Update: Entertainment Weekly has confirmed Angela Lansbury will NOT be in the new season.
Sorry, Angela Lansbury fans. The former star of Murder, She Wrote is not going to invade Westeros anytime soon.
It’s been widely reported Lansbury might appear in season 7 of HBO’s Game of Thrones.
This is not accurate, the actress’ team told EW on Wednesday.
The rumor began over Labor Day weekend. The original source was a German website for tabloid newspaper Bild, which is described on Wikipedia as “notorious for its mix of gossip, inflammatory language, and sensationalism.”
By Wednesday, “Angela Lansbury” was trending on Facebook and searching her name and “Game of Thrones” produced dozens of results on Google News. But this is one Angela Lansbury TV mystery that’s now been solved.
HBO had no comment on the matter. Thrones returns next summer.
