Daenerys Targaryen is ready for Winterfell, alright. 

In a new batch of Game of Thrones Season 8 images released by Sky Atlantic, the UK’s show distributor, the Mother of Dragons is adjusting well at the Stark ancestral home. 

With only a little over two weeks to go until the HBO drama returns for its final season, these images are providing all the fodder we need to help with our countdown. 

However, the focus is clearly on Dany more than any other character. In one, she’s standing with Jorah Mormont in what appears to be Winterfell’s library — a newly constructed set — with a grim face. In another, she’s visibly blushing. Read more…

Emilia Clarke and Henry Golding are doing a Wham! inspired Christmas movie together

TwitterFacebook

Emilia Clarke is ready to embark on a new epic story centred around the destructive forces of fire and ice — and Christmas. 

The Game of Thrones star is going to be acting along side Henry Golding of Crazy Rich Asians in the upcoming Paul Feig movie Last Christmas. And yes, the movie is actually inspired by the 1984 Wham! song.

Our guess is that Clarke is the soul of ice that starts a fire in the heart of Golding, a man under cover. 

The casting was confirmed by Golding on Twitter, and he seems just as excited as we are. 

Finally I can start getting excited and share the news..@paulfeig and I will be back to business in London at the end of the year ❤️ https://t.co/pLI5S5S0zq

TwitterFacebook

What is dead may never die. That’s clear from the love between Game of Thrones actors Emilia Clark and Jason Momoa, which is still going strong even seven years after his character’s death on the show.

The iconic Khal Drogo might’ve been sacrificed in Season 1 (by Daenerys herself, actually), but Momoa has remained a fan of the show from afar. Now, as the show is closing in on its final days of shooting, he was welcomed back into the arms of old cast members to celebrate the end. And we mean literally into their arms.
