Every other season has debuted around April, yet season seven won’t start until July.
HBO released a batch of photos from Game of Thrones season 7 today, which are cause for more excitement than the teaser trailer as, while the trailer was conceptual and featured footage that won’t be used in the show, the photos come straight from scenes in the new episodes.
While other seasons have been made up of 10 episodes, season seven will contain just seven.
However, thanks to the show’s huge ambitions for the upcoming episodes, they’re spending just as much time filming this season as previous ones.
