Balian Tyrell is a recurring character in the first, second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth seasons. Balian is Lord Mace Tyrell's younger brother. He was King Aerys II's Master of Laws and one of his most trusted advisers and closest friends. His relationship with Aerys culminated in a growing madness which reached its peak at the conclusion of Robert's Rebellion.

Harrington isn’t giving out any spoilers about the new season, which is based on a book series, so it shouldn’t be so hard to figure out, but let a little bit slip about his character Jon Snow. He said 'Well I do know where he goes… I'd like him to go and rescue Arya, but I don't think he's going to be able to. I'd like to see him collect Sansa, Arya, and Bran and just take them to the wall or something.'
'Game of Thrones' comes back with season 4 in spring 2014.
