Sophie Turner revealed that she’s going steady with someone – he just doesn’t know it yet.

The Game of Thrones star hilariously snuck a selfie with Ryan Gosling, who was sitting behind her at the Screen Actors Guild Awards on Saturday.


The 19-year-old actress looks ecstatic in the Instagram post that Gosling clearly has no idea happened.

“Sorry boys. I’m off the market,” she captioned the sneaky photograph.

Basically, Sophie is like every one of us when it comes to the hunky actor. Well played, Sophie. Well played.

The English actress may not be dating Gosling, but there is a Game of Thrones romance going on.

Season six of “Game of Thrones” will premiere on April 24, HBO announced Thursday at the Television Critics Association press tour in Pasadena.

While details are scarce about the plot for the upcoming episodes of the hugely popular fantasy series, a teaser released late last year suggests that it will address the season five cliffhanger that left fans guessing if Kit Harington’s Jon Snow was alive after he was the victim of a Julius Caesar-like uprising.


The season also marks the return of Isaac Hempstead-Wright as Bran Stark, a character who has not been seen since season four. New cast members this season include Max von Sydow as the Three-Eyed Raven (a character first played by Struan Rodger) and “UnREAL” actor Freddie Stroma as Dickon Tarly, the brother of John Bradley’s Samwell.

Game of Thrones’ TV success has opened doors to movie roles for its cast, including Natalie Dormer, who’s starring in the new horror flick The Forest, which hits theaters Friday. While the GoT crew’s profiles have risen, your favorites aren’t total strangers to the big screen. Here’s a selection of movies you may not have known include some of Westeros’ famous faces.

Before her Margaery Tyrell paired with King Joffrey on the HBO hit, Dormer made her big-screen debut in this Lasse Hallstrom film that starred Heath Ledger as the renowned ladies’ man. (Photo: HBO/Everett)

Worried whether you’ll see Jon Snow again? It’s a sure bet you’ll find the actor who plays him (as well as fellow Thrones alum Sean Bean) in the second movie based on the popular horror game series. (Photo: HBO/Everett)

Think Cersei is a handful? Headey needed to keep her eyes on Sting as a troublemaking butler in this dark U.K. comedy that featured her as the lord of the manor’s newly engaged daughter. (Photo: HBO/Everett)

Forget Daenerys Targaryen’s dragons; in this U.K. coming-of-age tale, it’s Clarke’s Sally who’s all fired up about her pals’ band and their quest to get a demo tape to late-‘80s/early ‘90s alt-rock royals The Stone Roses. (Photo: HBO/Level 33 Entertainment)

Half of Sunday night’s Golden Globe Awards show will give prizes to TV shows — a wide range of shows, most from cable and streaming outlets, few from the major networks. There are a lot of big names and big talent involved. Here are my predictions for who will win — and please feel free to add your own predictions in the comments section.

TV series, drama
Nominees: Empire, Game of Thrones, Mr. Robot, Narcos, Outlander
Will Globes voters opt for the big spectacle of Game of Thrones, the big spectacle of Empire, or the small-scale triumph of Mr. Robot? That’s what this category comes down to, I believe. And I think Empire will take the Globe. 

TV series, comedy
Nominees: Casual, Mozart in the Jungle, Orange Is the New Black, Silicon Valley, Transparent, Veep
What a surprising assortment of shows, both for what was included (Casual? Mozart in the Jungle?) and what was shut out (no Modern Family? No Big Bang Theory? No network sitcom at all?) Of the remaining trio, Transparent has the hype and the momentum. I’d much rather see Silicon Valley win, but I think it’s Transparent for the win, its second in a row.

Luther returns tonight to BBC America for a special that begins with Idris Elba’s titular detective taking time away from the badge and his predictable wardrobe. Before long — thanks to news brought by new faces DCI Theo Bloom (Darren Boyd) and DS Emma Lane (Game of Thrones’ Rose Leslie) and unforeseen events — he’s back in London searching for the truth about a mystery we won’t spoil and hunting a cannibalistic serial killer.

