There were a lot of negative comments pertaining to the ending of the most-watched Game of Thrones final season but throughout the course of this series, a lot of people were attuned with the series. The theme song alone is enough to get people remembering the good times they've had watching GoT, especially during the earlier seasons.

What should have happened in the last season

When Arya finally jumped on-screen and stabbed the evil Night King himself shattering the icy fiend into thousands of shards of evil pieces, a lot of people were questioning this moment and although it was satisfying, there was actually an alternate plan that the series almost followed.

Maise Williams, the ever eccentric sword-wielding Stark, revealed that that moment was actually originally planned out for no other than Jon Snow! The king of the north could have been the one to take on the greatest enemy in the whole Game of Thrones universe.

Maise revealed that the actor behind Jon Snow, Kit Harrington, first expected that he was going to be the one to actually kill the Night King. Her statement to The Hollywood Reporter even elaborated that Kit Harrington stated that it was actually going to go that way and that someone told him during season three that he was supposed to kill the evil Night King. Maise then said that Kit Harrington then read the script and found out it was Arya the whole time.

According to Maise, she was glad that it was Arya who actually killed the Night King giving her the best storyline of the other main characters in the final season. It is true that Arya's character really did stand out especially during the final season.

Was it a change in direction or was it the plan all along?

There are two possibilities when it comes to whether or not this was planned. Either the show's very own producers were originally trying to mislead Kit Harrington back in season three, or that the plans actually did change over the span of six years.

It could actually also be a kind of harbinger of what is expected to come in the upcoming A Song of Fire and Ice books. The Author George RR Martin has also previously stated that what happened during the entire series is not necessarily what people can expect with the upcoming Winds of Winter as well as A Dream of Spring books.

George RR Martin wrote on his own site Not A Blog first asking how will it all end then explaining that if you are expecting the same ending as what happened in the show, or something different, "well... yes. And no." the statement continues with both yes and no giving a pretty uncertain answer as to what is to be expected.
