When the first Game Of Thrones teaser told us to get ready for April, you can guarantee that people around the world were circling the entire month on their calendars. Fans of the show cannot wait for the new season to air, finally learning how things will conclude. While it's bittersweet that the series is coming to a close, there is no better time to say goodbye than when the show is still at the peak of its popularity. A few days ago, the runtime of each episode was seemingly leaked online and now, HBO is confirming the length of each episode and their air dates.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the final season of Game Of Thrones will clock in at a total of 432 minutes. The first two episodes are set to be the shortest ones at just under an hour while later episodes will all be approximately an hour and a half long. So basically, we're about to get six Game Of Thrones movies in six weeks. Pretty exciting, right?
Season 8 will air on a weekly basis from April 14 to May 19. As always, episodes will air on Sundays at 9 PM. Are you looking forward to the final season? Check out the air dates and runtimes below.