The Big Question
Will fans see Alice (Ruth Wilson) return as well in BBC America’s new ‘Luther’ special, premiering Dec. 17? All Idris Elba would tell Yahoo TV is, “Her presence is felt.” While we wait for the answer, here’s a look back at one of TV’s most unexpected and compelling relationships — and a reminder of where we left off after three seasons.

The Meet-Cute
In the series premiere, DCI John Luther interrogates the brilliant Alice Morgan after she discovers her parents murdered in their home. With no sign of forced entry or a burglary, Alice is Luther’s prime suspect — particularly after he yawns and she doesn’t (it has to do with the part of the brain that handles empathy, and she has none). 

The Obsession
After Luther proves a worthy match in the interrogation room, Alice is free to walk… but not before she tells him she enjoyed their chat. “You’re very interesting,” she says.

The Bait
Luther knows Alice wants to impress him and be adored for her beautifully twisted mind. His plan: He’ll give her attention and take it away. Then, she’ll fray and screw up.

When it comes to illegal viewing, dragons still beat zombies.

HBO’s Game of Thrones was the most-pirated TV series in 2015, according to copyright and privacy news site Torrent Freak. This is the fourth year the Emmy-winning drama has retained this crown, with an estimated 14,400,000 illegal downloads. That’s nearly double the estimated 8,100,000 illegal downloads that Torrent Freak reported it had last year.


The second and third-most pirated TV series were The Walking Dead and The Big Bang Theory, respectively, both of which saw an increase in pirating.

Hoping for more Bran in your next serving of Game of Thrones? Not to worry: the second-youngest Stark son — baby Rickon is still safe in the company of Osha, we hope — will be returning in a big way in the show’s sixth season, set to premiere on HBO in April.

The Apocalypse is nigh.

After teasing a select few fans and journalists with some footage at Comic-Con back in July, Marvel and Fox finally dropped the first official trailer for X-Men: Apocalypse, the third film in director/producer Bryan Singer’s young-mutant trilogy. (It’s the 9th X-Men movie overall.) This time around, the mutants face their biggest adversary yet: the godlike, original mutant Apocalypse, played by Oscar Isaac, who is recognizable underneath all that CGI. Watch the trailer above.

The clip begins with the young Jean Grey (Game of Thrones’ Sophie Turner) having visions of death in her sleep. Though she’s reassured by Professor X (James McAvoy) that it’s just a bad dream

There are several newcomers this time around, including new versions of characters we saw in the earlier batch of X-Men movies. In addition to a younger Storm and Jean Grey, we also meet a new Cyclops (Tye Sheridan).

 X-Men: Apocalypse hits theaters on May 27. Watch Isaac, Munn and Singer talk about the film below:

While Kate Middleton gets way lot of attention for her new bangs or for her fashion repeats, it’s a different story in the East. Queen Jetsun Pema of Bhutan doesn’t enjoy stardom like her Occidental counterparts Duchess of Cambridge or Queen Letizia of Spain, still, she is regarded a style icon of the Orient.

Like Daenerys Targaryen of Game of Thrones, she is a real dragon queen, for her title “Druk Gyaltsuen” literally translates to “Dragon Queen”. The picturesque Bhutan is known as the ‘Land of the Thunder Dragon’.

There’s no shame in admitting it: If you’re a Game of Thrones fan, then you’re totally in love with Septa Unella a.k.a. the “Shame, Shame” Nun. Since overseeing Cersei Lannister’s naked walk of shame in the Season 5 finale, Unella has entered the Westerosi Hall of Fame for Scene-Stealing Supporting Characters, joining such storied company as Bronn, Jaqen H’ghar, and Ros (RIP).

