WARNING: Spoilers for HBO’s Game Of Thrones….

The Season 6 premiere of Game Of Thrones was certainly an anticipated one, with the fate of so many characters left in question a year ago at the end of Season 5. Is Jon Snow really dead? Who exactly has taken Daenerys captive? Did Sansa and Theon survive their leap off the high walls of Winterfell? Will Arya remain blind? Where is Bran? What will Cersei and her twin brother/lover Jaime do now that yet another child of theirs has been murdered? And will Cersei have her revenge against the High Sparrow and his Sparrow minions who imprisoned and humiliated her? What will happen to Margaery and her brother Loras, both of whom are still prisoners of the High Sparrow. Will King Tommen ever leave his room? Where is Littlefinger and what’s his next move? What will happen in the War of Five Kings now that Stannis is dead? Will anyone call out the Red Woman now that her prophecies have been proven false? And will the Wildlings and the Night’s Watch men work together to defeat the invading White Walkers?

Titled “The Red Woman,” Episode 6.1, I’m sad to report, does not have anyone going off on Melisandre, the Red Woman, regarding her seriously faulty prophesies, but, it does thankfully touch base with all the aforementioned characters except Bran, Littlefinger, and the White Walkers.

Fan favorite Game of Thrones star Maisie Williams, who plays Arya Stark on the hit HBO series, recently paid a little visit to a hobby shop to surprise some fans of the show.

Williams took on the role of a cashier at the shop who’s not so familiar with Game of Thrones to prank the fans that showed up, though no effort was made to hide her appearance—she didn’t get some crazy multi-hour makeup application to turn her into a senior citizen or anything. Still, she makes sure to deny being who everyone thinks she is just to mess with their heads. Good times are had by all.

You can see how it all went down in the video below.

Last month, we finally got to see the first full trailer for Season 6 of Game of Thrones. Now, HBO has released a second full trailer for the highly anticipated upcoming season.

Watch the new trailer here below.

HBO has announced that Game of Thrones is getting into the post-episode talk show game.

The show will be titled After the Thrones, and it is the first project to come from HBO’s new partnership with Bill Simmons. The show will air weekly, and will be hosted by Andy Greenwald and Chris Ryan of The Ringer, which is the name of Simmons’ new website.

I don’t typically cover who’s dating who in the celebrity world, but every so often there’s a coupling that just needs to be talked about. And this time around, it’s the actors who play Jon Snow and Ygritte on the popular HBO series Game Of Thrones.

For a while now, it’s been speculated that Jon Snow actor Kit Harington and Ygritte actress Rose Leslie were dating in real life, and the two have made it a point over the years to deny the rumors. But, now the former co-stars have confirmed it by making their first public appearance together, which was on the red carpet at Sunday night’s Olivier Awards at The Royal Opera House in London, England.

Check out the images here below of the actors together on the red carpet, as well as some video.
