'Game Of Thrones' Season 8 Plot Theory, Spoilers: All Episodes Will Be Spectacular, Cast Member Teased
Fans of "Game Of Thrones" should expect to more action-packed episodes in its eighth and final season.
In an interview with Huffington Post, actor John Bradley revealed that directors Miguel Sapochnik and David Nutter who were both in charge with some of the most epic episodes in the past had been called to work on the set of "Game Of Thrones" season 8.
"Miguel and David have done some of the standout episodes of previous seasons," the actor who portrays the role of Sam Tarly in the HBO adaptation of George R.R. Martin's "A Song of Ice and Fire" novels stated. "Clearly every single episode of the six you've got left in season 8 is gonna be monumental and needs somebody at the helm who's done that kind of high-stakes, high-octane direction before for us."
He also mentioned that the people behind the production of the epic saga refer to all the episodes that feature a lot of spectacular scenes as "Episode 9." That is why he teased that all the six remaining episodes of the series can be considered as "Episode 9s."
Aside from Sapochnik and Nutter, showrunners David Benioff and Dan Weiss were reportedly confirmed to direct the finale of the fan-favorite TV series. This made Bradley believe that the show's very last installment will be extra special.
"It's in the right hands there," the actor also said in the interview. "They know everything about the show. They've been in charge of everything ― every key decision in all seven seasons so far has been made by David and Dan. I think they've done an incredible job with this series. They deserve everything they get, and they deserve the right to finish this show off in the way they see fit. I don't think there's anybody better qualified, so I can't wait."
In another news, Variety revealed that HBO allocated as much as $15 million for the budget of each episode for "Game of Thrones" season 8.
