Last Game of Thrones season Eighth and final GOT season Final season Game of Thrones 2019 Six episodes last season GOT Jon Snow HBO

In a press release sent out Thursday afternoon, HBO confirmed the longstanding reports that "Game of Thrones" will not be returning to television this year.

"Our production people are trying to figure out a timeline for the shoot and how much time the special effects take", HBO programming president Casey Bloys told The Hollywood Reporter. "Game of Thrones" star Sophie Turner (Sansa Stark) also said the series would air in 2019.

HBO has said it will be filming and scripting multiple endings to confuse leakers, so even if these pages did come from HBO, or a set, or the set caterer's trash can, they still might not reveal anything from the final season.

There are probably members of the British royal family that are guarded less closely than the Game of Thrones scripts, but a new alleged leak is turning the internet into a minefield for fans.

Weiss and Benioff have been co-creators, executive producers and showrunners for every season of the hit show.

It's been years and several seasons since the last time that Mr. Benioff and Mr. Weiss directed an episode. "Game of Thrones" sound designer Paula Fairfield broke this important news at the first annual Con of Thrones.

The final season of Fox TV's "New Girl" will debut April 10, picking up the characters' lives a few years after they were last seen.

"The executive producers of the series are David Benioff, D.B. Weiss, Carolyn Strauss, Frank Doelger and Bernadette Caulfield".

The previous season, the seventh, introduced just seven chapters, and the longest lasted around 80 minutes. Among Nutter's six helming credits on the series is the Season 5 finale "Mother's Mercy" that featured Queen Cersei's memorable walk of atonement.

The series is HBO's biggest hit ever with some 30 million viewers in the United States alone and an army of devoted fans worldwide.
