HBOThe past five seasons of Game of Thrones have featured some pretty intense battle sequences, but apparently this is nothing to what’s coming.
According to writer-producer Bryan Cogman, the upcoming season six will be the most bombastic yet with the show’s biggest action sequence just around the corner, Entertainment Weekly reports.
HBOCogman told EW:
It’s definitely the biggest [action sequence yet]… We’ve always wanted to get to a place – story-wise and budget-wise and time-wise and resource-wise – where we would be able to do a proper battle, with one army on one side, one army on another side.
Apparently, the battle will see ‘hundreds of human soldiers on one side of a field, another army on the other side, and then there is a clash that is highly tactical, yet character-driven, and shown from start to finish’.
I can’t help but notice that that’s some pretty specific wording and only one side is described as ‘human’. Have the White Walkers, last spotted in season five, finally arrived?
In other Game of Thrones news, the show runners have said the upcoming season will be ‘the best one yet’, while Liam Cunningham revealed more about why he’s so protective over Jon Snow’s corpse.
More of a concept than a journalist, Tom Percival was forged in the bowels of Salford University from which he emerged grasping a Masters in journalism.
Since then his rise has been described by himself as ‘meteoric’ rising to the esteemed rank of Social Editor at UNILAD as well as working at the BBC, Manchester Evening News, and ITV.
He credits his success to three core techniques, name repetition, personality mirroring, and never breaking off a handshake.
