Exciting things are in store in HBO's "Game of Thrones" Season 7. In the upcoming season, fans can expect to witness an epic battle between Jon Snow (Kit Harington) and a horde of White Walkers.
Recently, fans took to Watchers on the Wall forum to share their respective predictions on what could happen in "Game of Thrones" Season 7. It is said that Jon Snow will bring a wight in the Westeros to prove his claims about the White Walkers and the imminent threat they pose to the mankind.
It even intensified when it was learned that a giant set, featuring an enormous green screen and an artificially frozen lake, have been built at Wolf Hill Quarry in Belfast, Northern Ireland. The on-set photos, which was widely circulated on Twitter, have fueled earlier speculation that Jon Snow will lead Tormund (Kristofer Hivju), Gendry (Joe Dempsie), Jorah (Iain Glen), The Hound (Rory McCann), Thoros of Myr (Paul Kaye) and Beric Dondarrion (Richard Dormer) on an expedition to capture the said wight.

Around 300 wights are said to be involved in the supposed looming battle. With an aim to feature a dynamic and elaborate sequence, the filming of the said scene will reportedly run for three weeks.
Meanwhile, HBO programming president Casey Bloys recently confirmed to The Wrap that early talks for a prequel are already underway. He revealed that he and creator George R.R. Martin has already discussed some potential prequel ideas.
Bloys stated the HBO fantasy series is an incredible world with such great property and that it would be insane not to at least explore the idea of some sort of a prequel. However, he clarified that HBO has yet to pinpoint an exact point of time to focus on from the vast Westeros history for a potential spin-off.
