First Game of Thrones Season 4 set photos of Red Viper and Ellaria

Season 4 of HBO's smash hit Game of Thrones is still a ways away, but fans can get a look (albeit a distant, somewhat fuzzy look) at Red Viper and Ellaria, two new characters in the fourth season of the show.

Spoiler TV posted the following two photos to give fans a taste of what they can expect when the show premieres for Season 4. This first one shows Pedro Pascal as Oberyn Martell (aka the Red Viper) and Indira Varma as Ellaria Sand:

And this second one offers a glimpse of Hafthor Bjornsson as Gregor Clegane:

For those of you who want some Season 4 spoilers, George R.R. Martin, who wrote the books on which Game of Thrones is based, revealed in an interview with TV Guide in September that King Joffrey's royal wedding in the upcoming season could be an even bigger affair than the famous Red Wedding that took place in the penultimate episode of Season 3:

"It's going to be the wedding of the year, and as memorable in its own way as our wedding last season...It's what the fans call the Purple Wedding, based on the color of the wine, which plays a big part."

Martin also told the site that the wedding scenes "look spectacular. The bride's dress incorporates roses, there are 77 courses at the dinner feast, and there's some wonderful halftime entertainment."

As of this writing, there is no official airdate for the Season 4 premiere, but it is scheduled for "Early 2014."
