While the show won’t be available to fans until it debuts on HBO on April 14, Jon Snow, Daenerys Targaryen and Sansa and Arya Stark all walked the red carpet as their human counterparts alongside many characters who were deceased, such as Sean Bean’s Eddard Stark and Jason Momoa’s Khal Drogo. Ahead of the screening of the first episode which included a special cautionary warning from Sansa and Arya Stark about the consequences of not following the rules of the event, series creators David Benioff and Dan Weiss introduced the full cast of _Game of Thrones,_ welcoming not only the stars of season 8, but many of the deceased characters who had departed the show.

It's very exciting because this so a whole new chapter of our lives are embarking on but it's also really sad because there's other chapters closing and and we won't be able to play these amazing characters anymore or being scenes with each other as those characters and so it's a mixture of both. I've got my waterproof the scar on tonight. Cuz I know there'll be a lot of crying. I feel incredibly lucky to have played the Mother of Dragons for eight seasons. I feel very proud. But it definitely wasn't me. It was the incredible writing of David Benioff and Dan Weiss. I am extremely proud to have played Brienne of Tarth. What I love is that she is not just incredibly physically strong, and able and capable of fighting. But also she has an extremely strong moral sense. And I had never played a hero before and I have really loved it. Always, every single time and I have always read the scripts from beginning to end. But you will always Check to see if you died first. But this season I didn't do that, I read it from beginning right through to the end and, [ UNKNOWN ] to read? I can Say that this season will really. I don't have words man, when we read it the first time its just mind blowing and horrible and beautiful ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/5564378/game-of-thrones-season-8-full-cast-reunion/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/5564378/game-of-thrones-season-8-full-cast-reunion/"},"headline":"Pretty Much Everyone Who's Ever Been on Game of Thrones Reunited to Get People Choked Up","datePublished":"2019-04-04T16:01:00.000Z","dateModified":"2026-10-13T08:27:15.480Z","description":"From the first to the last season","url":"https://time.com/5564378/game-of-thrones-season-8-full-cast-reunion/","keywords":["Newsfeed","game of thrones","onetime","clickmonsters"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt0a23a1ea61d38099/698947d0b21a9cde27500642/game-of-thrones-cast-reunites-season-8-premiere.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Cady Lang","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/cady-lang/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt0a23a1ea61d38099/698947d0b21a9cde27500642/game-of-thrones-cast-reunites-season-8-premiere.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"\"Game Of Thrones\" Season 8 NY Premiere","caption":"\"Game Of Thrones\" Season 8 NY Premiere","creditText":"Jeff Kravitz—FilmMagic for HBO","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/5564378/game-of-thrones-season-8-full-cast-reunion/","name":"Pretty Much Everyone Who's Ever Been on Game of Thrones Reunited to Get People Choked Up"}}]},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"Game of Thrones Stars Reunite in New York City for Final Season Premiere","description":"Game of Thrones Stars Reunite in New York City for Final Season Premiere","thumbnailUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/v2/media/yyj4kmO5/poster.jpg?width=720","uploadDate":"2019-04-04T14:05:16.000Z","contentUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/manifests/yyj4kmO5.m3u8","embedUrl":"https://time.com/5564378/game-of-thrones-season-8-full-cast-reunion/","duration":"PT1M31S","potentialAction":{"@type":"SeekToAction","target":"https://time.com/5564378/game-of-thrones-season-8-full-cast-reunion/?jw_start={seek_to_second_number}","startOffset-input":"required name=seek_to_second_number"}}] ```
