FACT#49: Directors for Game of Thrones Season 5 announced.
Entertainment Weekly has just released a breakdown of directors for Game of Thrones Season 5.
The fifth season of Game of Thrones will have five directors, with each taking charge of two back to back episodes. It looks like we're in for a batch of newcomers to the show next year, with only one familiar name on the list, David Nutter, who will be closing out the season with the last two episodes.
We've already learned that Michael Slovis will be at the helm of the first two episodes, but we can also welcome Mark Mylod, Jeremy Podeswa, and Miguel Sapochnik into the fold. Notably absent are Alex Graves, Neil Marshall, Michelle MacLaren, and Alik Sakharov, as well as our showrunners, David Benioff and Dan Weiss, who are likely focusing on other aspects of the upcoming season.
