Just a little over a week before the Game of Thrones Season 4 premiere, HBO has made it pretty clear that the epic drama won't be going anywhere for awhile.

　　《权力的游戏》第四季还有一周多的时间就要开播了，HBO电视台已经确定这部剧短期内不会出现什么意外。

　　Showrunners David Benioff and Dan Weiss have signed on to lead the series for at least two seasons beyond this one.

　　因为制片人David Benioff和Dan Weiss已经又签约了两季。

　　Benioff and Weiss originated the project and have generally been praised for sticking close to George R.R. Martin’s source material.

　　Benioff和Weiss是《权力的游戏》在最开始和乔治马丁筹备的时候就在的原版人马，而他们的表现也颇受赞扬。

　　HBO has not yet picked Game of Thrones up beyond Season 4, but this is premium cable’s most-watched program; it can write its own ticket for as long as it wants.

　　虽然HBO电视台现在还没有宣布续订《权力的游戏》第四季之后的剧集，不过《权力的游戏》可是收费台收视率最高的节目，接 下来被签约多季是非常有保证的。

　　Benioff and Weiss recently said, however, that it will likely conclude after seven seasons.

　　Benioff和Weiss最近表示，他们希望《权力的游戏》第七季能够大结局。
