Hodor! Hooray I’ve never been first to comment 🙂
I watched this last night on Facebook, it was really exciting to see everyone on the red carpet! 😀
Hodor
Maisie has really blossomed through the years. She looks so cute. Good for her!
Love Gerin Anthony coming back for this event. He hasn’t been on the show in ages, but it’s great to see his support!!
I’m surprised Carice was not there
Everyone looks amazing – especially Sophie Emilia and Maisie!
When are Davos, Missandei, and Bran going to get the Funko pops they deserve?
The Waif looks so different in real life. I didn’t even recognize her.
Missandei & Grey Worm = best dressed
Live for the pic of Sophie and Iwan. McElhatton looks beyond dapper in front of the Bolton banners; and the pic of Huisman holding Dany and Jorah makes me lmao for some reason.
Also…Portman kissing Brienne is so freaking cute. 🙂 And the new Dothraki guy is hot as hell. ? Oh! And anything Alfie is great…and Bran’s suit is kick ass.
Lol…let me go away before I give commentary on every pic. ?
New clip of Dany from ep1 online (Reuters)!
Sansa and Ghost! I want this to happen!
Aidan Gillen is tiny next to Sophie.
https://watchersonthewall.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Soph.jpg
Sophie’s eyes though…? Peter D. looking like he’d rather be somewhere else as usual lol.
And I think I’m the only one who thinks Emilia looks more striking as a blonde 🙂
Farmer Bob Umber?
Hannah Murray looks great.
I am jealous of Kristofer Hivju’s beard. That thing is epic.
Someone mentioned the tv appearances by some of the cast thee other day
I know we have Sophie on Conan tonight and John Bradley tomorrow on Conan. Emilia on Ellen on Thursday and Conan on Thursday.
Anyone else ?
RosanaZugey,
Agreed
And the dothraki guy! Daaaaamn! So hot
He looks familiar. I wanna say Spartacus but I don’t know.
Hmm, no Kit, Carice, and I’m shocked that Joe Dempsie didn’t come. I’d hate to be a past cast member that didn’t get invited.
Emilia is looking so stunning.
Wow, something that came to mind when watching Headey and Williams, think back to when they would have interacted on screen, this goes back to S1 Pilot, the dirty look Cersei gives Arya when she blurts out “Where’s the Imp” during the welcoming stand-to
Maisie was a child actor Headey was interacting with then, her clothing shows just how much the children are growing up and how they are all adults and so it’s interesting to consider how the mature actors relationship with the child actors would be developing off screen
Also interesting when looking at, say, Obara and Missandei who came into it in season, how actors/actresses who were part of the show when it was an up-and-coming phenomenon and others who came to be a part of it when it was epic interact, eg the newer ones are probably fans as much as cast
McElhatten looking much different from his character here. And so dignified holding the little white walker pop haha.
Real shame they held Carice back from the premiere. No idea why Dormer wasn’t there.
Deesensfan,
I heard that Maisie was going to be on Late Night with Seth Meyers Wednesday.
Iwan Rheon would have made a most excellent hobbit.
YgiTTe,
Brunette suits her infinitely more, brings out her striking eyes. Emilia and Sophie are breathtakingly beautiful.
Have to say that Liam was the best dressed man for me, nice to see some style pedigree.
I’m soooo hyped!
Jack Bauer 24,
What do you mean held her back?
I think Natalie and Carice probably had scheduled conflicts
Pigeon,
Cackling!
Young Dragon,
Thank you!
Surprised no other Greyjoy’s besides Alfie was there. No Pilou, Gemma, or Malahide.
Rosabel (Tyene), Indira (Ellaria), Siddig (Doran) weren’t there either, but Keisha, Jessica, and DeObia were.
Why’s it taken me so long to realise The Waif is also Candice from Fresh Meat? (British tv series from the makers of Peep Show). I really like Faye Marsay!
And lol at Liam Cunningham throttling the Melisandre toy.
Deesensfan,
Glad to help!
Jack Bauer 24,
Didn’t see Conleth Hill either.
Goodness. Attractive people. Attractive people everywhere.
I think he had a prior commitment.
I’m pretty sure that all except for the new characters and Kit could have attended if they wanted to. They have lives beside GoT and good for them. I think Kit has to stay away for obvious reasons or his character might just be dead and they don’t want him stealing the show, so to speak. I’ve reached the point where I kind of hope Jon Snow really is dead because I’m sick and tired of hearing about him. 😛
Was Elizabeth Webster not there?
singedbylife,
If he really is dead you will never stop hearing about him. That’s all anyone would ever talk about.
On a personal level, I have to say I love Nathalie and Sophie’s dresses (and appearance here). I’m such a sucker for classical block colours and styles, especially when combined with alternative makeup/jewelry like Nathalie has ❤️
Joe Naufahu is new and he went.
I can’t get enough of the cast photos / vines with the Funko toys. Could watch those all day.
Right?! I’ve suddenly…just *now* become interested in Daenerys’ storyline this season. ??
