Ian McShane is throwing some major shade at "Game of Thrones" fans.
**Spoiler alert: If you're not caught up with the latest season, stop reading here.**
The British actor appeared on the HBO series last year, making his debut as Brother Ray in a very crucial episode.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}During that episode it was revealed that The Hound, played by Rory McCann, was still alive. But, prior to the episode airing, McShane shared a few too many details about his role, making many "Thrones" fans extremely upset.
"Can you believe it? 'Oh, you're giving it away.' Firstly, you love it," the 74-year-old actor told Empire magazine in an interview published in its April 2017 issue. "Secondly, you'll have forgotten by the time it comes out...and what am I giving away? A character beloved by everybody returns. Get a f**king life."
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}The "Deadwood" actor argues that some "Thrones" fans may put a little too much stake into the show.
"The show is huge but some fans seem to identify with it [too closely]," he continued. "You want to say, 'Have you thought about your lifestyle? Maybe you should get out a little more.'"
As McShane told The Telegraph last year, he has zero apologizes when it comes to spoilers.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}"You say the slightest thing and the Internet goes ape," he said. "I was accused of giving the plot away, but I just think, 'Get a f**king life. It's only t*ts and dragons.'"
"Games of Thrones" returns with season 7 this summer.
