The Game of Thrones cast is not happy about spoilers leaking out ahead of their Season 7 premiere.

EW spoke to several cast members about the paparrazi pictures and alleged spoilers that have spilled out onto the Internet while they were filming the most recent set of episodes.

"I get so angry about it like we all do," said Kit Harington, who plays Jon Snow. "Even some publications I would think better of using them."

Game of Thrones producers are notoriously tight-lipped and have gone to great lengths in keeping the show's surprises secret for fans. However, that hasn't stopped some sites from running alleged spoilers that break down episodes month in advance.

Littlefinger actor Aidan Gillan expressed disappointment at how the spoilers ruined the hard work he put in keeping the show's secrets. "I'd never say anything to anybody — even my closest family members. I take security very seriously. Maybe that's just the Littlefinger in me."

However, Conlith Hill, who plays Varys on the show, claims that some of these "spoilers" aren't accurate. "They get it all wrong anyway. They'll take a photo between two actors between shots and say they're in a scene together."

To help keep some uncertainty in the show, Game of Thrones producers refuse to comment on leaks and have increasingly upped security around sets during filming.

However, not every Game of Thrones cast member is as critical about leaks. Gwendolyn Christie encouraged fans not to look for spoilers, but acknowledged that it comes from a place of excitement. "I love the element of surprise," she said. "There's something wonderfully child-like about receiving something you didn't expect and the more your favorite TV show and films that can be protected the better. But I understand people are excited."
