HBO has officially confirmed the rumours that Game of Thrones will end after eight seasons.
The show, one of the most popular on the network, will air its final season in 2018 (with the seventh season airing in 2017).
However, some followers want to see the show go beyond eight seasons, including HBO’s President of Programming Casey Bloys:
“Yes. they have a very specific plan about the number of seasons they want to do,” Bloys said. “Believe me, as the new [programming executive] coming in, if I could get them to do more, I would take 10 more seasons. But we take their lead on what they think they can do the best version of the show.”
There have also been rumours about a possible Game of Thrones spin-off series. Bloys confirmed that there have been discussions on the subject:
“We’ve talked about it, it’s something I’m not opposed to, but of course it has to make sense creatively. I’m not sure that the guys could really wrap their heads around it when they’re just about to start production. It’s a pretty intense production, they’re about to start production soon. I’m open to it. The guys weren’t opposed to it, but there’s no concrete plans for it at this point.”

DC Comics fans have known for a long time that Batman (Ben Affleck) would have a role in the Suicide Squad movie, as shown from footage of Batman in the trailers and marketing for the film. Interestingly, Affleck isn’t credited on the official cast list from Warner Bros. for the film. However, the cast list (and the release of the film) revealed another member of the Justice League that features in the film.
*Only read on if you want to know who the second member is as this is a spoiler alert warning.*

The Flash (Ezra Miller) makes an appearance in the film. The cast list is in order of when the character first shows up in the film. This means that The Flash’s cameo comes after the first appearance of Captain Boomerang in the film.
The list (above) also indicates that the film will start by focusing on Deadshot (Will Smith). It doesn’t show the entire cast list though.
The Suicide Squad movie is in cinemas now.
