Sophie Turner, a.k.a. the Queen in the North, is back in the cold in Quibi’s first teaser for its upcoming thriller “Survive” — only this time the “Game of Thrones” alum isn’t fighting White Walkers to stay alive, but the frigid conditions she’s found herself in after a plane crash.
In the 52-second clip, which you can view above, Turner’s character Jane is flying home after a stint in a treatment center where she appears to have been recovering from something (note the group-therapy session and pill bottles) but we don’t know what, and we don’t have time to find out, seeing as that aircraft doesn’t make it to its final destination.
Now Jane and Paul (Corey Hawkins), the only two passengers to live through the crash, are “totally screwed” and need to find a way to live through the horrifying situation they’ve found themselves in.

Get excited, Game of Thrones fans, because Sophie Turner has hung up her Queen Sansa crown and booked her first series since wrapping the hit HBO series. Survive, which will premiere on Quibi, is based on a novel of the same name by Alex Morel and follows the story of two plane crash survivors, Jane (Turner) and Paul (BlacKkKlansman's Corey Hawkins), according to The Hollywood Reporter.
"I only hope this can impact anyone struggling with self-worth to understand they are braver than they know."
The series will focus on Jane and Paul's journey through the wilderness after digging themselves out from the wreckage of the crash site, where they'll face brutal conditions and have to deal with their own personal traumas.
