Take the Black Live: Is Game of Thrones punking us?

Welcome to Take the Black Live, the weekly Game of Thrones chat show where we report all the news about Game of Thrones and A Song of Ice and Fire that’s fit to print…er, talk about. Watch us blather above.

Our topics include:

  • Game of Thrones cast members showed up en masse in Seville over the past week-and-a-half, and cleared out as quickly as they arrived. Were they all there to film scenes at the nearby ruins of Italica, which stands in for the Dragonpit? It seemed like some of them were there just to throw fans off the scent. We try to separate the genuine article from the plants.
  • Filming on Game of Thrones is almost over. We know, but it took a cryptic tweet from Sophie Turner (Sansa) to bring it home.
  • While all that wackiness is going on in Seville, the crew is doing some very interesting things to the King’s Landing set in Belfast. Explosive things, even.
  • Finally, Emilia Clarke looks good wearing clothes. Pass it on.

We’ll be back with more Take the Black Live this upcoming Wednesday, May 23 at 4:00 CST on our Facebook page. Hope to see you there!

Next: Emilia Clarke still thinks Game of Thrones is filming multiple endings
