To celebrate the announcement that HBO's standalone service will be launching exclusively on Apple TV — just in time for the Game of Thrones premiere — CEO Richard Plepler took the stage and debuted a new trailer for the upcoming season.

"Baratheon. Starks. Tyrell. They're all just spokes on a wheel. This one's on top, 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." — Daenerys TargaryenAlso, it looks like those dragons have grown quite a bit, no?
