Stars Gather at 'Game of Thrones' Season 7 Premiere as White Walkers Take Over London
It's "Game of Thrones" premiere week around the world, from the star-studded Los Angeles premiere to the march of the Night's King and his squad in central London. And shame shame shame on you if you're hyped for all of it.
"Game of Thrones" Season 7 starts this Sunday, July 16 with Episode 1, "Dragonstone." To really emphasize that Winter Is Here, White Walkers did a walk-of-no-shame through London:
