The way the dreaded Night King was dispatched in Game of Thrones’ final season didn’t just come as a surprise to fans, but to star Kit Harington as well. According to co-star Maisie Williams, whose beloved character Arya Stark wound up being the hero who vanquished the evil ice lord, Harington spent seasons thinking the Night King’s fate belonged to Jon Snow.

Talking to THR, Williams said “[Harington] expected it to go that way, too, and he even said ‘It was going to go that way. Someone told me in season three that I was going to kill The Night King.’

“And then he read the script, and it was Arya the whole time,” Williams laughed. “Yeah, I think it would’ve been too obvious. I’m glad that it was Arya, honestly. I think I had the best storyline of the final season.”

Williams currently stars in Disney’s The Mutants, which finally found theatrical release after years of delay and then postponement due to COVID. Our review of The New Mutants said it’s an “entertaining, if at times formulaic small-scale genre movie” that didn’t deserved to be shelved for so long.

Meanwhile, Game of Thrones executive producers D.B. Weiss and David Benioff settled on their next project, teaming with Rian Johnson for a Netflix series inspired by Liu Cixin’s award-winning book trilogy The Three-Body Problem (Remembrance of Earth’s Past).

One of the most iconic challenges in Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2 is S-K-A-T-E, which has you collecting letters scattered across each course as you do your best tricks. Until now, it has been limited to the virtual world, but Tony Hawk got to experience it for real.

Hawk was surprised to find that his halfpipe had been turned into a real S-K-A-T-E challenge when he arrived there on Friday, with balloons floating along the rails above the ramp. He quickly collected all the letters.

He didn’t, however, see the secret tape located in the “hidden room” of his facility. In the games, these are generally only accessible by performing some seriously impressive jumps and grinds. In the iconic Warehouse level from the first game, for instance, it’s in a small booth located above the halfpipe.

If you’ve followed legendary skater Tony Hawk over the last few years, then you’ve likely seen him yell “Do a kickflip!” at unsuspecting kids in the wild. If they can do one successfully, he usually has a prize for them such as a new skateboard, but Hawk challenged YouTuber the Hacksmith to do something even more impressive: Design a skateboard that can do a kickflip on its own to celebrate the release of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2.

Looking much like a normal skateboard until you look underneath, Hacksmith’s self-kickflipping skateboard can pop up into the air and land back on its wheels without any input from a skater. All he has to do is press a few buttons on his DualShock 4 controller, which is connected to the board’s electronics via Bluetooth. While it’s one of the easiest tricks to perform in the video game, it’s something that many skaters, especially newcomers, struggle with for months.

After trying out fireworks and rocket engines, the final design was a little less terrifying. It used a mousetrap-style spring to force the board into a spin, and it works with or without a skater riding it. Of course, you still have to be pretty coordinated to stay on the board after the flip, regardless of if it’s flipping itself initially.
