Apparently, this season's Game of Thrones will feature scenes even bloodier than season four's battle between the Mountain and the Viper.

According to The Christian Post, "fans of the series should expect more doses of gore and violence in the upcoming fifth season of the show."

Actor Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, who plays Kingsguard Jaime Lannister, said that followers of HBO's hit television fantasy series should brace themselves for even more plot twists and bloodier scenes this season.

In an interview with Independent, the actor made the following statement: "This new season is bloodier and more shocking than ever before. That's pretty much the only thing I can confirm. Viewers won't be bored, put it that way. You read the script and think, 'whoa, are they really going to go that far?' It's the beauty of the show."

Coster-Waldau, 44, also said that even though the author of the book upon which the series is based, George R. R. Martin, still continues to develop the book series, there may only be a few more seasons of Game of Thrones left in store.

He says that since most shows only get seven seasons, the writers may be working towards that goal. The interest in the show might start to slow down around that point.

In addition, there have been several spoiler reports for the show's fifth season including titles for the fifth, sixth and seventh episodes.

Episode 5 is apparently called "Kill the Boy", while Episode 6 is entitled "Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken", and Episode 7 will be called "The Gift".
