Arya will also be featured wearing a dress with her hair done in braids, a far cry from her earlier muddy brown tomboy-in-tunic look during the last four seasons. With sweeping views of new locations filmed in Northern Ireland and Croatia, bloodier fight scenes and another royal wedding, the new trailer gives viewers a longer look at the Sand Snakes, Jonathan Pryce's fanatical High Sparrow, and a sinister promise from the Mother of Dragons.
Spoilers have been released, as well. Actress Sophie Turner has hinted that an extremely traumatic scene involving the fake Arya Ramsay Bolton took to wife may be related to Littlefinger's exhortation for Sansa Stark to avenge her family. Fans have speculated Sansa may be returning to Winterfell to do just that.
The High Sparrow, a new character to enter the scene will have a very big impact on Cersei's storyline, and the new trailer appears to be suggesting the fanatical priest may be targeting the Tyrells, as well.
Apart from the upcoming wedding of Margaery Tyrell and Tommen Baratheon, author George R.R. Martin has warned book readers to expect characters dying in the series that remain alive in the books, leading fans of the fantasy series to speculate Sansa may be headed to her doom.
