The dragons this year are the size of 747s, director Matt Shakman tells EW.

Drogon is the biggest of the bunch his flame is 30-feet in diameter!

He was probably being at least somewhat approximate when comparing the dragons to the venerable Boeing airliner.

But for reference, a 747 is about 230 feet long with a 210 feet wingspan.

Well leave exactly how to your imagination or until HBO unveils dragon-action footage from the new season.

(At some point, therewillbe a trailer … we hope!).

The Emmy-winningThronesreturns to HBO on July 16.
