In an interview on BBC Radio 4, Jonathan Pryce (High Sparrow) revealed that he had been offered a role at the beginning of the show, but turned it down: "All I did was flip through [the script] and look at the names, look on these strange names, strange dialogue and I thought 'Oh, it's not for me.'" However, he later happily accepted the part of the High Sparrow, stating that "it's a great character. He comes into the story [...] quite relevant because of the present Pope [Francis] who presents himself as a man of the people who'll get down washing their feet and stuff ... yet he is this incredibly powerful figure who has the wherewithal to dispense justice." Coincidentally, Pryce would later play the part of the future Pope Francis in I due Papi (2019).
