Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Game of Thrones stars Kristian Nairn and Isaac Hempstead Wright reunite seven years after "The Door," a standout episode for their characters. In the critically acclaimed HBO series, Hempstead Wright played Brandon Stark, most commonly known as "Bran," who goes on a deeply mystical journey throughout all eight seasons. Nairn played Hodor, a servant of House Stark who is deeply loyal to Bran.
Why "The Door" Is An Iconic Game Of Thrones Episode While Game of Thrones' "The Door" features many scenes across Westeros and Essos, the scenes beyond the Wall with Bran and Hodor are what make the episode iconic. Hodor, the loyal and simpleminded servant who can only say his name, was always present in Bran's story, but there was never much exploration of his character.
The other part of his mind remained in a vision of the past where the Three-Eyed Raven gave Bran all the memories and knowledge he needed to be the next Three-Eyed Raven. In the present, Hodor defended his companions from the Army of the Dead and was repeatedly told by Meera to "hold the door," which he does, even as the wights kill him.
Viewers realized that Bran was responsible for Wylis becoming Hodor just as Hodor sacrificed his life in the present to save Bran and Meera. Unlike most of the major plot twists that had occurred in Game of Thrones up to this point, this revelation hadn't occurred yet in the books, which made it a shock for all audiences.
