Ups

7. Tormund And Brienne Promoted

HBO

Now, admittedly this isn't directly linked to the trailer, but with HBO releasing character posters at the same time, it's only right to consider it a marketing bundle of sorts.

Though it seems inevitable that either one or both of Brienne and Tormund will be killed off this season (one laying down his life for Jon, the other for his sisters), it's good to see that both have been bumped up the cast enough to get their own posters.

They're consistently two of the most interesting side-characters (particularly when they're together), and it's a nice little bonus that they're being considered main cast now.

Brienne actually got her own poster in Season 4, but she's mostly not been considered a big enough player since.
