HBO will be airing a feature-length Game of Thrones documentary on May 27th at 9am (MYT), which is a week after the series finale. The two-hour documentary titled Game of Thrones: The Last Watch was directed by Jeanie Finlay (Seahorse), with showrunners David Benioff and D.B Weiss serving as executive producers. According to HBO, the show will dive “deep into the mud and blood to reveal the tears and triumphs involved in the challenge of bringing the fantasy world of Westeros to life in the very real studios, fields and car-parks of Northern Ireland.” Here’s a statement from HBO: Just thinking about the doc gives me the feels. As someone who has watched the series multiple times and even has a Game of Thrones tattoo, I am eager to take a deeper dive into the world and gain some delicious behind-the-scenes insights. Much more than a “making of” documentary, this is a funny, heartbreaking story, told with wit and intimacy, about the bittersweet pleasures of what it means to create a world — and then have to say goodbye to it. Game of Thrones: The Last Watch will premiere on HBO/HBO On Demand on May 27th at 9 am (MYT) and encore on the same day at 10 pm.
