But does that mean it’ll arrive before or after The Winds of Winter?
It’s going to be a long wait until we get to see those dragons again. Today, HBO said the eighth and final season of Game of Thrones won’t air until 2019, confirming months of speculation (and also the words of Sophie Turner herself). The season began filming in October, and though it’ll be only six episodes long, those episodes may all clock in around the 80-plus-minute range. Hey, it takes a lot of time and effort to fashion new coats for Daenerys.
