In the past, the "Game of Thrones" annual run concludes before the San Diego Comic Convention. Normally, the cast members would not have anything to say about the succeeding season because they would still be in the dark as well. But since the show only premiered last week, the cast members who appeared at San Diego Comic-Con were able to treat fans with crucial information.
"Game of Thrones" airs Sundays at 9 p.m. ET on HBO.
