Seven kingdoms ! Seven gods ! And now , season seven of Game of Thrones will only have seven episode ! Coincidence ? ! Almost sure enough !
Boththe showrunnersandthe directorshaven’t exactly keep Game of Thrones ’ abridge last seasons a secret , but now HBO has specified there will be only seven new installment of the show aerate next year , and that the seasonwill indeedpremiere subsequently than usual . FromVariety :
“ Now that wintertime has arrived on ‘ Game of Thrones , ’ executive producers David Benioff and D.B. Weiss felt that the plot line of the next time of year would be better serve by starting output a little later than usual , when the weather is changing , ” pronounce Casey Bloys , chairperson , HBO programing . “ or else of the show ’s traditional spring debut , we ’re moving the debut to summertime to accommodate the shooting docket . ”
Specifically , they have to hold back to shoot until actual winter come , because , well , winter has finally fall to Westeros . But that ’s only for southerly locations like King ’s Landing ; the show will also be filming part of the forthcoming season in Iceland , presumably for places the winter will hit hard ( e.g. Winterfell ) .
Anyway , I ’m going to put my money on time of year eight also sustain seven episodes , but with the final episode being a massive , two - minute heroic poem , thus resulting in the 75 - hour totality that Benioff has said they always had in idea from the beginning . And I ’ll please a smaller , secondary stakes on the last two episodes both being an time of day and a half long , with the penultimate installment being the concluding fight with the White Walkers and the finale being an epilog ( there ’s die to be a lot of material to wrap up , after all ) .
Anyone need to bet against me ?
