Jon & Arya reunite and much more in 2 new Game of Thrones Season 8 TV spots!

This reunion has been coming for 67 episodes!

This reunion has been coming for 67 episodes!

It appears that season eight trailer we analyzed to death may be the only one we ever get, but don’t despair: here are some TV spots instead! Very much like the trailer, these promos focus on the first half of the season, but with some new footage, including what looks like Jon and Arya reuniting; Tyrion and Jaime echoing striking lines said to them in the past; more from the Battle of Winterfell; and maybe even a hint of Jon flying Rhaegal.

There are no official HD versions yet, but we will provide them as soon as they appear. Meanwhile, we thank ju (@wildtargaryen) for their higher quality capture:

In terms of new footage, the first promo shows Tyrion taking the stage in Winterfell’s Great Hall, with Sansa and Dany at the great table behind him, trying to convince the Lords of the North with a similar speech to the one Davos gave Dany and Tyrion last season, except Tyrion gets even more to the point: “We must fight together now. Or die.”

Next, Jon turns away from Dany, whose back is to us as she looks into the hearth; Beric, fiery sword in hand, shouts at a paralyzed Sandor Clegane; Daenerys reacts to something in Winterfell’s courtyard; the Unsullied close ranks, forming a phalanx with their dragonglass-affixed shields; Jon wildly swings at the camera and Cersei violently turns to the camera (poor cameraman); Varys, Tyrion, and Davos look at a dragon, though that’s not something that would shock these three… unless Jon Snow is riding Rhaegal, of course!; in the middle of a blizzard, the Unsullied form a shield wall, with spears at the ready; and, in a orange-tinged Winterfell, Arya fights with her stick.

Jon Arya Heart Tree Winterfell Season 8 Reunion TV Spot 2

In the second TV spot, the familiar trailer shot of Jon standing by Winterfell’s heart tree is followed by a reverse shot in which we see Arya is there for Jon, in what’s likely part of the reunion we’ve been waiting for ever since they said goodbye in “The Kingsroad.” Sam says “Think back to where we started,” and Jon seemingly replies “That was just us.”

In another continuation to a previous trailer shot, we see Daenerys is joined by Jorah; Viserion approaches Winterfell’s northwestern side and the enormous encampment around it; Jon lights the candles of a statue in Winterfell’s crypts, as we hear him say “We need to end this war”; in another trailer shot, this time we can hear Jaime scream “Run!” or perhaps “Bronn!” (for what it’s worth, the Russian trailer dubbed it “Bronn!”); we get a panoramic of the battle inside Winterfell’s walls; the Unsullied point the spears to the enemy; and, finally, Jaime echoes the words with which Brienne shocked him during last season’s finale, saying “This goes beyond loyalty. This is about survival.”

So, do you believe we got a reaction to Jon riding Rhaegal? How will Arya’s reunion with Jon continue? Will the Hound embrace his fear of fire during the Battle of Winterfell? Is Jaime shouting “Bronn”? Who will get out of that battle alive… and who will not?
