In light of the major hack and the immense interest in the Game of Thrones scripts and plot summaries it uncovered, HBO is taking no chances with spoilerific documents pertaining to the final season.
Game of Thrones season 8 has yet to be given a release date, but new production details suggest it won’t be until 2019.
The actor appears to be suggesting that the scripts can now only be viewed in a secure location – presumably in the show’s Belfast studios.
This all might sound a bit extreme, but Game of Thrones is a multi-million dollar vehicle and HBO are apt to want to do everything they can to stop the show’s final season from being spoiled, as the penultimate one was to an extent.
