Last night, before the True Blood season finale, HBO aired some footage from the set of the upcoming Game of Thrones series. They also launched a production blog to keep fans up to date. Unlike the last mysterious tease, there was a lot to be seen in last night’s segment – interviews with some of the stars, producers and – of course – George R.R. Martin himself. The author weighed in with some hefty praise, saying that when he walked on the set, he was glad that they “got it” and that fans of the series will be very happy. Time will tell – the series will begin on HBO next spring. In the meantime, here are a couple of teasers from last night’s preview.
