Game of Thrones (season 7)


From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The seventh season of the fantasy drama television


series Game of Thrones premiered on HBO on July 16, Game of Thrones (season7)
2017, and is scheduled to conclude six weeks later on
August 27, 2017.[1][2][3] Unlike previous seasons that
consisted of ten episodes each, the seventh season
consists of only seven.[4] Like the previous season, it
largely consists of original content not found in George R.
R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire series, and also
adapts material Martin revealed to showrunners about
the upcoming novels in the series.[5] The series is
adapted for television by David Benioff and D. B. Weiss.

HBO ordered the seventh season on April 21, 2016, three


days before the premiere of the show's sixth season,
and began filming on August 31, 2016. The season was
filmed primarily in Northern Ireland, Spain, and Iceland.

Game of Thrones features a large ensemble cast,


including Peter Dinklage, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Lena
Headey, Emilia Clarke, and Kit Harington. The season

At the Twins, Arya fatally poisons the remaining lords of House Frey. The White Walkers march
toward the Wall, where Tollett allows Bran and Meera inside. At Winterfell, despite Sansa's
disapproval, Jon secures the loyalties of Houses Umber and Karstark, who fought alongside Ramsay
in the Battle of the Bastards. At the Citadel, Samwell steals books that reveal a large reservoir of
dragonglass in Dragonstone, and sends word to Jon. He later finds Jorah in a cell. In the Riverlands,
Arya meets a group of friendly Lannister soldiers, who take her intention to kill Cersei as a joke.
Thoros shows Sandor a vision in the fire. The revelation leads him to believe in the Lord of Light.
In King's Landing, Jaime tells Cersei of the crucial need for allies. She welcomes Euron, who
proposes marriage to her in exchange for his Iron Fleet and a chance to kill Theon and Yara. Cersei
declines citing trust as a concern, so Euron promises to return with a "gift" to prove his loyalty.
Daenerys arrives at Dragonstone, the home of House Targaryen once occupied by Stannis, with her
army and dragons.

Production
Crew

Series creators and executive producers David Benioff and D. B. Weiss serve as showrunners for
the seventh season. The directors for the seventh season are Jeremy Podeswa (episodes 1 and 7),
Mark Mylod (episodes 2 and 3), Matt Shakman (episodes 4 and 5) and Alan Taylor (episode 6). This
marks Taylor's return to the series after an absence since the second season. Shakman is a first-
time Game of Thrones director, with the rest each having directed multiple episodes in previous
seasons.[31] Michele Clapton returned to the show as costume designer, after spending some time
away from the show in the sixth season. She previously worked on the show for the first five
seasons, as well as the end of the sixth season.[31]

Writing

Depending upon the release of George R. R. Martin's forthcoming The Winds of Winter, the seventh
season may comprise original material not found, or not yet found, in the A Song of Ice and Fire
series.[32] In June 2016, Martin wrote on his blog that he had met with publishers, editors and HBO,
while in New York City.[32][33] According to previous reports, some of the show's sixth season had
consisted of material revealed to the writers of the television series during discussions with
Martin.[34]

Filming

Filming began on August 31, 2016, at Titanic Studios in Belfast,[35]


and ended in February 2017.[36][37][38] In an interview with the
showrunners, it was announced that the filming of the seventh
season would be delayed until later in the year due to necessary
weather conditions for filming. The showrunners stated "We're
starting a bit later because, you know, at the end of this season,
winter is here, and that means that sunny weather doesn't really
serve our purposes any more. We kind of pushed everything down
the line so we could get some grim, gray weather even in the The shores of Gaztelugatxe
sunnier places that we shoot."[39] were used as a location for
filming Season 7.
Girona, Spain did not return as one of the filming locations.[40]
Girona stood in for Braavos and parts of King's Landing.[40] It was
later announced that the seventh season would film in Northern Ireland, Spain and Iceland, with
filming in Northern Ireland beginning in August 2016.[4][36] The series filmed in the Spanish cities
Seville, Cceres, Almodvar del Ro, Santiponce, Zumaia and Bermeo.[41] Spanish sources announced
that the series would be filming the seventh season on Muriola Beach in Barrika, Las Atarazanas, the
Royal Dockyards of Seville and at the shores of San Juan de Gaztelugatxe, an islet belonging to the
city of Bermeo.[42][43][44] The series returned to film at The Dark Hedges in Stranocum, which was
previously used as the Kingsroad in the second season.[45] Some scenes were filmed in Iceland.[46]
Filming also occurred in Dubrovnik, Croatia, which is used for location of King's Landing.[47]

