Game of Thrones Season 6 Trailer: “Blood of My Blood”

facebooktwitterreddit

With “The Door” having now aired all across the world, HBO has put out the trailer for next week’s episode, which has the kickass Dothraki-tinged title of “Blood of My Blood.”

As always, a reminder for those who are looking for my full-scale breakdown: that goes up at the usual time of 6pm EST, Monday. But until we can get to that, here’s the trailer by itself to hold you over.

If you haven’t seen “The Door” yet, or have but don’t want to know what’s coming next, cease reading, because here there be SPOILERS.

Here’s the synopsis:

Episode #56: “Blood of My Blood”

Debut: SUNDAY, MAY 29 (9:00-10:00 p.m. ET/PT)

An old foe comes back into the picture. Gilly (Hannah Murray) meets Sam’s (John Bradley) family. Arya (Maisie Williams) faces a difficult choice. Jaime (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) faces off against the High Sparrow (Jonathan Pryce).

Written by Bryan Cogman; directed by Jack Bender.

Some other notes from the trailer itself:

  • It looks like we are picking up almost directly where we left off with the end of tonight’s episode. I don’t know if that’s the first scene, but I kind of hope it is.
  • Sam and Gilly having dinner at Sam’s parents house looks like the worst idea Sam has ever had, and that’s saying a lot.
  • Margaery does actually look like she’s about to be Walk of Shamed in this shot, doesn’t she? The Tyrell army in formation looks badass. As for that statement about the High Sparrow tearing the Lannister family apart…well, we’ll see how it goes.
  • And finally, Daario is going to wish to have Ser Jorah’s tempering presence back mighty soon, isn’t he? Without the older man to counterbalance his mouth, he’s just about sticking his foot in it all over the place. Way to underestimate her, son.
