'Game Of Thrones' Season 3 Premiere: Cast Previews What To Expect From Their Characters This Year

"Game of Thrones" returns for Season 3 on Sunday, March 31 (9 p.m. ET on HBO), and the war-torn land of Westeros will only become more brutal as we delve deeper into George R. R. Martin's meaty tale, confidently adapted by David Benioff and D.B. Weiss on an increasingly epic scale.

Ahead of the show's hotly anticipated premiere on Sunday, The Huffington Post spoke with a number of stars from the series to find out what they could reveal about where we find their characters this season both at roundtable interviews and at red carpet events. Read on for a spoiler-lite preview from Kit Harington (Jon Snow), Rose Leslie (Ygritte), John Bradley (Samwell Tarley), Michelle Fairley (Catelyn Stark), Maisie Williams (Arya Stark), Isaac Hempstead-Wright (Bran Stark), Sophie Turner (Sansa Stark), Natalie Dormer (Margaery Tyrell), Lena Headey (Cersei Lannister), Gwendoline Christie (Brienne of Tarth) and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau (Jaime Lannister). Sadly, Emilia Clarke (Daenerys Targaryen) missed the press junket due to other work commitments, but her storyline is better shown than told anyway.

North of The Wall
The end of Season 2 saw Jon Snow in the custody of the Wildlings, about to be taken before the legendary Mance Rayder (Ciarán Hinds), known as the King Beyond the Wall. Kit Harington previewed that Season 3 was "interesting" to film because Jon is "essentially a spy and the whole season for him is about where his heart really belongs; whether he’s made a stupid young man’s decision by taking these vows and becoming part of the Night’s Watch and whether he actually would prefer to be a free person and fighting for Mance Rayder. So throughout the season, we discover whether he’s going to be loyal to Night’s Watch or whether he’s going to betray the Night’s Watch and as it goes along, having to convince the Wildlings that he’s one of them, he also convinces himself that he’s one of them."

That internal struggle is further complicated by the tempestuous Ygritte, who shares an undeniable chemistry with the inexperienced young warrior. "I think Jon Snow is such an integral part to her arc this season as well," Rose Leslie said. "I think he breaks down her barriers and you see a softer side to her -- she’s not so brutal and harsh towards him as always."

Jon's closest friend in the Watch, Samwell Tarley, undergoes his own evolution in his travels beyond the Wall. As part of the raiding party that was set upon by the terrifying Wights at the end of the last season, Sam encounters plenty of action while trying to make his way back to the Wall. "I think that for Sam especially, it’s a hugely transformative season in terms of how he’s maturing very rapidly, very dramatically in a very short space of time," John Bradley said. "Certain things happen and certain things have already happened which are planting seeds, which are going to affect his whole outlook on life and his priorities and just give him a reason to be alive for the first time. Certain people need him now; I don’t think he’s ever felt needed before."

The North/The Riverlands
Oblivious to the dangers that lurk beyond the Wall, the war for the Iron Throne is still raging across Westeros and Robb Stark (Richard Madden) is trying to marshal his forces and maintain his dominance in battle after his mother Catelyn Stark freed the Northmen's most valuable captive, Jaime Lannister, in the hope of exchanging him for Catelyn's two daughters, Sansa and Arya, whom she believed were both being held at King's Landing.

"[When we pick up] Catelyn is still estranged from her son, Robb," Michelle Fairley admitted. "She’s still at the camp so she’s become quite introspective, spends a lot of time on her own and reflecting on her life and her actions ... She certainly becomes darker in Season 3."

Between Catelyn's perceived betrayal and Robb's impromptu wedding to Talisa Maegyr (Oona Chaplin) -- which broke an arranged marriage pact between the Starks and the Frey family -- Fairley warned that the rift between mother and son "doesn’t get resolved easily ... I think when you put people in solitary confinement, when you starve them of contact with the ones that they love ... they become desperate ... An olive branch is proffered eventually, but that relationship has changed substantially. The rot has started."

Catelyn can take some small comfort in the fact that their travels take the Stark forces to the Tully family seat at Riverrun, where we meet her brother, Edmure (Tobias Menzies), and uncle, Brynden "The Blackfish" Tully (Clive Russell).

