Game Of Thrones can't seem to stop leaks from hitting the web. Two years ago, almost every single episode in season 7 of Game Of Thrones leaked early, many of them just hours before they premiered. The same issue has been plaguing the current season of the fantasy drama. Both episodes 1 and 2 leaked early, although the epic "Long Night" episode dropped as planned. Now, according to a report by ComicBook.com, Game Of Thrones season 8 episode 4 has hit social media in fragments. A video of about 30-seconds surfaced on Twitter and Youtube ahead of its premiere tonight, although it has been removed at almost every source. Mild spoilers below, beware.
The leak contained spoilers connected to a death, which is all that I will mention here. In a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, Kit Harrington stated that episode 4 is his favorite of the season. “One of my favorite episodes is 4 because the characters have seemingly got what they needed,” Harington stated. “The world is safe now. They’re celebrating and saying goodbye to lost friends. But as an audience you’re going, ‘This is only episode 4, something’s going to happen.’ And that’s the cool thing because I think the characters are aware of this as well. There’s something twisted and uncomfortable about it. It’s so Shakespearian.” It looks like the worse is yet to come.
