The entertainment website wrote:
Mark Gatiss is set to reprise his role as Tycho Nestoris, the world's most fearsome banking executive, in the fifth season of HBO's fantasy hit. The Sherlock co-creator, writer, producer and actor is expected back on the Thrones set in Croatia next week.
Gatiss made this Thrones debut last season in the episode "The Laws of Gods and Men" where his Braavosi bank team agreed to fund Stannis Baratheon's war effort to capture the Iron Throne from Lannister control (the Lannisters are in heavy debt to the Iron Bank, which will stealthily fund a debtor's enemies if they are not repaid in a timely manner). At the time, it wasn't clear if the guest appearance was a one time thing, and producers haven't previously said whether he'll be back one way or another.
This is the first Games of Thrones Season 5 spoiler in a long while. It is still unclear whether Tycho Nestoris will be a major character.
In another Games of Thrones Season 5 spoiler, it looks like there's some pivotal scene that we are going to miss once the show resumes. According to TMZ, the show has been prohibited by Croatian city of Dubrovnik from filming a pivotal outdoor topless scene involving Cersei Lannister, played by Lena Headey. The production team has made a request to push through the racy sequence but the city's Church of St Nicholas rejected it. There's no word yet whether the scene will be included in the upcoming episodes but for those who haven't read the book, it was one of the many important part so you'll be the judge.
