Game of Thrones is set to make history by becoming the first television series to play out on an Imax screen come Jan. 29, when select theaters across the country will play the final two episodes of the show's fourth season.
Reliving the battle for the wall and the duel between Brienne and the Hound is sure to be exciting on a massive Imax screen, but Game of Thrones super-fans will be in attendance for one other reason as well -- a special sneak peak at Game of Thrones season five.
You can see a small glimpse (and I mean really small) of the season five footage to come in a new trailer for the Imax release. At around the 33 second mark you can see Tyrion falling out of the crate he was seen stowing away in at the end of season four. Where did he go, and what lies in store for the Lannister on the run? Those who have read the books already know, but don't worry, no spoilers here.
In addition to a special preview for season five, Imax attendees will also nab one of the wicked looking posters above. Fans who attend AMC Imax theaters will be able to pick up "The Watchers On The Wall" poster, while all other theaters will carry "The Children." Both posters come from illustrator Robert Ball and his website Beautifuldeath.com, where Ball has designed a breathtaking poster around the iconic deaths in each episode of the show.
There is plenty of speculation going around for season five, such as what Kit Harrington's new haircut might mean for Jon Snow and what new details will emerge in the behind-the-scenes Game of Thrones documentary airing February 8 on HBO. If you can't wait for more Game of Thrones action, you could always read up on the history of Westeros or explore a new part of the realm in the Telltale Game of Thrones video game.
Game of Thrones season five premieres Sunday April 12.
