With all of the hype and news about season 6 of The Game of Thrones this is something you do not want to miss.
Season 6 is based on Game thrones is based on the unreleased sixth novel of the A Song of Ice and Fire book series, The Winds of Winter, including with a significant amount of material from the fourth and fifth books, A Feast for Crows and A Dance with Dragons. HBO features episodes which run concurrently but follow different sets of characters. The new season premieres on April 24, 2016.
In a recent interview with HBO’s Game of Thrones leading lady, Maisie Williams, Williams discussed what it was like working on the show for season 6.
It was amazing. I remember being at the premiere with David [Benioff] and Dan [Weiss] and Sophie [Turner, who plays Sansa] and I was like, “Do I get to go to Croatia this year?” and they were like, “Yeah!” I was so, so happy because every year, Sophie’s gone off to Croatia and had a banging time. I’d be like, “Yeah, it was really, really great in rainy Belfast. I had a whale of a time.” Don’t get me wrong, Belfast is amazing, but everyone needs a bit of sun every now and then. When Sophie learned that she couldn’t go to the hot, sunny places and I could, I think she died a bit on the inside. I was totally thrilled.
