It can be recalled that the show's premiere was delayed by its production. It was supposed to start airing on April since the producers wanted to capture the kind of weather for the series. As of the moment, the production was already based on the Northern Ireland which also had some portions that were filmed in Spain and Iceland.

As per source, the upcoming season will only have seven episodes instead of the usual ten. However, despite the new number of scenes, the production still had spent the same amount of time for its shooting since they actually did it for about five months.

The production expects every episode of the season 7 to be epically beautiful. After season 7, the fans might expect to have it followed by a final run next year, however, it wasn't confirmed by the network.
