spoilers news: Sophie Turner cried after reading script; producers not interested in prequel

"Game of Thrones" star Sophie Turner, who plays Sansa Stark in the epic fantasy series, said that the upcoming season 7 is "amazing" and revealed that she cried after reading the scripts for it.

"Game of Thrones" season 7 is currently in production. The cast and crew are shooting in Northern Ireland and in various regions of Spain.

Although the "Game of Thrones" cast members may be busy with filming, some of them attended this year's Emmy Awards, where the HBO series was the night's big winner. At the event, Turner hinted at what's in store for the upcoming season.

"Um, some crazy dragon stuff happens," she told Entertainment Tonight on the red carpet. "The whole thing's amazing and that's all I can say," she teased.

But in an interview with Access Hollywood, the actress opened up and shared that she was so overwhelmed by the season 7 scripts that she ended up in tears afterwards.

"I did [cry], it was just like so [...] overwhelming, not even in like a sad way, I was just like, 'HOLY CRAP! I can't believe 'Game of Thrones' is doing this and THIS is happening to the character!'" she said.

Season 7 will be the penultimate season of "Game of Thrones." It will only consist of seven episodes — three fewer than the usual 10. Season 8 will have six episodes.

Meanwhile, "Game of Thrones" showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss appear to have no plans whatsoever of producing a sequel to the popular fantasy drama.

At the Emmys, Benioff addressed the possibility of putting together a sequel for the small screen, telling Entertainment Weekly that it is a topic for "Game of Thrones" author George R.R. Martin, who is an executive producer of the HBO series.

"It's a great world that George created," he said. "I think it's a very rich world, and I'm sure there will be other series set in Westeros, but for us, this is it. That's really a question for George," he added.

"Game of Thrones" season 7 will premiere on HBO in 2017.
