　　Now Playing: Game Of Thrones Season 8 Documentary Coming To HBO After Finale - GameSpot Universe News Update

　　But before fans get an in-depth look at how it all came together, the final season of Game of Thrones has to air, and it's premiering on Sunday, April 14. Earlier in the month, the first trailer for the series was revealed, and it left fans with a lot of questions and even more theories as to where Season 8 will go. Hopefully, it's a step in the right direction, as the last battle with the White Walkers in Season 7, Episode 6--"Beyond the Wall"--had some serious problems.

　　However, even after someone takes their seat on the Iron Throne, there are still more stories from Westeros to be told. A prequel series, which has been rumored will be called The Long Night, is set to start filming this summer.

　　The Long Night refers to an era that takes place 8,000 years before the events of Game of Thrones, and according to the Stark family's servant Old Nan on Game of Thrones, "There came a night that lasted a generation, and kings shivered and died in their castles even as the swineherds in their hovels. Women smothered their children rather than see them starve, and cried, and felt their tears freeze on their cheeks."

　　Jane Goldman (X-Men: First Class) will serve as showrunner, and it is expected to premiere in 2020 or 2021.