Holy cow, who else did not recognize Owen Teale in a suit, and Eugene Simon? (I didn’t know this was Lancel’s name and couldn’t figure out who it was)
And why is John kissing Samwell? We can’t even get a JS funco pop sighting up in here?
Hodor doesn’t have any style in the show, and no style in real life apparently. Seriously, what the hell is he wearing?
Jack Bauer 24,
Why would they do that though? Would she get bombarded with too many questions
Jack Bauer 24,
Flandal Gladdensnoot,
He was closing Macbeth at Berkeley Rep.
Do Jacob and Nathalie make a great couple or what?
One of the guys from Of Monsters and Men is holding a JS pop.
Sansa will end up being the Nights Queen.
Cos who wouldn’t want a queen like that.
Kit is doing Dr. Faustus so he wouldn’t be there either way. Carice is pregnant but maybe had some other events to attend or so. Otherwise she would’ve been there. Strangely no Pilou Asbaek or Natalie Dormer who I would expect to be at premiere but probably commitments elsewhere. I’m missing Gwendoline and it was nice from Nikolaj to send her message via one interview. Sophie looks beautiful as other ladies but she wins this one.
Ugh. You and me, both. A million characters and just as many storylines, and we always have to hear the stupid, “Is Jon Snow dead,” question. Yes!!! He’s dead!! If you tools want to get somewhere you should be asking if he’s coming back…not if he’s dead, because the answer will always be yes.
RosanaZugey,
I can see how it bothers people at this point
But the Jon snow phenomena is kinda cool to see – never seen that about a fictional character and tv show. Goes to show how awesome game of thrones is 🙂
Isaac <3
I see dead people
Jon Stark,
I applaud Kristian Nairn for not giving 2 fucks what people think and dressing what he feels comfortable in.
These people are too attractive. I can’t handle this.
alienarea,
VALAR MORGHULIS….
Freaking AMAZING!!! thank you WotW
Apollo,
Nikolaj fucked up! The look on his face Haha!
Dormer was at the Irish Film and Television awards on Saturday night in Dublin (looking absolutely beautiful) which I found a bit surprising as I would have thought these would be a lot more fun but she must have had other commitments also to keep her in Europe
Jeez, Gethin Anthony was there? That show is the party that never ends 🙂
OMG OMG NEW TRAILER!!!
NEW TRAILER!!!!!
New trailer!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EI0ib1NErqg
Jack Bauer 24,
Was told for a fact through first person interaction, not word of mouth, Natalie Dormer is ticked off. She may very well have had a prior commitment, but that would serve as a convenient excuse for yesterday. For example, there have been others in past seasons who have reworked their schedules once they learned the date of the premiere. Something she herself did in the third season. Guessing it’s one of the 2 C’s. Cash or Creative. Most things in Hollywood are. Check your own sources at this site for validation and more info. I’m positive they’ll have heard it too. Ask about others as well. My info is limited to this one person due to the first person connection but I have heard suggestions of discontent starting to pop up with others as well.
Kristofer is wonderful as always !
Man, that was Finn ? Didnt recognize him with the beard ! I hope Loras will sport it during the season !
You are correct, he played Liscus.
Well, this trailer is about 10000 times better than the first!
Natalie looks amazing. She is surely one of the most attractive ladies of the cast.
Yeah, Pigeon, that trailer #2 is meaty. Too bad Tyrion getting grilled/eaten by Rhaegal is a 95% likely fake-cut. That would almost make me watch again.
Connor,
hey thanks for posting it here,…….man o man ….I could watch this 1000 times more
Damn! I hope that was not Ramsey getting his hands on poor Pod! That would be nasty…
It looks like red tents, so likely the Lannister camp in Riverrun?
OMG Sansa kissing Ghost… Sansa/John marriage confirmed
Hee I take it you are too young to remember the tv show Dallas. and that was before social media was availble for fans to go crazy. Yikes.
Joffrey’s Cunt,
Holy sh*t!!!!!!! That was amazing!
Deesensfan,
It is Spartacus!!
I forgot his name but he dies when Nazir(might have forgoten his name, he’d Aggron’s lover) gets injured and Spartacus and Mira have to close his wounds with fire, witch draws the Romans to them
This guy and 2 other, i think, sacrifice themselves to distract the Romans
Valaquen,
Silly me, didn’t see this comment. 😛
Mihnea,
Yeah, he’s Crixus on Spartacus. He gets beheaded by the Romans (specifically, I think it was Marcus’s annoying son who did it.)
Pigeon,
Bronn, gotta be. Meaning, I hope it’s Bronn.
Nice photos. However, Dean S Jagger (Smalljon Umber) could have worn something smarter than rolling up in jeans held up with braces! Looks like he’s just got off his horse after riding the range 😉
Even Kristian Nairn (Hodor) looked better dressed in his leather jacket with his ‘Death Metal’ medallion and that ain’t saying much!
Nathalie and Jacob – beauty overload!
Emilia, Jacob, Nathalie and Joe’s stylists really earned their pay on this event.
Nathalie’s dress and styling is everything – it’s what I would wear and how I would wear it.
Ticked off about her storyline or something to do with bts problems?
Carice wasn’t there because her dad died on 7th april. It was just announced today.
