It’s time to recap the biggest Game of Thrones-related stories from the past week. And this week, the biggest stories all had one thing in common: they were all chock-full of SPOILERS. If you don’t want to know what’s coming in Season 7, then you don’t want to be in this post.

Let’s begin.


The production was busy this week filming scenes on Itzurun Beach in Zumaia, Spain. This area will stand in for Dragonstone, and all manner of actors were photographed on set, including Emilia Clarke (Daenerys), Kit Harington (Jon Snow), Peter Dinklage (Tyrion Lannister), and Alfie Allen (Theon Greyjoy). The worlds are coming together.

The pictures kept coming. This time, Iain Glen (Jorah) was photographed on Itzurun Beach, meaning that Jorah will reunite with his Dragon Queen yet again. Will it work out for him this time?

Joe Dempsie (Gendry) was on set as well. He seems to be in a new, much posher outfit. Check out shots of him, and other cast members, below.

There are plenty more pics to pick through, but we’ll end it with this set of Harington and Clarke playing with dragon prop heads. Or is there a deeper meaning?

But in the midst of filming, life went on. Emilia Clarke celebrated her 30th birthday last weekend with a couple of very special friends.

Instead of looking forward, look back. We rank all ten episodes of Game of Thrones Season 6.

George R.R. Martin has worked out how to cross Westworld with Game of Thrones. Sure, why not?

HBO is currently filming Season 7, but it’s not too early to start thinking about Season 8. It looks like the network may already be at it.

We’ve got info on the directing lineup for Game of Thrones Season 7. Click on for that and more.

Not all the filming activity is happening in Spain. There’s activity in Northern Ireland, too.

Lastly, we take time on the Take the Black podcast to address a big leak floating around the internet. Has the plot of Game of Thrones Season 7 been completely spoiled already?
