'Game of Thrones' Season 6: Arya gets less air time; Mega trailer combines all footage released so far
Most of the action in “Game of Thrones” Season 6 appears to be happening in Westeros. In a recent interview, cast member Maisie Williams revealed that her character Arya Stark is getting less air time this time around.
Appearing on the show “Late Night with Seth Meyers,” Williams (Arya) said that the fans will get to see less of her character in the new season. She, however, added that her character’s storyline flows much better this time.
The actress also spoke about having to wear really thick contact lenses and how challenging it was for her. The actress revealed that the lenses were hand painted, which gave them the murky look. She revealed that she had two sets of lenses, one that was used for the close ups and the other that had pin prick holes that allowed her to see a little.
The one question Williams was asked the most about “Game of Thrones” Season 6 was not about Arya Stark, but about the fate of Jon Snow (Kit Harington). The actress told the fans that there were a lot of other (read Arya Stark) interesting storylines that they can ask her about.
Meanwhile, a fan has put together all the footage from the show that have been released so far and created a “mega-trailer.” The nearly three minute long video on YouTube shows the conflict in King’s Landing, the trouble in the north, Daenerys Targaryen as a captive, Tyrion Lannister (Peter Dinklage) attempting to rule and other events in the show.
For the first time the TV series has over taken “A Song of Ice and Fire” book series by George R.R. Martin, on which the show is based. This makes “Game of Thrones” Season 6 one of the most highly anticipated seasons of the show so far.
