The filming of "Game of Thrones" Season 7 is about to begin. While the production has already started its preparation for te new season in Northern Ireland, the stars of the show will also be heading to some new filming locations this time.
"Game of Thrones" crew have been spotted out in Corbet, the village that hosted shooting last fall particularly for the siege of Riverrun storyline. Since filming has not begun officially, it is most likely that the crew has arrived to prepare the required set in the Riverrun courtyard that was featured in the last season.
Also, it is being speculated that "Game of Thrones" Season 7 will feature Dragonpit, a massive old building on a hill in King's Landing that was used to house the dragons of the Targaryens. Later, during the "Dance of the Dragons," a one-armed shepherd led disgruntled townsfolk to the dome to burn it down, leading to the death of five dragons.
The rumor is triggered after it was announced that Spain's Zumaia and Bermeo have been selected as new filming locations. A six day filming schedule plus additional weeks of pre-production has been declared to begin on Oct. 26 in the city of Zumaia, a site which is rumoured to be a great landing point for Westeros, owing to its Storm's End-like cliff face, Baleike reported.
On the other hand, the filming at Bermeo will happen primarily on the shores of San Juan de Gaztelugatxe owing to its unique location. Filming will reportedly involve a technical team of more than 400 people.
Apart from these two cities, the shooting of the hit fantasy series will also happen in ancient Roman ruins of Italica in Santiponce, a site which is highly speculated to become the talked-about dragonpit in the upcoming season.
Apart from new locations, a new casting information have also been uncovered recently. The show is reportedly looking to cast a general, priest, warrior, gate guard, city guard, merchant, lovely lady, young Lord, and lieutenant, Watchers On The Wall reported.
