Daenerys will be held captive by a Dothraki horde in “Game of Thrones” Season 6. But it does have footage of camera teams tirelessly shooting scenes from the season, so it’s a kind of halfway look at what’s to come in Westeros and Essos.
In Winterfell, two boys are playing swords in the courtyard in what looks like a flashback scene. Rumours have suggested these actors could be portraying a young Ned and Brandon (or Benjen) Stark in happier days, as seen in Bran’s time-travelling visions. The ensemble cast for the fifth season included Emmy and Golden Globe victor Peter Dinklage, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Lena Headey, Emilia Clarke, Aidan Gillen, Kit Harington, Diana Rigg, Natalie Dormer, Maisie Williams and Sophie Turner. Allow me to cut his or her head off?
Former “Deadwood” star Ian McShane is also set to guest star in Game of Thrones season six.
The news comes as both HBO and Martin himself have yet to give word on the release of the TV show and the latest novel, “Winds of Winter“, respectively.
Instead, it’s widely assumed that Melisandre, who showed up at Castle Black at the very end of Season 5, will have something to do with Jon Snow’s resurrection.

“The first episode to kick off with [Melisandre] – without saying anything again – is astonishing”, Cunningham revealed in an interview, as reported by Watchers on the Wall.
