Per Deadline “Game of Thrones” marks the TV debut of Marshall, and other directors tapped for Season 2 of the Emmy-nominated “Game of Thrones” include top TV helmers Alan Taylor, who worked on the series’ freshman season, and David Nutter as well as Alik Sakharov and David Petrarca (Boardwalk Empire).
Now, as for what we can expect during Season 2, series creators David Benioff and D.B. Weiss told HBO in a recent interview: With the birth of the dragons, magic has kind of returned to the world. We saw glimpses of it in the first season with the white walkers north of the Wall and obviously the dragons being hatched. This is a world where people haven’t seen much magic in the past few centuries, and they’re starting to think it’s just superstition at this point. And in the second season it becomes more and more evident that there are supernatural forces at work. There are people who try to channel them for their own purposes, and there are those who desperately try to avoid them – or combat them.
Hit up the link for the rest of their interview, and know that we’ll be keeping our eyes on “Game of Thrones” as it inches ever closer to the horror side of the fantasy fence.
