Westeros

April is coming, and it’s time for HBO to kick Game of Thrones promotion into high gear. Earlier today we shared the news of the “You Win or You Die” video being put online… and to follow it up, there’s a bevy of new character images to be seen. Starting here, you’ll find images of a number of the new cast members, including the very best shot of Ygritte yet.

Besides that, HBO’s also provided us a Q&A with executive producers and chief writers David Benioff and D.B. Weiss which, for the most part, is quite good… but we had to leave a little editorial preface, because sometimes the show’s producers and actors put forward one particular notion that we find a little bit questionable! Read it for yourself here. This will be the first of two Benioff & Weiss interviews we’ll be bringing you, as our account of the roundtable interview we took part in with the executive producers will be up some time next week.