"We meet Catelyn’s uncle, who was her father’s brother, and they have a very nice relationship," Fairley said. "They have a very trusting, honest relationship. He’s very direct and she can speak to him the way she would have spoken to Ned [Sean Bean] I think. The relationship with her brother is different ... He’s not a man like Ned was in that respect. He’s a very different type of male and it’s an issue with Catelyn of working on her respect for him."

Sadly, the other Stark children have equally dangerous paths to tread. Arya -- along with her fellow escapees from Harrenhal, Gendry (Joe Dempsie) and Hot Pie (Ben Hawkey) -- will find the path to Riverrun is longer and more fraught with peril than they anticipated. "Arya just got the coin [from Jaqen H'ghar] ... and now I think maybe she’s got a bit of quiet confidence about getting home," Maisie Williams said. "She doesn’t really want to let herself believe it too much, but she’s slowly starting to feel closer and that maybe she’s worked hard enough maybe something good is going to come of it."

Meanwhile, her brothers Bran and Rickon have escaped Winterfell and Theon Greyjoy's (Alfie Allen) murderous intent, heading towards the Wall to try and reunite with Jon along with Hodor (Kristian Nairn) and Osha (Natalia Tena) for protection. "Bran is now on the road, and his group gets two new characters which are a very interesting new element and really just change the dynamics of the group," Isaac Hempstead-Wright explained. "I think Bran’s story definitely picks up this season because in previous seasons, he hasn’t really had a goal and he hasn’t really been striving towards anything. Now in Season, 3 he knows what he wants and he’s heading towards something."

Those two new characters will certainly be familiar to fans of the books, but for those who are only caught up with the show, he was purposefully vague: "They’re quite crucial in helping Bran to understand the visions he’s been having. And they bring quite an interesting new social dynamic and some of the interactions between each of the characters in the group get ... interesting."

The South/King's Landing
Joffrey (Jack Gleeson) is still being his obnoxious, bloodthirsty self when we rejoin the show, but after the Tyrells saved King's Landing from Stannis Baratheon's (Stephen Dillane) attack in the Battle of Blackwater last season, he's cast Sansa Stark aside in favor of Margaery Tyrell, who, along with her handsome brother Loras (Finn Jones), is more than just a pretty face.

"For Sansa personally, she has a lot of big events this season and I feel like she kind of becomes a woman, not only in her life but also, in the game," Sophie Turner observed. "She’s definitely grown up and she’s an adult, in the sense that she knows how to play the game but also in other events."

Natalie Dormer agreed, "What’s so interesting about a show with a lot of men with swords on horses, fighting battles, the fun thing about King’s Landing -- it’s all about the power-play between the women. So, you put Diana Rigg [Margaery's grandmother, Olenna Tyrell] and Lena Headey and myself and Sophie in the capital and we’ve got our own kind of battlefield happening."

She added, "The Tyrells have come in and they kind of want to adopt Sansa. They want to bring her onto their side, for obvious reasons. So Sansa comes from a close family. The Tyrells are a close family. So, it’s kind of like, 'We’re nice people. Come and be with us ... ' Then it’s up to Sansa. Does she trust us? Does she not trust us? She wants to. She knows she shouldn’t. She’s battling all those things that Sophie says that she’s battling: becoming a woman and becoming an independent spirit. I think Margaery really, genuinely empathizes with her. Margaery genuinely thanks God that she’s not in her position. We were just saying that we think, in other circumstances, these two girls would genuinely be friends. They like each other. It’s just that their friendship is not isolated by that. There are other people involved and bigger themes to deal with, but they’re two young girls that are just trying to be practical."

Standing in the way of their practicality is Cersei Lannister, who has many problems to deal with in Season 3. "Her relationship with Margaery steps up because she becomes very present, which obviously Cersei's very happy about, so that's a real challenge for her," Lena Headey said with a laugh. "And of course, her father (Charles Dance) returns, which is not her favorite thing in the world. So she's kind of faced with these two foes, one of which she deeply wants to impress in everything she does, and she'll never succeed. And Jaime's not around ... "

Naturally, her rivalry with younger brother Tyrion (Peter Dinklage) only intensifies now that their father Tywin is back in King's Landing and positioned as the new King's Hand. "There's a great scene where they both get their comeuppance. And early on in the scene, Cersei's very smug, and then she gets served and it's kinda great," she laughed.

