The directors for the upcoming season have been revealed;
? Jeremy Podeswa (Episodes 1 & 2): A veteran of Showtime?s Tudors and HBO?s Boardwalk Empire, Podeswa is returning to Thrones for the second year in a row. In season 5, he directed two episodes from the middle of the season, ?Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken? and ?Kill the Boy.?
? Daniel Sackheim (3 & 4): Sackheim is new to Thrones with a long list of credits going back to being an associate producer on 1980s classic Miami Vice. He?s directed episodes of several Fox shows (The X-Files, Lie to Me, House) and most recently directed six episodes of FX?s The Americans.
? Jack Bender (5 & 6): An intriguing new name, Bender is familiar to fans of ABC?s Lost, having directed a whopping 38 episodes of the series, including many of the show?s premieres and finales. He?s also helmed episodes of CBS? Under the Dome, TNT?s The Last Ship and Fox?s Alcatraz.
? Mark Mylod (7 & 8): Mylod is a premium cable veteran of shows like Showtime?s Shameless and HBO?s Entourage. He directed the third and fourth episode of season 5, ?High Sparrow? and ?Sons of the Harpy.?
? Miguel Sapochnik (9 &10): This name will likely cause some speculation. Sapochnik really earned his GoT stripes by helming the stunning ?Hardhome? episode last season featuring White Walkers? undead army. He also directed the seventh episode of the season, ?The Gift.? That Sapochnik is helming the penultimate episode and the season 6 finale might suggest we?re in for another epic battle climax given his ?Hardhome? acclaim.
