Take the Black Live: Game of Thrones cast reunion, Arya’s final scene, and much more

Welcome to an especially jam-packed episode of Take the Black Live, the show where myself and Cheryl Wassenaar of Culturess talk through the latest news from the world of Game of Thrones, A Song of Ice and Fire, and beyond. A weirdly large amount of stuff happened this week, so let’s get to it!

Our topics:

• Every year, HBO produces supplementary material to go with each new season of Game of Thrones. For the final season, they’re planning something big, and we’re already getting a little misty in anticipation.
• Maisie Williams drops hints about Arya’s final scene. We chew on that. How do we want Arya’s journey to end? “A happy ending for Arya isn’t a normal happy ending.”
• HBO is making a Game of Thrones prequel show, and Mulholland Drive star Naomi Watts may be part of it. Apparently, I am a Naomi Watts superfan, because I gush about this rumor pretty hard.
• A Song of Ice and Fire illustrator drops hints about The Winds of Winter coming out in the near future and I try to keep from getting angry with him for getting fans’ hopes up.
• And in non-Game of Thrones-related news, Netflix’s superhero shows are imploding. What’s with that?

Thanks for watching, all! We’ll be back next Wednesday at 4:00 p.m. CST for another episode of Take the Black Live! Join us on our Facebook page then.
