A hint from actor Rory McCann suggests that his character Sandor Clegane (The Hound) and his brother Gregor Clegane (The Mountain) might finally face off in Game of Thrones Season 8, giving fans the infamous “Cleganebowl” that has been anticipated since Season 1.
Revealed in an exclusive Season 8 slideshow of images from EW, McCann says of his character “There will be a chance of squaring up to his brother and facing those demons.”
While this doesn’t absolutely confirm a confrontation, it does strongly suggest it will happen. Both The Mountain and The Hound are featured on one of various covers of Entertainment Weekly’s upcoming Game of Thrones Special Collector’s Double Issue, which can be seen below.
