However, the actor who portrays the terrifying Night King has revealed that the battle will actually take place in episode three: right in the middle of the six-episode series.
Game of Thrones excitement for the eighth and final season is already reaching fever pitch, and that’s without additional hints from cast members.
It’s possible that a few temporary alliances will be formed when (if?!) the Night King and his army is defeated, but also likely that Jon Snow, Daenerys and the Lannisters will be fighting one another for the Iron Throne as soon as the battle is over.
Game of Thrones season eight is slated to air in April 2019.
