Late last year, Entertainment Weekly revealed some spoilers to season 8 in its big cover story.
Season 8 opens at Winterfell and Daenerys is meeting with several other characters as they prepare for the the biggest threat their world has ever known -- the Night King and his army of the dead.
Sansa isn't too happy with Jon's new loyalty to Dany, and you expect an epic action sequence.
We're just six weeks away from seeing this epic first episode that \"Thrones\" fans have been waiting for for almost two years!
