This international trailer for Game of Thrones season 7 helps set more of the scene
America isn’t the only country excited to get back to the world of Westeros for Game of Thrones season 7, and there’s a trailer to prove it.
Game of Thrones isn’t just an American phenomenon anymore. It’s spread all around the world — and that includes Greece. Thanks to our sister site, Winter is Coming, we have a look at the show’s latest Greek teaser for season 7.
An aside: Greece is hardcore when it comes to watching Game of Thrones. If we don’t miss our guess without knowing any Greek but being very good at context clues, this channel appears to air the show live as it airs in the United States (despite that being 4 a.m. local time, apparently) and then re-airs it at a more appropriate hour for people who don’t stay up late just to get their fix.
A brief warning: there will be some spoiler discussion below.
WiC has an excellent screenshot breakdown of things for a closer visual look. Let’s pull out some key points. The biggest, of course, would be the battle shots. As WiC notes, they now include the Lannister army. That finally, finally confirms the Lannister-Targaryen showdown hinted at in the previous American trailer and confirmed months ago by spoilers.
When will this happen? Well, we know Daenerys is on Dragonstone in the first episode, and rumor has it she’s still there for at least part of episode 3. In other words, this big clash may end up somewhere in episodes 5, 6, or maybe even 7. However, battle episodes have a tendency to be the second to last of any given season. Smart money, therefore, would look to episode 6.
Speaking of the Lannisters, however, Cersei, as we can see thanks to WiC, has added fur to her all-black ensembles. This gels with photos from a shoot in Croatia in late December, which had Lena Headey on hand and snow on the ground. That doesn’t mean it’ll snow in King’s Landing in the very first episode, but it does mean that the temperature will keep going down — and that it’s noticeable even in the middle of the country, where King’s Landing is located.
Don’t worry: you can watch without knowing Greek. The audio’s still in English.
