The producers of "Game of Thrones" Season 5 reportedly had a difficult time on the set with a scorpion. They realised while filming that it may not be easy to make the scorpion go in the direction of their choosing. Meanwhile, actor Jerome Flynn, who plays Bronn, shared some insight about his character. [Warning: Spoiler Alert!]

According to Making Game of Thrones, executive producers David Benioff and D. B. Weiss got to handle a scorpion firsthand at a production set of "Game of Thrones" Season 5. The crew was apparently filming a scene with the scorpion but was having trouble getting the scorpion to move in the right direction.

David Benioff and D. B. Weiss each took the large scorpion in their hands and played with it for some time, as it crawled from one hand to another. Mr. Benioff remarked that the scorpion was "pretty big" and if it stings him it would probably hurt a lot. Mr. Weiss jokingly warned his sons, Leo and Hugo, that the scorpion would come after them if they were not good.

While filming a scene, the crew members reportedly tried to change the sand curves to make the scorpion change direction. The director is said to have wanted a "no scorpion" sign on the scorpion's path to make it change its mind. No scorpions were reportedly harmed while filming the scene.

Meanwhile, Jerome Flynn, who plays Bronn in the show, shared some of his thoughts about his character in "Game of Thrones" Season 5. According to the interview posted on FlicksAndTheCity, the actor said that there are some changes on the way for his character.

The actor is heard saying that the upcoming season will have a different environment for his character compared with the previous seasons. The actor did not specify whether the character will follow the same storyline as the books because he was concerned that he might give away too much.

The release date of "Game of Thrones" Season 5 has still not been announced. Fans of the series are eagerly waiting to see what happens next to their favourite characters in the TV show. The premiere episode is expected to air in April 2015.
