Not a crown-bearer in sight

Several stars of Game of Thronesare heading back to San Diego Comic-Con one last time this summer, but there will be a few key absences among the cast.

On Thursday, HBO revealed the list of Game of Thrones stars and creatives who'll appear on a panel to answer for Season 8, and pretty much anyone who ever wore a crown on the show is missing from the roundup.

The Game of Thrones panel will take place in Hall H on Friday, July 19 at 5:30 p.m. Pacific time, and fans can expect to see show stars Jacob Anderson (Grey Worm), John Bradley (Samwell Tarly), Nikolaj Coster-Waldau (Jaime Lannister), Liam Cunningham (Davos Seaworth), Nathalie Emmanuel (Missandei of Naath), Iain Glen (Ser Jorah Mormont), Conleth Hill (Varys), Maisie Williams (Arya Stark), and Isaac Hempstead-Wright (Bran Stark) join showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss and director-slash-executive producer Miguel Sapochnik in attendance.

Game of Thrones Stars Who Felt Just as Conflicted About Season 8 as You Did

Notably missing from that list are Emilia Clarke (Daenerys Targaryen), Kit Harington (Jon Snow), Sophie Turner (Sansa Stark), Alfie Allen (Theon Greyjoy), Lena Headey (Cersei Lannister), Peter Dinklage (Tyrion Lannister), Gwendoline Christie (Ser Brienne of Tarth), Carice Van Houten (Melisandre), Kristofer Hivju (Tormund), Jerome Flynn (Ser Bronn of the Blackwater), and Rory McCann (Sandor Clegane, aka The Hound), among other stars of the final season.

No word yet on what the cast and producers will discuss during the panel, but we have to imagine the Q&A session will be a highly interesting event indeed.

Game of Thrones is available for streaming on HBO.
