HBOThe actor who plays Jaime Lannister in Game of Thrones has spoken out amidst a hacking saga at channel HBO – that has seen an episode leaked four days early, among stolen data and social media passwords.
Nikolaj Coster-Waldau told EW Morning Live things have been ‘tense’ since hackers took over, saying ‘everyone connected to HBO are getting calls telling them their e-mails have been compromised’.
Hackers stole data including GoT scripts and although many fans are trying to avoid spoilers, there are plenty online.

He said:
HBOWe are not in communication with the hacker and we’re not going to comment every time a new piece of information is released.
It has been widely reported that there was a cyber incident at HBO. The hacker may continue to drop bits and pieces of stolen information in an attempt to generate media attention. That’s a game we’re not going to participate in.
