Game of Thrones has finished filming for the season!
The GoT writer gives a great interview in the current issue. One notable highlight:
“Today, I just came from the set where one of the iconic sword fights of the book is being shot, and any fan of the books will know what I am talking about,” he reveals. “I sat watching and thought to myself, ‘I’ve been waiting to see this scene shot in front of me for four years’, and I know fans have been waiting even longer than that. I’m thrilled that we can offer some of those moments this season.”
Looks like Iceland filming is finishing up- weather permitting!
Looks like GoT has arrived in Iceland!
The crew is off to Iceland in just four days, so it looks like filming may begin there soon.
Onward to Iceland!
A tourist in Essaouira snapped these photos of the area where filming was occuring, and some props. And of course, the shuttle.

“The crew of the popular U.S. television series Game of Thrones is expected to come to Iceland for filming in November, as they did last year. This time the scenes for the series will mostly be shot around Lake Mývatn in Northeast Iceland.

In November 2011, shooting mostly took place by Svínafellsjökull glacier in Southeast Iceland. However, as snowfall is more likely in the north, the crew decided on a different location this year, ruv.is reports.
Filming is scheduled between November 12 or 13 and November 27 or 28 and up to 70 Icelanders will be cast as extras. More than 200 people will work on the project.”

A Northern Ireland local tweeted this today. In addition to the shack, there’s the stick with the ragged fabric poking in on the left. A banner, a sail…?