What was the audition process like?  
I was eight months pregnant when I first got the call to audition, so I thought, “There’s no way I’m going to get this role, because I look like a ship in full sail!” I mainly thought it would be nice to meet David [Benioff] and Dan [Weiss], so they could keep me in mind for the next time, when I wasn’t pregnant. But then I got the part! I must have really been channeling some awful thoughts for them to see past all of that.

Cersei’s “Walk of Shame” is one of the most memorable sequences in the novels and the series captures it in all its horrific glory. 

Where can fans see you outside of Westeros while we wait for more Game of Thrones? You’ve been a mainstay on the London musical theater scene.

In 2015, television made us laugh, it made us cry, it made us text friends “OMG?!” There were so many incredible moments that we couldn’t stop talking about on Twitter, in the office kitchen, via Skype with our moms.

2015 has been a blockbuster year in television, from Game of Thrones’ fifth season to the ‘Who killed Lucy Beale?’ storyline in EastEnders.

It was a big year of change for Simon Cowell’s reality music competition as we said goodbye to long-time judge Louis Walsh and presenter Dermot O’Leary. Instead, we said welcome back to former Xtra Factor hosts Caroline Flack and Olly Murs and hello to new judges Nick Grimshaw and Rita Ora. While ratings may be on the slide, The X Factor - now in its eleventh series - continues to be one of Britain’s most popular Saturday night shows. This year’s contestants included Anton Stephans, Seann Miley Moore, Che Chesterman and the infectious sisters from the Philippines, 4th Impact. We’re still not over Mason Noise’s bootcamp meltdown…


The Voice returned for its fourth series on BBC One in January and began the year with a bang. Months before joining The X Factor family, Rita Ora honed her skills as a talent show judge when she replaced Kylie Minogue on the judging panel. The series was won by Scottish singer Stevie McCrorie, who was a member of Ricky Wilson’s team. [Photo: Wenn]

Britain’s Got Talent thrilled audiences again this year with another dancing dog act as Jules O’Dwyer and her dog Matisse won over the public’s hearts with their daring routines, including a tight-rope walk. The ninth series also saw magician Jamie Raven and Welsh choir Côr Glanaethwy impress viewers. However, BGT came under some fire when it was revealed that one of Jules’ other dogs, Chase, had performed part of Jules and Matisse’s routine in the final. The switch led to over 800 Ofcom complaints.

It was a big year in the Yorkshire dales and there was one common denominator when it came to drama: Robert Sugden. The villainous character began 2015 by accidentally killing his sister-in-law Katie Sugden and then caused one of Emmerdale’s biggest disaster storylines yet - a helicopter crash. Naturally, the chopper crashed into a barn hosting Debbie Dingle’s wedding and killed Val Pollard and Ruby Haswell. Multiple residents on the ITV soap later became suspects in Robert’s shooting. A highly anticipated flashback episode revealed that the shooter was none other than Ross Barton.

The BBC has got to be popping the champagne this year as its hit dancing competition has been pulling in on average four million more viewers than rival show X Factor. This year’s celebrity contestants include Peter Andre, Jay McGuinness and TV presenter Anita Rani, who are all favourites to win. As always, it wouldn’t be Strictly without some dancing duds and this year Iwan Thomas was the first to go, while chef Ainsley Harriot lasted longer than expected. The series also marks the last for professional dancer Ola Jordan, who has appeared on Strictly for nearly a decade. [Photo: BBC/Guy Levy]

Just as we began recovering from season four, it was already time for the fifth season of Game of Thrones. With Tyrion Lannister now an outcast, he sought an alliance with Daenerys Targaryen, prompting their first scenes together in the show’s history. Meanwhile, in King’s Landing, Cersei Lannister found her own plotting turn against her as she was imprisoned by the religious anarchists, the Sparrows, and forced to confess to various sins. There was even a heartbreaking scene in which she was forced to walk through the city, completely naked, while a nun yelled “Shame”. And in perhaps Game of Thrones’ biggest cliffhangers yet, the season ended with the death of beloved character Jon Snow. We’re still not over it!

