Game of Thrones season 7 photos: What do they reveal?

1 of 15

Jaime (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) guarding Cersei (Lena Headey)

HELEN SLOAN/HBO

At the end of season 6, Jaime looked outright horrified at Cersei's destructive ascension to the Iron Throne. But at some point, he's back by her side.

Daenerys (Emilia Clarke)

HELEN SLOAN/HBO;

HBO's first season 7 promo showed Dany sitting in the previously unseen throne room at Dragonstone (the ancestral seat of House Targaryen before Stannis Baratheon took it over). This looks like another angle on that new chamber.

Arya (Maisie Williams)

HELEN SLOAN/HBO

Bundled up and in a tavern, this looks like a Kingsroad stopping point. But where is the lone wolf going and who is she looking at?

Continued on next slide.

4 of 15

Meera (Ellie Kendrick) tows Bran (Isaac Hempstead Wright)

HELEN SLOAN/HBO

Hodor made this look so easy, right, Meera? Not much to be gleaned from this one (other than Bran now looks like he's 27).

5 of 15

Sam (John Bradley) and Gilly (Hannah Murray)

HELEN SLOAN/HBO

Hitting the books together, presumably in Oldtown. An uber-fan translated Gilly's parchment and discovered she's reading about the legend of Azor Ahai, the hero who will supposedly be reborn (Dany? Jon Snow?) and save the world.

Missandei (Nathalie Emmanuel)

Macall B. Polay/HBO

A new costume for Dany's advisor thats more appropriate for the Westeros chill.

Continued on next slide.

7 of 15

Davos (Liam Cunningham) being Davos.

HELEN SLOAN/HBO

This looks like the Great Hall at Winterfell, which would make sense. Could the Onion Knight be left in charge at some point?

Daenerys' landing party

Macall B. Polay/HBO

Nobody thought Dany would spend the entire new season at sea, but here's proof she reaches a destination in Westeros with some key allies intact.

9 of 15

Littlefinger (Aidan Gillen) and Sansa (Sophie Turner)

HELEN SLOAN/HBO

That's Winterfell, and Sansa's body language toward Lord Baelish is quite frosty.

Continued on next slide.

10 of 15

The Hound (Rory McCann)

HELEN SLOAN/HBO

Last we saw The Hound, the Brotherhood Without Banners asked him to join their fight against the army of the dead. Looks like he’s headed North to take out some wights (or winter has come down to him).

11 of 15

Lyanna Mormont (Bella Ramsey)

HELEN SLOAN/HBO

The young breakout badass is back, presumably at Winterfell, with Littlefinger lurking behind her. Watch your back!

12 of 15

Varys (Conleth Hill)

HELEN SLOAN/HBO

Last seen on Dany's flagship. A stern look and a new costume for The Spider.

Continued on next slide.

13 of 15

Tormund (Kristofer Hivju) and Brienne (Gwendoline Christie)

HELEN SLOAN/HBO

Something for the shippers! Clearly the Wildling hasn't lost his fascination with Brienne and get at least one more moment together this year.

14 of 15

Tyrion (Peter Dinklage)

Macall B. Polay/HBO

His Hand of the Queen pin proudly displayed, back on dry land with Unsullied soldiers backing him up.

15 of 15

Jon Snow (Kit Harington)

HELEN SLOAN/HBO

Not much to learn on this one, but those pelts sure look cozy. (Unless, Jon's in the Winterfell crypts ... which could be illuminating).
