Season 7 will consist of seven episodes and all the episode will premiere possibly int the next few months after the scheduled April air date. Now the winter has arrived, executive producers David Benioff and D.B Weiss strongly beleive that the storylines would be better by starting the production a bit later than usual, when the weather will actually be changing.
According to Hollywood Reporter, Casey Bloys, President of HBO Programming, says that instead of show's traditional spring debut, it will be aired in summer to accomodate new shooting schedule.