There’s never a dull year in Weatherfield and 2015 was no exception. The year started with a mini-bus crash, leaving fan favourites including Steve McDonald and Carla Connor in peril. That wasn’t the only big stunt of the year as in May, Tracy Barlow started a fire at a block of flats in an attempt to kill her rival, Carla. Unfortunately for her, the fire instead killed Kal Nazir. The Platts also had a tumultuous year in Corrie as Sarah returned to Weatherfield with her daughter Bethany but soon found herself mixed up in brother David’s drama with his stepson Max. Max’s father Callum Logan terrorises the family with attacks on Sarah’s ex Jason Grimshaw and even drugs Sarah. The storyline came to a dramatic climax in a live episode in September when Callum finally got his comeuppance and was killed by ex-girlfriend Kylie Platt. Corrie also said goodbye to legendary character Deirdre Barlow, who died off-screen in July, several months after actress Anne Kirkbride passed away in January.

In perhaps the most controversial series yet, Big Brother returned to screens in May with a ‘Timebomb’ theme. This series saw another group of fame-seekers live together with Chloe Wilburn eventually win the series in July. The show’s time warp theme saw numerous blasts from the past return to the famous Big Brother house including Nikki Grahame, Brian Belo, Aisleyne Horgan-Wallace and the previous year’s winner Helen Wood. Helen’s return to the house sparked over 1000 Ofcom complaints after she teared into happy-go-lucky Brian, saying he looked like a ‘rapist and murderer’. 

Yes, the most popular TV show of 2015 is EastEnders. And is it any surprise? The BBC One soap finally revealed Lucy Beale’s killer in a week of revelations to mark its 30th anniversary in February. Yes, little Bobby Beale offed his own sister with a music box - and the nation was gripped with millions of viewers tuning in for EastEnders’ week of anniversary episodes. There were further shocks over the course of the year as Dean Wicks managed to avoid jail for raping Linda Carter and viewers saw the return of the presumed-dead Kathy Beale. Kathy returned to the soap and reunited with her sons Ian Beale and Ben Mitchell, but her return also led to a new villain terrorising Walford - her new husband Gavin Sullivan. The gangster was even revealed to be Sharon Mitchell’s biological father. What a year in Albert Square!

Will Game of Thrones season 6 top the big Jon Snow shocker? Well, it's hard to say unless they get Tyrion or Daenerys' head chopped off! Wouldn't that break the internet?

Actress Sophie Turner recently told Entertainment Weekly that fans of the popular HBO drama should be ready for "many shocks" in the upcoming sixth season of the fantasy series. Turner, who plays Sansa Stark on the show, said the sixth season will be the biggest so far.

"This season there's like so many shocks, it's massive. It's the biggest season yet. And just like in terms of character development, so many people's storylines, I'm excited for. It's going to be good," she said. (via The Hindu)


We wonder if these multiple storylines involve more of the major characters coming fact-to-face for the first time. Last year, a spoiler report teased a scene between Jon Snow, Sansa Stark, Ramsay Bolton and Littlefinger in one of the upcoming episodes.

The actress added that the new season will also be a big one for her character. "I mean this season is a really, really big one for Sansa. It's probably her best season yet. It's her really coming into her own. She, this season, really commands the respect that she deserves and she grabs hold of it and she runs with it and it's really good."

Game of Thrones season 6 will premiere on 24 April.

Last week, HBO teasingly told us that we had no idea what’s going to happen on Season 6 of Game of Thrones. Now, thanks to a new trailer advertising the network’s 2016 series, we do know a few things. HBO dropped three small glimpses of the currently-filming season into the two-and-a-half minute long clip, which started out recapping their “magical” 2015 season before peering ahead to next year’s slate. Those tantalizing moments include a quick shot of a grimy Daenerys looking decidedly less regal now that she’s back amongst the Dothraki instead of on the throne of Meereen; a peek at a newly legitimized (and possibly widowed, if Sansa didn’t survive her leap of Winterfell’s walls)
