SDCC: Game Of Thrones Season 7 Panel Talks New Season And More

Who Will Take The Iron Throne?

♦Game Of Thrones began last Sunday 16 July on HBO and on Monday on Sky Atlantic and our friends at Flicks And The City just recorded the San Diego Comic-Con Game of Thrones panel so here it is…

The seventh season of the fantasy drama television series Game of Thrones started on HBO on 16 July 2017 and will conclude six weeks later on 27 August 2017. Unlike previous seasons that all consisted of ten episodes, the seventh season will consist of only seven episodes. Like the previous season, it will largely consist of original content currently not found in George R. R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire series, but also adapts material from the upcoming sixth and seventh novels The Winds of Winter and A Dream of Spring. The series is adapted for television by David Benioff and D. B. Weiss.

HBO ordered the seventh season on 21 April 2016, three days before the premiere of the show’s sixth season, and began filming on 31 August 2016. The season was filmed primarily in Northern Ireland, Spain, and Iceland.

Game of Thrones features a large ensemble cast, including Peter Dinklage, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Lena Headey, Emilia Clarke and Kit Harington. The season will introduce several new cast members, including Jim Broadbent and Tom Hopper.
