"Star Wars Episode 7" spoilers revealed a new addition from the "Game of Thrones" cast as Miltos Yerolemou was reportedly hired to join the Disney film. Meanwhile, Gwendolyn Christie-who plays Brienne of Tarth in the George R.R. Martin-based series, remains mum on the plot.

In the "Star Wars Episode 7 spoilers by BBC, Miltos Yeromelous who plays the smooth-moving swordsman Syrio Forel was added to the cast.

"He played expert and athletic swordsman Syrio Forel in Thrones and has taken on several other parts which involve sword fighting during his career," the British news agency said. "His extensive experience will inevitably lead to speculation that he may use a lightsabre in the film."

However, the role he will play in "Star Wars Episode 7" is not going to be a major one.

British actress Gwendoline Christie, who plays Brienne of Tarth in "Game of Thrones" and Commander Lyme in two "Hunger Games" movies, joked at a Vanity Fair-sponsored party that "Star Wars" producers had gone to extraordinary lengths to maintain secrecy.

Meanwhile, Gwendoline Christie is in no mood to reveal "Star Wars Episode 7" spoilers as she joked that the producers have threated them against doing so.

"There's snipers trained on us right now," she said, according to New York Daily News.

The publication also talked to Adam Driver, who was in Venice to promote "Hungry Hearts," also did not reveal "Star Wars Episode 7" spoilers but he did share his experience while walking into the set, which is said to be tangible rather than pure CGI.

"I will say this - it's surreal," he said.

"Game of Thrones" alums Miltos Yeromelous and Gwendolyn Christie will join an impressive cast which includes: Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Mark Hamill-who will all reprise their roles as Princess Leia and Luke Skywalker, respectively--Adam Driver of "Girls," Daisy Ridley of "Blue Season," John Boyega ("Imperial Dreams"), Max Von Sydow ("Exorcist") and Oscar winner Lupita Nyong'o.
