Game of Thrones season six starts presently , and it ’s becoming obvious that we ’re guide towards the show ’s end game . But even then , it ’s a fleck surprising to see just how exit the end could be — and how it might come about . It turns out , there ’s less Game of Thrones provide than anyone realized .

The news comes from two report released late last night , first from Variety , and then from Entertainment Weekly . Variety ’s initial report , an interview with executive produces David Benioff and D.B. Weiss , saw Benioff monotone out state that the season seven and eight of Game of Thrones might be little than the 10 - sequence seasons the show has always had until now . In fact , the terminal two seasons might be just 13 episode total :

I think we ’re down to our final 13 episodes after this season . We ’re heading into the last overlap . That ’s the guess , though nothing is yet set in Harlan F. Stone , but that ’s what we ’re reckon at .

They continued that the seventh and eight season , presumably the concluding two for the show , would have seven and six episodes severally . These exact numbers were premature , agree to Variety ’s sources , but were n’t out of the realm of possibleness . For now , design for those last two season are in the earliest stage of ontogenesis .

In the wake of Variety ’s interview , HBO issued a statement stating that no details had been finalized , whichEntertainment Weeklybacked up . But apparently , Benioff and Weiss had tell EW ’s reporters the same matter about their plans in an audience last October .

So even if deals have yet to be made , it seems that Game of Thrones ’ producers have at least been reckon for a while about how shortly the show will terminate , and how much story they actually have left after season six .

Bear in idea , these plans are not absolutely final — HBO could push for more episodes in season seven and eight , or they could mix both season together into one mega concluding season . We do n’t really roll in the hay yet . But no matter how you look at it , after season six comes to a finale in the coming months , we wo n’t have much clip left in the Land of Westeros .
