This 'Game of Thrones' actress almost missed filming for Season 7

What would you do if you were cast in Game of Thrones only to discover that you had a scheduling conflict and could not return to film the next season? Yeah, well, Jessica Henwick feels you. The actress portrayed Nymeria Sand of Dorne on Game of Thrones, and due to a scheduling conflict, discovered that she may have to miss filming for Season 7. I wasn’t able to do it,” Henwick told Entertainment Weekly. “My schedule clashed. I was filming Iron Fist for six-to-seven months and they wouldn’t give me the time off. [GoT] was so massive for me in terms of my career and building my profile and as an experience in itself, I wanted to return." "So I spoke to Marvel and I managed to get a release," Henwick said in the EW interview. "I literally was flying back and forth while I was doing Iron Fist in New York to Belfast, even during Christmas break.”
