“GOT” season 7 to feature the longest episode everJune 9, 2017 - 10:51 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - "Game of Thrones" will spoil fans with the longest episode ever despite the fact that the upcoming season 7 will consist of only seven episodes. Showrunner Dan Weiss and David Benioff have revealed that the season finale will be almost 90 minutes, AceShowbiz said. "We have two episodes over 60 minutes this year," Weiss tells EW. Benioff chimes in, "One will be our longest episode ever - it's coming in around 90 minutes," before adding, "Another is going to be our shortest episode at 50 minutes." HBO hasn't confirmed any run times aside from the season premiere, which has been listed as 59 minutes. However, reports say that the season finale will be 81 minutes and episode six, the penultimate episode, will be 71 minutes long. The previous longest episode of the series was the season 6 finale, which ran 69 minutes. Weiss previously said that season 7 would feature more of some major characters, like Dany (Emilia Clarke), Tyrion (Peter Dinklage) and Jon Snow (Kit Harington). He explained, "You kill a couple dozen characters, the people who are left by default need to carry more dramatic weight." The other reason is that some main characters are coming together more often than ever before, so you will see them sharing scenes rather than being filmed in separate locations. "As the worlds start to converge the characters who haven't met each other before start to meet each other and there are more main characters together in each other's storylines than ever before," Weiss said. The new season of the hit medieval drama premieres Sunday, July 16 on HBO. Top stories The creative crew of the Public TV had chosen 13-year-old Malena as a participant of this year's contest.
