HBO has provided the first glimpses of the seventh and penultimate season of Game of Thrones, in a new video that details what’s coming to the network next year. As a result, there’s only a tiny amount of new footage – less than two seconds, to be precise – of three members of the Stark family – Jon Snow (Kit Harrington), and Sansa (Sophie Turner), and Arya Stark (Maisie Williams).
Admittedly, there isn’t much here to be excited about. But for fans who can’t wait till the show’s new starting date – production on Game of Thrones Season 7 was delayed to accommodate the weather changes taking place in Westeros, and hence a likely premiere in mid-2017 – this is more than enough to whet their appetite.
[Likely spoilers ahead for those who haven’t seen the sixth season]
The most prominent change in the new footage is that of Arya, who seems to be back in her Northern Stark garb. That signals a return to Winterfell, and reuniting more of the Stark clan in the process after Sansa joined Jon in the previous season. And if the final episode of the season was any indication, Bran (Isaac Hempstead Wright) is on his way back to Winterfell too, now that he knows the lore of Jon’s real parents.
The two other shots, of Jon and Sansa, don’t provide any clues. Harrington is still donning the traditional Stark cloak that Sansa gave him, and Turner – except from a possible new hair wig – is shown walking near a weirwood tree.
And that’s all. Game of Thrones will return to HBO sometime in summer 2017. Are you excited about the seventh season? Shout out in the comments below or tweet to us @Gadgets360 with #GoT.