Still, Cersei's main struggle is with Joffrey, who has grown increasingly arrogant the longer he sits on the Iron Throne. "That kills her," Headey admitted. "Her children are her strength and her weakness. That love is terrifying and extraordinary. It's unquestionable. Hers is just a little more ... extreme."

Caught in the midst of the turmoil between families and warring factions, Brienne of Tarth and Jaime Lannister are attempting to return to King's Landing, where Brienne hopes to trade the Kingslayer for Catelyn's daughters. The journey will take its toll on both warriors, but it might also bring some unexpected growth.

"Brienne starts to explore her original ideas about what it is to be a woman, about what strength is -- that strength can be more than just physical strength," Gwendoline Christie said of her character's evolution. "I think that we start to get an insight into Brienne's emotional world that we haven't had before. That galvanizes a big change in her."

"Being forced to spend so much time with one person forces you to get to know this other character, whether you want to or not," Nikolaj Coster-Waldau previewed. "And without giving anything away, they do spend a lot of time together."

As for whether they grow to respect each other on their odyssey, that's a more complicated question. "It's a long season, things change," Coster-Waldau said with a laugh. "At the end of Season 2, there's a scene where she kind of surprises him when she takes out these Stark guards in a very efficient way, but also in a way that surprises him because they are Stark men and he doesn't get it -- why would she put herself in that kind of danger because of a promise? It doesn't make sense to him, but I think he recognizes something that they maybe have in common. She seems unafraid of the consequences. She's not political and tactical. She has a code. But at the same time, if he could, he would just get rid of her as soon as possible. To earn respect takes a little longer."

Christie agreed, "He doesn't show her any respect whatsoever, and there's nothing for her to respect apart from the legend of his brilliant sword skills. So there's nothing tangible for Brienne to admire about him."

"She believes the rumors, she believes all the gossip, she has this preconceived opinion about this guy," Coster-Waldau aded. "He's the Kingslayer; he can't be trusted; he's dishonorable; she's just taken that for the truth. And then ... well, we'll see what happens."

"Game of Thrones" premieres Sunday, March 31 at 9 p.m. ET on HBO.

Stepparents Share Their Proudest Moments With Their Stepkids

Every stepparent remembers the moment they finally earned their stepkids' seal of approval. It's a meaningful moment -- as any stepparent can tell you, a stepchild's trust can be hard won, sometimes taking years and years to gain.

On Friday, Redditor Jedi_Hog shared his shiningest moment as a stepparent -- in meme form. Take a look here:

2013-03-29-ScreenShot20130329at3.02.26PM.png
Courtesy of quickmeme.com

The stepdad's success story won over Reddit, with fellow stepparents and stepkids weighing in with their personal stories in the comments. We were especially touched by Redditor MorganaLeFaye's sweet tribute to her stepdad:

My dad is the man who raised me. I met him when I was four.
He's the one that put the band-aids on skinned knees and went to my school plays even though he really didn't want to.
He's the one who got very awkward whenever I would cry because he really didn't know what to do to fix me.
He's the man who went to McDonalds or Taco Bell when my mom was working late and he was put in charge of "making us a healthy, well balanced dinner."
He is the man who hooked the stereo speakers up to the TV when I was very young and turned our living room into a movie theater so we could watch Jurassic Park.
He is the man who walked me down the aisle and cried on my wedding day as he told me how beautiful I looked.
He may not be genetically related to me, but he is in every sense my father.

We decided to extend the love by asking our readers to share their proudest moments as stepparents. Click through the slideshow below for some of our favorite responses, then head to the comments and tell us about your best stepparent stories.

Before you let someone publish your article on their site...

... be sure to check out their backlink profile. Why? Simply because otherwise you can get 1) penalized 2) banned from Google.
Most people are happy to receive a backlink from each and every site that accepts his article, however that's a big mistake. If you're using blog networks / guest post "communities" make sure that the site you're receiving your backlink from is legit. How to do that? Easy, just take a look at their link profile with MajesticSEO and/or Open Site Explorer (by SEOmoz) and/or ahrefs. Check out the anchor texts first, if you see anything out of ordinary (virus, drugs, pr0n and whatnot!) then walk away. Then check out randomly a couple of sites in that list. It's good if they have social media presence! Facebook pages, Twitter accounts, YouTube channels and so on. Do they seem spammy? Are they (possibly) part of a blog network? If yes, then again: walk away.
"Guest posting" is on the radar of Google's spam team. If you don't do it right, you can get hurt pretty badly!
This is an ad that I inserted!
Good luck,
Mark

When you gather the most interesting people in the theatre business at this moment in time to talk to leaders in the arts and corporate sector, it is remarkable to witness the common threads that tend to emerge, especially the importance of community engagement.

