In the "A Song of Ice an Fire" novel "A Dance With Dragons," Bran has a vision where he sees a younger version of his now-dead father speaking to a Weirwood Tree. There has been some speculation about whether "Game of Thrones" will bring back Sean Bean to play Ned Stark if Bran's vision appears in the show. But apparently that might not be necessary, because Isaac Hempstead-Wright, who plays Bran, says that scene has already been filmed. "That was a scene from the pilot we shot, actually, and it never got used," Hempstead-Wright tells Zap2it. "It was really cool." Perhaps showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss shot the scene with the intention of holding it for later seasons? "Maybe they will!" Hempstead-Wright agrees. "Maybe we didn't use it for a reason and it was shot for some strange references 10 seasons later." Of course, it also could just be a coincidence. "A Dance With Dragons" was released on July 17, 2011 -- after "Game of Thrones" Season 1 had already aired. But considering that author George R.R. Martin already told Benioff and Weiss how the series will end and there was that whole Night's King reveal, he might have also told them to take advantage of their time with Bean while they had it.

At a public meeting in Sevilla, David Benioff and D.B. Weiss said that, five seasons into Game Of Thrones, they would finally be adding the third of the narrative devices they’d wanted to avoid after prophecies and dreams: flashbacks.

Game of Thrones seventh season may have been too fast, too predictable or too short, but let's not allow those issues to blind us to this season's real purpose; it was all about legacy and carrying the torch, while setting new rules, building new expectations and forging alliances in honor of not making the same mistakes of previous generations. Since the remaining Starks were foremost key players in Games of Thrones Season 7, having their patriarch's principles being a common occurrence was merely consequential. Eddard Stark lost his head in the show's first season (and, just like Arya and Sansa, we miss him), but his words and teachings migrated all the way into this season through his children. One might even say it was Ned Stark who shaped the future of Westeros in the war to come.
