Fans have been dying to see "Game of Thrones" Season 8 as it is going to be the "biggest, most shocking, and incredible" season in the show's history. HBO is taking great measures to protect the series from leaks and spoilers, but it can't stop fans from creating theories and assumptions about what is going to happen at the show's ending - especially at the much-awaited Battle of Winterfell.
Fans are expecting to witness epic scenes in "Game of Thrones" Season 8 from the Battle at King's Landing, which may show Cersei's (Lena Headey) demise, to the possible Cleganebowl. They are also longing to see the Battle of Winterfell that presumably, the bloodiest battle that will happen in the North.
According to Screen Rant, the Battle of Winterfell is the biggest battle in show's history. It may also take an entire episode of "Game of Thrones" Season 8 as it took the cast members 55 days to shoot its outside production.
Showrunner David Benioff earlier revealed the Battle of Winterfell is a "big one" as the Night King's army is about to attack the castle. "We've been building toward this since the very beginning, it's the living against the dead," he said about "Game of Thrones" Season 8's grandest fight.
The Battle of Winterfell will follow "Game of Thrones" Season 8's major characters as they fight for their lives to survive. Peter Dinklage, who plays Tyrion's role, even described it as "brutal," and would surpass the "Battle of the Bastards," making it look like a "theme park."
Now the big question is, which "Game of Thrones" Season 8 episode will feature the Battle of Winterfell? As the White Walkers destroyed the wall and made their way up to the North in the previous season finale, it could be in Episode 3 to leave other episodes for build ups and dealing with the aftermath. But as it was said to be the grandest battle, it was also safe to assume HBO would save it as the final episode.
Talking about "Game of Thrones" Season 8 ending, Kit Harington, who leads Jon Snow's character, revealed he couldn't say if he was "happy or not" with the show's finale. "I'm satisfied with what they did, but I don't know whether I'll be really satisfied until I see it," he said, per Express.co.uk.
However, Kit Harington admitted it was "quite nice" knowing "Game of Thrones" Season 8's ending before everyone else. He proudly said he knew how it would wrap up, and teased it was going to be "groundbreaking." The new season's premiere episode would be out on April 14 on HBO.
