Last week gave us our first look at 'Game of Thrones' season 4 in its impressive, if not mind-blowing trailer, but who's ready for a more in-depth look? The first behind the scenes featurette for our next return to HBO's fantasy drama has hit, offering sneak peeks of the season's major set pieces, new characters and more!

Utilizing over 180 days of shooting across 4 countries, the new promo for HBO's 'Game of Thrones' season 4 goes behind the scenes with the cast and crew to tease what may be the biggest year yet for adapting series creator George R.R.

Amid the various set filming and interviews, we saw a few new sneak peeks of Joffrey's wedding, the big fight between our new Mountain and Prince Oberyn "Red Viper" Martell, Tyrion in chains, a huge battle for the Night's Watch, and even a quick glimpse of Styr, the Magnar of Thenn.
