EW just unveiled four Game of Thrones covers to go with this week’s special double issue. We’ve got one for Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke), one for Jon Snow (Kit Harington), one for Tyrion Lannister (Peter Dinklage) and also one for Arya Stark (Maisie Williams) who’s rocking a brand new look. Here’s what Williams told the outlet about her makeover:
“It’s very neutral, very plain, but clean! I have clean hair that actually moves. I came onto the set and nobody recognized me.”
EW also spoke to co-show runner David Benioff about what’s to come in the new season:
“Worlds are colliding. One of the things we’ve been most excited about from the beginning of the series is we’ve had all these far-flung story lines across Westeros and Essos which almost never cross. Now some of these characters start to head on a collision course for each other.”
Game of Thrones producer Bryan Cogman also added the following:
“With each season, the stakes get higher and higher and the war gets bloodier and bloodier. We’re in season 5 and there’s an expectation for big events and consequences.”
You can check out all four Game of Thrones season 5 EW covers below. If you’ve got a standard subscription to HBO, you can catch the show when it returns on April 12th across all of HBO’s branded networks, but now there’s also the Apple TV/HBO Now option, which will run you $14.99 a month (plus the cost of the Apple TV if you don't have one) and is completely cable free.
