Earlier this month, HBO confirmed Game of Thrones will return for its eigth and final season in 2019, and now actress Maisie Williams has revealed the exact month.
Speaking to Metro News, Williams, who plays Arya Stark in the show, revealed that the first episode of Season 8 will premiere in April 2019.
"We wrap in December and we air our first episode in April [2019]," Williams said. "That’s a four-month turnaround for these huge episodes. There’s a lot that goes into the final edit. You would not want to rush this season at all. We owe it to our audience and our fans to really do this final season to the best of our abilities."
Season 8 will mark the final season of the incredibly popular Game of Thrones, which means Arya's long-winding journey will finally come to an end. Williams was asked how she hopes Arya's story wraps up.
"I’ve always said I wanted her to find peace," Williams said. "The things that have been driving her through her story have been very bitter and twisted and aggressive. I would love for Arya to find her true self again and let go of this anger and revenge that’s accompanied her on this journey. I’d love for her to be happy."
With the month now confirmed, let the countdown towards Game of Thrones Season 8 begin.
