Game of Thrones has easily become one of the hottest shows in television in the recent years, even when it’s off-season. But season six of the epic television show is premiering in three weeks and, suffice to say, fans are very, very excited.
The novel-turned-TV show is beloved by many for a number of reasons, unpredictability on the top of the list for sure, but another great aspect of the show that’s been coming into people’s attention is the rise of its female characters. Protagonist or antagonist, there has been serious growth and character development in the female personas in Game of Thrones which, in such a testosterone-run world like Westeros, is a breathe of fresh air.
And, as a celebration to girl power, entertainment news portal Entertainment Weekly got the six powerful women of Westeros together for this incredible photoshoot. See the images below:
Daenerys Targaryen / Emilia Clark
Cersei Lannister / Lena Headey
Sansa Stark / Sophie Turner
Arya Stark / Maisie Williams
Margaery Tyrell / Natalie Dormer
Brienne of Tarth / Gwendoline Christie
Could it be that, after all this time, it is a lady that will win the much-coveted seat on the Iron Throne?
With all this beauty, brain, and brawn, it’s definitely an exciting possibility.
