Video: HBO releases new In Production tease for Game of Thrones season 7
By Dan Selcke
HBO has released a new “In Production” tease for Game of Thrones season 7 into the world. It’s brief, but it’s the first officially sanctioned video having to do with the new season we’ve got in a while. Take a look:

That is a hand (not a hand we know, unless I’m mistaken) holding Oathkeeper, Brienne’s Valyrian steel sword. The sword is sweet.
Thanks to the appropriately named Oathkeepers Twitter account for tweeting this at us!
Other teases straight from HBO included the original “In Production” teaser released towards the beginning of the filming season…
…and a few clips of Jon, Sansa, and Arya mixed into a “What’s Coming to HBO in 2017” video, released in December.
It’s interesting that HBO has released a new “In Production” tease now, since filming on season 7 has by most measures wrapped up. But there’s still a lot of editing and special effects work to be done, so that falls under the umbrella of “In Production.” And if HBO is releasing a new teaser, however short, it might be gearing up to release something more robust in the near future. Color us attentive.
We’ll look out for a more official version of the video. Until then, enjoy the sword!
