Dormer hinted that Margaery would remain a threat to Cersei.

The actress also believes that Margaery has no interest in ascending to the Iron Throne, especially after seeing what that quest for power has done to her previous husbands.
During a “Game of Thrones” panel at New York Comic Con Thursday afternoon, a fan asked the actress how she felt about being compared to the muppet character. After her naked walk of shame from the Great Sept of Baelor to the Red Keep last season, Cersei is finally free from the High Sparrow’s (Jonathan Pryce) clutches, but she is eager to launch a fresh attack on the person she deems responsible for her humiliating fall from grace.
Natalie Dormer was bullied at school for having “pig nostrils”. “My theory is they’re going to have to dissolve the Iron Throne to defeat the White Walkers … and then I think out of the ashes will come the tree people, they’ll grow [out the new world]”.
The fun twist shared by Jones in interview with Variety has raised our eyebrows, “Loras could probably try and turn Jon Snow gay”. “Margaery is trying to be Cersei; she wants to be the mother of the king”.
Of course, ever since his apparent death during the season five finale, Jon Snow (Kit Harington) is continually brought up at these events, as everyone wants to know if he really is dead or not. It’s like the Cold War’s mutually assured destruction.
As for Loras, who remains in jail, the actor explained that fans should be anxious for him because he’s now in the hands of a few people who are “very nasty”. Bran, Hodor, Tyrion [will survive] to bring peace back to the realm.
“Game of Thrones” Season 6 is expected to begin airing on HBO next year and already, a sense for how the upcoming season evolves has been revealed.
She got questions about other characters, too, with a fan hoping that her character, Irene Adler, or (Spoilers!) Moriarty would have a brother to also be Moriarty and face Sherlock with her-to which Natalie gave perhaps the most cheered answer of the night, “Why does a woman need a man’s help?”

Jones agrees: “There are many strong female characters [in “Thrones”], most of which are at the helm of individual plot lines”.
