Lotta GOT newbies in there, I'll be curious to see what they bring to the table.'Game of Thrones' season 5 directors chosen

Who will command the Game of Thrones production army next season?
There are five directors, each charged with helming two episodes each in season 5. Back in the mix this year: David Nutter, who directed the incredible The Rains of Castamere episode (aka The Red Wedding) in season 3. Nutter returns to helm next years ever-crucial ninth episode and the season 5 finale.
Absent from the list this round: Alex Graves, who directed four episodes last season, and Neil Marshall, who scored an Emmy nomination last week for his work on the ninth episode of season 4, The Watchers on The Wall (aka The Battle of Castle Black). Also taking a break this season are showrunners David Benioff and Dan Weiss, who previously directed an episode each. In fact, aside from Nutter, all the directors next season are new to the show. Below is the list of Thrones directors for season 5, exclusively on EW.com:
Episodes 501 and 502: Michael Slovis (episodes of AMCs Breaking Bad, NBCs Law & Order: SVU)
Episodes 503 and 504: Mark Mylod (episodes of Showtimes Shameless and HBOs Entourage)
Episodes 505 and 506: Jeremy Podeswa (episodes of HBOs Boardwalk Empire and Showtimes The Tudors)
Episodes 507 and 508: Miguel Sapochnik (episodes of Foxs House and Fringe)
Episodes 509 and 510: David Nutter (known as the pilot whisperer for his track record in getting pilots picked up to series; Nutter directed four epiosdes of Thrones, plus many other shows)
