SEASON 7 IS COMING Game of Thrones’ season 7 premiere date ‘leaked’ after eagle-eyed fans spot broadcast listing online

The date for the much-anticipated new season appeared briefly on the television listing site IMDb before it was removed

A SPOILER seen by eagle-eyed fans may have just revealed the premiere date for the second to last ever season of hit show Game of Thrones.

The eagerly-anticipated return of GoT Season 7 was stated as June 25 on the television listings site IMDb.

 

Cersei Lannister currently sits on the Iron Throne, but what will happen next when the hugely popular show returns this summer 

The show featuring Jon Snow diverged from the books after overtaking the storyline in Series Six

This information was swiftly deleted but not before it was screen-grabbed by fans, reported the Metro.

GoT fans have been craving its return ever since the last season ended with Jon Snow being hailed King of the North and Cersei taking power in Westeros ahead of an imminent invasion by dragon queen Daenerys Targaryen.

The hit show normally resumes in April but it was pushed back to the summer when the production overran, as GoT creators revealed Season 7 will be the penultimate one.

Recently author George R. R. Martin confirmed his long-awaited sixth book - The Winds of Winter - will finally be released in 2017 six years after his last masterpiece.

The TV drama has been based on the novelist’s popular tales, but it diverged in season six as the show overtook Martin’s writing.

Earlier this month the cast were reunited at the Golden Globe Awards in Los Angeles.

Meanwhile Iain Glen, who plays unlucky-in-love Ser Jorah Mormont, has revealed that the next penultimate season is so monumental that in the time it has taken to film seven episodes, they would have usually filmed ten.

He added: “I think the scale and size of the set pieces, the world that is being created it’s just getting more and more extraordinary and they feel they need that time to shoot seven hours as opposed to ten.

"You feel that the drama is moving towards its end game, more characters are overlapping so we are seeing a lot more of each other, than perhaps in the past."
