“Game of Thrones” ended in May 2019, angering fans with its lackluster final season, but people are still asking its stars, years later, if they should somehow consider returning to Westeros.

Sophie Turner – Makes her industry debut as Sansa Stark, a cunning strategist and eldest daughter of the powerful Northern family, House Stark.
While speaking to Variety about his new project “Joan,” KJ Yossman mentioned the show that made Turner famous: “Will we ever see Sansa Stark return?” Turner basically said no, but Also He admits that he is curious to know what the role would be like today.
“Maybe,” Turner said. “I mean, it has to be the right cast and the same crew or else I'm not coming back, and it will be season 9, and I don't think we're going to do season 9, but I loved playing Sansa, and where would she be in five years and will she still be a good ruler?

What happens to Sansa Stark at the end of Game of Thrones?
In case you've forgotten (or, understandably, completely missed the “Game of Thrones” finale), this is where Sophie Turner's Sansa Stark series ended. TO A lot Viewers found Sansa annoying at the beginning of the series, and understandably so; During the first season of the show, she was very whiny and very determined to marry the detestable Prince Joffrey Baratheon (Jack Gleeson). After witnessing the execution of her father Ned Stark (Sean Bean) at the hands of Joffrey, Sansa changes quite a bit and the audience soon realizes that her true intelligence comes from how she manages to survive in the shark tank known as King's Landing. (There are two great examples of this in season 2: when he stops Joffrey from killing the court jester because it would be unlucky on Joffrey's name day, and when he quietly rejects Joffrey just before the Battle of Blackwater Bay.)

However, in the series finale, Sansa draws on her lifelong intelligence and wit and negotiates for an independent North, while her brother Bran (Isaac Hempstead-Wright) inexplicably becomes King of the Seven Kingdoms. As Turner pointed out, Sansa becomes Queen in the North and by all indications she's doing a pretty good job… but the idea of us returning to Westeros to check out her reign is highly unlikely.
