Now that winter is finally here, how does that change the game for the different players?

In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Kit Harrington who plays Jon Snow on show, shared his thoughts and predictions.

"It's important to stress at this point that I haven't had any scripts, so this is all guesswork for me. I think it's going to get very bleak before if there is a happy ending. If there's any sort of win or heroic moment for Jon and everyone else. I think it's going to get very dark before it gets better. I think what we might see this season is those White Walkers and that Army of the Dead really come into force."

"So that's going to be exciting to see. I don't know what it means. I think with the whole "winter is finally here" business, it means everyone is going to have a really bad time."
