The final episode of Game of Thrones aired on Sunday, and much of the series’ cast have been posting heartwarming tributes to their respective characters and expressing gratitude for their time on the show. One of the many actors to share set photos this week was Carice van Houten, the woman best known for playing Melisandre. Her character may have died a few episodes back, but the actor waited until the series was over to share pictures from her final day on set.

“A minute after my last shot (burning the trenches) and a minute before Dan started to speech which made me cry like a baby,” she wrote in her first post.

While her days playing the Red Woman are over, the actor has plenty of other projects in the works. You can see her this year in Domino, the upcoming Brian De Palma crime/drama that also stars fellow Game of Thrones actor, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau (Jaime Lannister). She will also be sharing the screen with her real-life partner, Guy Pearce. The film is hitting theaters on May 31st.
