Winter is finally set to bid goodbye to “Game of Throne” as HBO has confirmed the popular fantasy series will go off air after its eighth season.
New HBO programming president Casey Bloys told the press on Saturday at the Television Critics Association’s summer press tour that the plan is for the yet-to-be announced eighth season of the adaptation of George RR Martin’s novel to be its last, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Though the episode count, and a potential spin-off, remain big questions.
Meanwhile, the upcoming seventh season will premiere in summer 2017.
The seven-episode drama will be based in Northern Ireland with portions filming in Spain and Iceland.
