HBO just announced it’s bringing a new streaming service called HBO NOW to Apple this April, just in time for the premiere of season five of Game of Thrones. The agreement between HBO and Apple gives subscribers the opportunity to watch HBO programs using the HBO NOW app on iPhones, iPads, and Apple TV for a subscription fee of $14.95. During the announcement at the Apple Live event, HBO revealed a brand new trailer for Game of Thrones season five featuring new clips of all the key players.
The nearly two minute trailer features Tyrion Lannister (Peter Dinklage), Cersei Lannister (Lena Headey), Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke), Jon Snow (Kit Harington), and Stannis Baratheon (Stephen Dillane), and kicks off with Daenerys calling out her enemies: “Lannister, Baratheon, Stark, Tyrell…they are all just spokes on a wheel. This one’s on top and then that one’s on top, and on and on it spins, crushing those on the ground. I’m not going to stop the wheel, I’m going to break the wheel.”
Game of Thrones season five premieres on April 12, 2015 at 9:00pm ET/PT.
