We will get the entire main cast until the end of 2020, and then shooting will start at some point next year. S1-6 of Game of Thrones took like 5 months to shoot, it would start in late July and end in the middle of December. We will see if this show follows the same schedule.

S1-6 of Game of Thrones took like 5 months to shoot, it would start in late July and end in the middle of December. We will see if this show follows the same schedule. I think the shoot may be a bit longer because I think there'll be some expectation of scale unlike early GoT and Sapochnik's involvement points to at least some battles (though other than the Stepstones stuff I dunno what that could be in s1). And with so many dragons, I guess that means a lot of greenscreen dragon rig riding. Incidentally, something I didn't highlight in the post I linked above, the show seems to be being shot in England rather than NI. I don't know what that means for the GoT sets in Belfast. It could potentially mean a different looking Red Keep, though of course they could dismantle those sets piece by piece and move them to the new studio they're shooting at, or reasonably recreate them from blueprint. Also it means that the giant KL set they made for ep. 805, won't be used again which seems kind of like a waste really, given how much easier shooting there would be than shooting in Dubrovnik again.

I don't think different location is really a problem. In Star Wars they built some sets that looked like those in origial trilogy, even 40 years later.
They can just build Red Keep in some other studio.

They delayed it slightly, I guess. But nice to get something official.

The Matt Smith casting could be disaster, or he could be Pedro Pascale good and prove the haters wrong. I'm meh on everyone else, but if they bring it, they bring it. What does everyone think about the Danny Sapani as Corlys Velaryon, there was some major racism on reddit and I had to get out of there.

What does everyone think about the Danny Sapani as Corlys Velaryon, there was some major racism on reddit and I had to get out of there. It could be they're just switching the history of House Velaryon because it wasn't established in GoT, which imo would work fine. Or maybe the Velaryons will be black with silver hair which would look pretty cool if done right. Either way the wig budget on this show will be massive. As for the casting discontent generally, I remember some of the reactions to the s1 casting and some of what I'm hearing sounds like deja vu. Not that these will all automatically pan out, who knows but assuming Nina Gold is still picking the actors, her track record is a strong one. I've heard very good things about Olivia Cooke though.

Making the Velaryons black is fraught with danger and opportunity. One thing I've been thinking about is, it could close the door on Rhaenyra's sons obviously being Strong's since they looked nothing like Rhaenyra and Laenor. I never understood why Corlys and Rhaeyns supported Rhaenyra, those kids were very obviously not their grandchildren. I think Rhaenys died in the war right? I may be forgetting their motivations.

The Matt Smith casting could be disaster, or he could be Pedro Pascale good and prove the haters wrong I think it will be Pedro/Nikolaj situation. Doubly so for Emma D'Arcy, I'm guessing. Rhaenyra seems like the part they would've held the widest range of auditions for and considered unknowns as well as bigger names before choosing her, so she must've proved quite impressive throughout that process. She's getting flak now for not being an Emilia 2.0 (enough so that she's made her twitter private since yesterday) but I think that'll subside when the show airs. I just feel bad for her in the meantime. Matt Smith on the other hand has, I can only imagine, long since learned to cope with the weirdness of fandoms. Anytime a new Dr. Who is announced batshittery ensues. So this period of adjustment will be a walk in the park for him.
