The dark-haired Hightower family is also in the trailer. Olivia Cooke (Ready Player One) is Lady Alicent Hightower, Rhys Ifans (Notting Hill) will play her father Ser Otto Hightower.
Other characters shown include Wil Johnson (Outlander) as Ser Vaemond Velaryon. John MacMillan (Chewing Gum) is Ser Laenor Velaryon, Savannah Steyn plays Lady Laena Velaryon, and Theo Nate stars as Ser Laenor Velaryon.
