Warning: Major spoilers ahead for "Game of Thrones" season six.
Season six of "Game of Thrones" premieres on April 24, but HBO has yet to release a trailer showing new footage. Now, one more teaser has been added to the pile: A behind-the-scenes look at what it's like to film "Game of Thrones."
But among the interviews with camera-operators, HBO gave peeks at the action being filmed. One of the biggest reveals? A huge battle is going to take place in the North.
The full video is on HBO's dedicated "Making of Game of Thrones" site, but take a look at some of the biggest shots.
Here we see what looks like the aftermath of the battle. Smoke or vapor is rising from the grass and snow patches. In the bottom right corner you can see two large crosses: House Bolton's sigil. Remember when Theon/Reek was tied to one of those and tortured?
So how do we know this is a battlefield?
The fan sites Watchers on the Wall and Winter Is Coming have been reporting set leaks from Northern Ireland. According to their sources, the Boltons are going to battle against an army comprised of Northern houses. Also seen filming there? Kit Harington a.k.a. Jon Snow a.k.a. totally alive and wearing Stark armor.
So Ramsay Bolton (formerly Snow) is going to be coming up against Jon Snow and the rest of the north. This is huge. So huge, in fact, that fans have already named the battle: Snowbowl.
According to the Watchers on the Wall reports, Ramsay will be burning the bodies of two known characters on those crosses during the battle. If you look closely, you can spot a flaming cross in this shot from the newly released footage. This is a huge confirmation of the rumors found on Watchers on the Wall.
For good measure, HBO also gave us a peek at close-ups on soldiers on horseback. Many fans assume it will be featured in the ninth episode of the season, a slot usually reserved for major game-changing moments on the show. Past ninth-episode events have included Ned Stark's beheading and the Battle of Blackwater.
We're still unpacking this behind-the-scenes footage, so stay tuned for more.
