Game of Thrones season 7: Behind-the-scenes clip features some spoilers

Some beloved characters make an appearance

Thursday 08 June 2017 08:56

Fans of Game of Thrones have been treated to numerous snippets from the upcoming season, a sizeable trailer having been released last month.

Thanks to a three-and-a-half minute behind-the-scenes clip, people have yet more content to devour, untangling secrets held within.

Inside Game of Thrones: A Story Of Cloth looks at the costume work done by Michele Clapton, the designer speaking about why she loves working on the HBO show.

Between clips of Clapton speaking, brief glimpses at the cast and crew working are seen. At one notable moment, we see The Hound playing with fake snow backstage.

Another sees Jon Snow standing on a clifftop — previously we’ve only seen the Stark in Winterfell, the image confirming the King in the North will likely travel to visit his aunt, Daenerys.

As she continues to move forward, a group of armoured Lannister men are revealed.

Jacob Anderson's Grey Worm makes an appearance, standing before Danny's Unsullied army. Worm now wears a silver dragon sigil, as do all the Queen of Dragon's team.

Two towns to the North of King's Landing. One of three shots as the camera glides to the North above the map kept at Dragonstone.

Likely Euron Greyjoy, who currently hunts Theon and Yara, along with trying to take Danny as his wife. The ship looks surprisingly dragon-like. Also of note, Euron could hold the dragonbinder, a magical horn capable of subduing dragons. Perhaps Cersei and Euron will join forces - 'The enemy of my enemy is my friend'.

The knights of Arryn recently came to Jon Snow's rescue, helping reclaim Winterfell. More enemies, no doubt.

Likely someone from Dorne sharpening their spear, perhaps one of the Sand Snakes?

Home of The Night's Watch. Funny how Cersei seems preoccupied on human enemies when, as we all know, The White Walkers are coming.

Maisee Williams' Arya still wandering alone (minus the horse). Looks like she's managing OK though.

First glimpse of Jaime, standing upon the Queen's wonderful, unfinished map of Westeros. There's a ladder top right and miniature maps being used to finish the painting.

Cersei means business.

Probably towards one of Cersei's many enemies.

Back in King's Landing, Cersei's sitting upon the throne, Jaime and the Mountain by her side. Speculators believe that's Euron standing before them. The beginning of #TeamCerseiEuron.

Nikolaj Coster-Waldau's Jaime looking suitably aged. Probably stressed by the new regime. Oh, and all his children having been killed.

Poor Tyrion, hated by his family. Still, the Lannister gets to spend more quality time with Danny's dragons. This shot seems reminiscent of the season five poster where Tyrion stood at the front of a boat, meeting a dragon for the first time.

The pair still hitting it off. Could Tyrion ride a dragon this season?

Emilia Clarke's Daenerys enters Dragonstone. We have touchdown in Westeros! (Dragonstone is actually San Juan de Gaztelugatxe.)

Feisty.

Danny sits in Dragonstone's throne room, looking over her disciples.

Danny's army are already causing havoc in Westeros, here killing numerous Lannister men as they take the family's home.

Kit Harrington's Jon Snow makes an appearance.

Jon's closest confidents meet, Sansa by his side.

Aidan Gillen's Littlefinger trying to manipulate Sophie Turner's Sansa. Her character has gone through hell and back, chances are she's not going to let anyone - including Balish - boss her around.

As Littlefinger talks, The Wall's gates open. Who is coming through? Bran?!

Well, he's not on fire, but what seems to be the ship he's standing in. Perhaps Theon is tasked to tackle Euron's army and the two battle on the sea. Later, there are shots featuring boats on fire, no doubt linking to this quick glimpse.

Carice van Houten returns as Melisandre, who was last seen expelled from Winterfell.

She looks down upon Danny's new home, no doubt looking for the new Prince That Was Promised. As the shot passes, we get Littlefinger's 'Last best hope' line. Perhaps that's how Melisandre feels about Danny?

Looking pretty chilly.

Davos talks as a snowstorm crashes on, implying this shot is taken North of The Wall. Men/Wildlings defend themselves from an unseen threat/White Walkers.

Our money's on the Dothraki. The Lannisters really are taking a beating from Danny's many armies.

Likely Euron's men taking on Theon

Davos gives wise council as Danny and Tyrion appear, looming over the previously seen map of Westeros. Could Davos be meeting with them to talk about a partnership?

CleganeBowl hype

One of the more intriguing shots, let's explain...

Chances are, Littlefinger is talking about Lyanna Stark, whose buried in the crypt. Balish could very well be revealing to Jon his true parentage, revealed last season to viewers through Bran's vision.

The Unsullied demolishing the Lannister army

This horrible looking hand likely belongs to Jorah, last seen inflicted with Greyscale, which started in his arm. Imprisoned or being cured? Who knows.

The Lannister's are getting slaughtered in this trailer!

Why are they beyond The Wall?

It's happening!!!!!

Another marriage to form alliances?

'Fuck the Queen'

Danny flies above the Dothraki as they charge into battle. An awe-striking shot to finish a tantalising new trailer.

Fans also believe that — when you see Sansa in the crypts of Winterfell — you can see someone carrying Arya’s sword Needle in the background.

Other appearances include Jaime Lannister, Sam Tarly, Petyr Baelish, and Tyrion Lannister. Watch below.

Meanwhile, in other Game of Thrones news, a season seven photo may have revealed a huge plot spoiler concerning Arya. The HBO show returns 17 July.
