Well here’s some news that oughta keep you going until April: HBO has confirmed the “Game of Thrones” special rumored to have shot in Belfast earlier this year with former and current cast members — including Sean Bean a.k.a. Ned Stark — is for sure a reality and will be made available to fans in 2019.
Just not on the premium cable network.
The reunion special — which was hosted by Conan O’Brien — will instead be a “DVD initiative,” included in a complete series box set that will be comprised of Season 1-8, a spokesperson for HBO tells TheWrap.
