In this thrilling fourth season based on George R.R. Martin's bestselling books, the Lannisters' control over the Iron Throne remains intact, but can they survive their own egos as well as the ongoing threats around them? While an unshaken Stannis Baratheon (Stephen Dillane) continues to rebuild his army on Dragonstone, a more immediate danger comes from the south, as Oberyn Martell (Pedro Pascal), the Lannister- loathing "Red Viper of Dome", arrives at King's Landing to attend Joffrey's wedding.
