'Game of Thrones' season 8: Leaked scene description
Minor details about a scene in “Game of Thrones” season 8 have leaked online. Filming is currently ongoing in Northern Ireland, with prominent cast members arriving in Belfast to film their respective scenes one last time. The following article contains spoilers.
There is a war coming to Winterfell, but it will take time for the White Walkers to make their way to the Stark stronghold. According to a report by Watchers on the Wall, a source familiar with the production has revealed that fans will get to see the crypts in Winterfell in at least the first two episodes of next season.
Readers should note that the crypt is the final resting place for the Starks, and the last time viewers saw this location was when Arya (Maisie Williams) and Sansa (Sophie Turner) spoke about their father.
A scene similar to the one between Arya and Sansa is reportedly being filmed at the moment. The report doesn’t reveal which two characters are involved this time around.
The much-awaited reunion, though, is that of Jon Snow (Kit Harington) Arya and Bran (Isaac Hempstead Wright). The characters will reportedly return to the crypt as the White Walker invasion begins. Shane’s castle is reportedly standing in for the crypt, with the source revealing that two cast members had filmed a scene there recently. It reportedly ends with the blow of the horn.
There will be more battles between the Night King’s army and the Night’s Watch. Some extras who will be playing the role of the members of the Night’s Watch have been training and are scheduled to film soon. The episode featuring the battle at Winterfell is expected to be directed by Miguel Sapochnik.
