There has been all sorts of news on the HBO series during the month that I was attending worldcon and travelling in Australia.
I am probably the last person in the world to upload these... but for any of you who don't watch TRUE BLOOD, and have somehow missed these elsewhere... here's the new GAME OF THRONES trailer that HBO premiered before the TRUE BLOOD season finale, and a short "behind the scenes" feature as well.

IN PRODUCTION
In Production Parris and I saw these on her laptop in Sydney, in the middle of the Australian night, the night they aired, but it was not until we returned home that we were able to see them on a full-size screen. I hope you enjoyed them as much as we did.
The clips will be old news for most of you, I know. So here's a few tidbits about the series that might be new to you.
We have a couple new castings to announce. The part of Rickon Stark will be played by ART PARKINSON, a Belfast native son. Rickon will be older than he is in the books, but still the yougest Stark. And MIA SOTIRIOU has been cast as the maegi Mirri Maz Duur. Also, a small change for Elyes Gabel. He will now he playing Rakharo rather than Jhogo. It was felt that Jhogo and Drogo sounded too much alike when spoken aloud, and might cause confusion.
Lots more going on besides, but I'm way out of the loop at the moment. So much to catch up on after a month on the road.
