A reunion is coming!
Hold on to your Valyrian steel swords because a Game of Thrones reunion special has been confirmed. The Seven Kingdoms’ biggest star will get together one more time in a special hosted by Conan O’Brien.
The Hollywood Reporter confirms that the special, which was shot in the series’ primary filming location, Belfast, will not air on HBO, but rather be as part of a complete series box set. This means that it will arrive and be available to watch only after the series finale has aired.
News of the reunion surfaces after Sean Bean, who starred as the beloved Ned Stark, leased news of the special during an interview.
“It was for season eight, the last one. So they decided to get all the characters together for a bit for this big show in Belfast and [O’Brien] kind of hosted the evening,” he said.
“It was the last episode, so we all got together,” added Bean. “It was good! It’s funny with work, you don’t really keep in touch. You do so many types of jobs in that part of the world. It’s just like whenever I see old friends or even old drama school friends, it’s just the same, we pick up where we left off last time.”
Game of Thrones returns for its final six episodes in April.