Casting

Deadline reported on June 21, 2016, that the five main cast members, Peter Dinklage, Nikolaj
Coster-Waldau, Lena Headey, Emilia Clarke, and Kit Harington had been in contract negotiations for
the final two seasons. It was reported that the cast members have increased their salary to
$500,000 per episode for the seventh and eighth season.[48][49] It was later reported that the
actors had gone through a renegotiation,
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_of_Thrones_(season_7) for which they had increased their salary to $1.1 million 4/12
7/18/2017 Game of Thrones (season 7) - Wikipedia

actors had gone through a renegotiation, for which they had increased their salary to $1.1 million
per episode for the last two seasons.[50] On April 25, 2017, it was reported by Daily Express that
the actors' new salary made them each earn 2million per episode.[51][52]

On August 31, 2016, Entertainment Weekly reported that Jim Broadbent had been cast for the
seventh season in a "significant" role.[23] It was announced that the role of Dickon Tarly has been
recast, with Tom Hopper replacing Freddie Stroma, who had previously played the role in "Blood of
My Blood".[28] The seventh season sees the return of Mark Gatiss as Tycho Nestoris, who did not
appear in the sixth season.[25] After some speculation, UFC President Dana White announced that
Conor McGregor would appear in a cameo role in the seventh season.[53][54] However, in January
2017, McGregor confirmed it was a rumor.[55] Members of the British indie pop band Bastille were
reported to have filmed cameo appearances.[56] British singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran also makes a
cameo appearance in the season.[57] Guitarist/vocalist of American heavy metal band Mastodon,
Brent Hinds, has also revealed he would have a cameo appearance. This is Hinds' second cameo in the
series, following his appearance (along with bandmates Brann Dailor and Bill Kelliher) in the fifth
season.[58]

Episodes

On April 21, 2016, HBO officially ordered the seventh season of Game of Thrones, just three days
prior to the premiere of the show's sixth season.[59] According to an interview with co-creators
David Benioff and D. B. Weiss, the seventh season would likely consist of fewer episodes, stating at
the time of the interview that they were "down to our final 13 episodes after this season. We're
heading into the final lap."[60][61] Director Jack Bender, who worked on the show's sixth season, said
that the seventh season would consist of seven episodes.[62] Benioff and Weiss stated that they
were unable to produce 10 episodes in the show's usual 12 to 14 month time frame, as Weiss said
"It's crossing out of a television schedule into more of a mid-range movie schedule."[60] HBO
confirmed on July 18, 2016, that the seventh season would consist of seven episodes, and would
premiere later than usual in mid-2017 because of the later filming schedule.[4] Later it was
confirmed that the season would debut on July 16.[63] According to a report by Entertainment
Weekly, the seventh season of the series includes its longest episode of 81 minutes. The penultimate
episode also runs for 71 minutes around 16 minutes longer than an average Game of Thrones
episode. The first five episodes mostly run longer than average (55 minutes), at 59, 59, 63, 50, and
59 minutes respectively.[64] The previous longest episode in the series was the sixth season finale,
"The Winds of Winter", which ran 69 minutes.[65]

Promotion

On July 23, 2016, a teaser production trailer was released by HBO at the 2016 San Diego Comic-
Con. The trailer mostly consisted of voice overs, and shots of crew members creating sets and
props.[66] The first footage from the season was revealed in a new promotional video released by
HBO highlighting its new and returning original shows for the coming year on November 28, 2016,
showcasing Jon Snow, Sansa Stark and Arya Stark.[67][68]

On March 1, 2017, HBO and Game of Thrones teamed up with Major League Baseball (MLB) for a
cross-promotional partnership. At least 19 individual teams participate with this promotion.[69] On
March 8, 2017, HBO released the first promotional poster for the season ahead of the SXSW
Festival in Austin, Texas, which teases the battle of "ice vs. fire". Showrunners Benioff and Weiss
also spoke at the event, along with fellow cast members Sophie Turner and Maisie Williams.[70]

On March 9, 2017, HBO hosted a live stream

photos from the new season.[73] On May 23, 2017, HBO released the official posters featuring the
Night King.[74] The first official trailer for season 7 was released on May 24, 2017.[21] The trailer
set a world record for being the most viewed show trailer ever, being viewed 61 million times across
digital platforms, in the first 24 hours.[75] The second official trailer was released on June 21,
2017.[20] The season premiere was screened at the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles on July
