Empire magazine put up a video interview with Nicolaj, Emilia, and Kit to their website, promoting the release of the box set. It includes quite some general speculation, and the cast refers to their season two shooting experience as well. Here is the official description of the video:
Season one of fantasy mega-hit Game Of Thrones hits DVD and Blu-ray this Monday March 5, and since we’re huge fans we leapt at the chance to talk to some of the cast this week. Nicolaj Coster-Waldau (Jaime Lannister), Emilia Clarke (Daenerys Targaryen) and Kit Harington (Jon Snow) chatted about which actors have the easiest time of it during filming, which characters they think will survive the series, and how long they personally would last on Westeros. Spoiler-free, unless you consider speculation spoiler-ific…
Hear Me Roar: The interview has quite a fresh feel to it, the guys are nice to listen too. In related news: while currently the HBO promotion machinery is aimed at the DVD/Blu-ray launch (apart from the trailers and posters, of course), we got word that the embargo on interviews and information on season two lifts on Monday, March 12. Expect a flurry of activities shortly afterwards.

Fun interviews. Echoing G_Lee’s comment about it not being the 5th… staring at the clock won’t make it go faster though. :(

I couldn’t hear clearly… what did Kit say about Daenerys?

That was actually a good interview. I particularly liked Emilia’s comment about the if you were dropped into Westeros bit.
Most interviews are pretty boring, but I guess it goes to show if you ask good questions you get interesting answers sometimes.

Jenish Kachhadia,
The media has false information, trust WiC.net to be up to date :) the video has been taken off the programme. Possibly because it coincides with the box set launch. It may be rescheduled for later or not. Hopefully we see it one day.

The actors sort of hint that they know what happens in ADwD… Nikolaj saying that Bran is becoming wise, Emilia saying that Jon Snow & Theon are her champions, and Kit not mentioning Jon Snow:)))

Great interviews. Some fresh questions, which is always nice.

I liked the interviewer smirking “might be a guilty conscience” to Jaime discussing Bran.
Reading the title made me realize how much I want an interviewer to actually quiz the actors on the show. See who paid attention to Season 1, and who knows about the upcoming novels.

ralia,
He said something like “I think Daenerys is a pretty… pretty tough girl [laughs]. I think she’s gonna get (go?) there.”

Great interview! Some fresh questions and fun answers. All three actors are articulate and charming.
On a frivolous note, Kit’s hair is beautiful. Please let’s have Richard Madden clean-shaven with long hair and his gorgeous accent in a video interview, please?

Oh my gosh, I LOVED that! There were so many things in 1 day, only 15 comments!
It was cute how Kit and Emelia are pulling for each other’s characters, though. And Nikolaj is pulling for Bran! Aww… :)
They are all incredible. <3 <3 <3

Hear, hear! Yes, more Robb speaking with that dreamy accent, purrrrrr! And OMG was Emilia fun! She was full of energy and excited and a joy to watch. Not a big fan of Dany but Emilia was fun.
