As the sixth season hurtled towards an epic end, Game of Thrones outdid itself with a fantastic and gripping storyline to amaze fans throughout the world. But this epic saga is soon to end, as showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss have confirmed in a recent interview.
Game of Thrones has just 13 episodes left, which will be divided into two seasons as the creators plan to wrap up one of the best shows of the decade.
“I think we’re down to our final 13 episodes after this season. We’re heading into the final lap.”
Benioff and Weise said that they aren’t planning to elongate the next two seasons as they are definitely nearing the end of the story. In a recent interview, Benioff was quoted saying,
David further said that they have had an endgame in mind ever since the show started, and they have known the ending, so they’re gearing up to conclude the story for the fans.
“If people watched it end to end, it would make sense as one continuous story. We’re definitely heading into the end game now.”
Benioff and Weise agreed, saying that now that the pieces on the board are what they wanted them as, they want to end it without any unnecessary elongations. They wanted the show to be one continuous story, and that’s what they are going to do.
Now that season 6 has ended, and the story has completely surpassed the books, all we can do is wait and see how David and D.B. give shape to George R.R. Martin’s story.
