At the conclusion of every Game of Thrones episode, the production airs and then releases a spate of videos detailing the behind-the-scenes work that went into making it. These videos explore the thought process that went into the creation of particular scenes, and highlight what the writers and directors see as the key moments of the episode.
This week’s “Inside The Episode” is extra long, which is fitting, since this was a supersized episode, the longest of any in Game of Thrones six seasons. Most of the time these clips are around 6 minutes, this week it’s getting on for 10.
Benioff and Weiss cover a lot of ground in it too. Out of the six places we check in this week, they hit four: King’s Landing and Cersei’s ascension, Winterfell and Jon’s corresponding one, The Twins, and Arya’s surprise appearance and Dany finally leaving the other continent so that all of our characters are in one place. Only Dorne and Oldtown don’t come into play.
We have two behind the scenes with actors this week. Our first is with Maisie Williams, discussing Arya’s continuing survival. It’s interesting to listen to her speak on her character’s arc, especially in light of Benioff’s warning in the main clip, talking about how we should not be cheering on this character,and that in fact her behavior is as cold and frightening as Cersei’s.
Meanwhile, in “the rest if the Stark Family” news, our second clip finds Kit Harington, Sophie Turner and Liam Cunningham talk about the strange wheel around from Jon Snow trying to insist that Sansa should be the Lady of Winterfell to getting named King of the North himself.
This one is especially interesting in that I saw many asking why Jon did not behave like Theon did in front of Dany and insist that Sansa is the one fit to rule instead of him. But then again, as the main clip said, we should be concerned about all of this.