Last week's tenth edition of the National Corporate Theatre Fund's Broadway Roundtable provided an unmatched glimpse into on the mind of today's leading players in theatre both on-stage and off.

This distinctive event, organized with great support from UBS, draws interest as a result of the panel of interdisciplinary artists and experts, and this year's was very intriguing: Olympia Dukakis, fresh from Elektra at ACT in San Francisco; Heather Hitchens, Executive Director of the American Theatre Wing; Santino Fontana, who opened a couple of days later as Prince Charming in the new Rogers & Hammerstein's Cinderella; Molly Smith, Artistic Director of Arena Stage in Washington, D.C.; Daryl Roth, producer of many Pulitzer and Tony Award winning shows, whose Kinky Boots started performances that weekend; and Paul Downs Colaizzo, the writer of Really Really, one of the Off Broadway sensations of the current season.

While we never know who will finally wind up on the panel, inevitably a common thread tends to emerge. Last year, as we launched our Impact Creativity campaign for arts education, that topic really came to the fore. This year, it was easy to see that creativity and community would be the common threads. As the creator and co-organizer of the Tony Awards, the American Theatre Wing gives back to the national theatre community on and off Broadway, in and out of New York, through grants and programs like their "Working in Theatre" video series. Heather explained that this is all about the theatre industry being one big ecosphere and very interdependent.

Daryl Roth told us about how seeing the film of Kinky Boots at Sundance several years started her on the journey of producing this musical version, which at its core is a story about people finding their true identity. For all of her shows, especially The Normal Heart a couple of years ago, community outreach has been critical to not only building the audience, but also making sure the play or musical has a maximum impact.

This issue of identity and finding a place in the world takes many nasty turns in Paul Downs Colaizzo's Really Really. He described how grateful he was that a regional theatre, Signature in Arlington, Va., took a chance on the play last season and enabled it to make a move to New York with the benefit of a prior production. Written six years ago when he was 21, the play chronicles a group of college students grappling with the consequences of an alleged date rape. Class, gender, harrowing stakes in today's new economy all combine to propel the characters in surprising directions. Really Really marks the arrival of a new generation's voice on the theatre scene.

Santino Fontana, Paul Colaizzo, Heather Hitchens and Bruce Whitacre at the NCTF Broadway Roundtable Molly Smith just announced an amazing season next year at Arena. I asked her what most drove her decisions, and she said it was all about history this time. This is especially true when it comes to The National Civil War Project they announced, along with three other theatres last week. With plays about Paul Robeson, Camp David and more, the season illustrates Arena's sense of place and time in Washington.

For individual artists like Olympia Dukakis, an embracing view of engagement also comes through. As a past theatre manager, acting teacher and nationally prominent film and television star, she said one of her real concerns right now is how American actors are performing the classic Greek plays. "They imitate the British," she says. She also wants actors to have more technique and grounding so that they are not just vehicles for a given director's vision, but bring something fundamental to their characters in their own rights. When I asked why she keeps coming to the theatre in these classic roles, she said, "I want to be shaken. I don't do it for fun."

Santino Fontana recounted how the mentoring and training at The Guthrie Theater in Minneapolis grounded him and launched his career. The diversity of plays produced--Greek, Shakespeare, contemporary -- offered great preparation. He did his undergraduate degree at the Guthrie's program, and then stayed on for two years to act at the theatre before moving to New York, where he has since won acclaim in Sons of the Prophet, Billy Elliott, and The Importance of Being Earnest.

Since last week, Paul's next play has been announced at Signature Theatre in Arlington; Santino opened to positive reviews in Cinderella; Kinky Boots has had a bravura first few performances, and the theatre world keeps turning. We think about the economics, the management, and the education, all about the theatre so much. It's a privilege to spend some time reveling in the art itself. Thanks to UBS, and thanks to our panelists.
