Filming finishes for several cast members, and Telltale reveals game release dates 

season 5 in December and every day now, more cast members are announcing they’ve finished for the year.

This week, the Sand Snakes concluded shooting, with Jessica Henwick and Keisha Castle-Hughes taking to Twitter to announce it:

@GameOfThrones! 5 months, 3 countries and 1 epic introduction to the Sand Snakes.

And that’s a wrap for Obara Sand on @GameOfThrones season 5! 6 months, 3 countries, 200 hours flying & 2 incredible Sand Snake sisters. — Keisha (@kecahumo) November 28, 2014

New-to-Twitter actor Ian Beattie also tweeted that he’s completed season 5 filming.

Not all the performers on the show can rest though. The shooting for other storylines is going strong, with less than desirous call times for the Red Woman.

What…it isn’t available on DOS? So I guess that means that GRRM can’t play it. :/

I can’t wait for Telltale’s Game of Thrones. Tales from the Borderland was sooo damn good

Good, it’s being released for Android relatively soon. That means I won’t have to hide from spoilers for too long.

Filming must have wrapped up for Euron too…

Is it a spoiler that Keisha only mentions two Sand Snakes sisters? Aren’t there 3?

There’s about 8. All of them as boring and non-descript as the three we’ll see in the show!

Is it a spoiler that Keisha only mentions two Sand Snakes sisters? Aren’t there 3?

Yeah, her PLUS two. She isn’t including herself in that total when she’s describing her experience.

Ah, ok. I see. My reading and comprehension apparently suck today. Thanks.

Sand Snakes are gonna rock it in season 5 and TWOW. Can’t wait. No need for any ‘ughs’.

Three remained … and five the sand snake could no longer sense.

This from a journalist who spotted a cab meant for someone GoT-involved outside the airport in Belfast.

Something interesting from reddit. Normally it’s easy to dismiss the my-friend-is-an-extra-and-saw-____ type posts, but this guy was the one who first told us about the Craster’s Keep mutiny ranging and Mormont’s skull business last year, so he’s legit.

How can we know when this was taken? There’s no way of verifying that as far as I can tell.

Here’s a version of the link that works. http://www.reddit.com/r/asoiaf/comments/2npj40/spoilers_all_nights_king_in_season_5/

So… maybe I was right, and the battle to be filmed this year in Iceland-North Irland will be

I think we’ll get both, given that a Baratheon General will be in a David Nutter episode (so 509 or 510) and the Battle of Ice resolves all of the involved storylines. Hardhome will be in episode eight, I think, since there’s Wildling/Wight featured in ep. 508. That way the decision of what to do about the problem north of the Wall and the problem south of it can converge with the Ides of Marsh in 510.

Yeah, seems like we’d have a few possibilities here.

1. Baratheon General is in the episode because Stannis is leading the ranging to Hardhome. This seems unlikely, since what would even be happening in the Winterfell plotline if there’s no tension that Stannis is coming?

2. Stannis has divided his forces, and the general is commanding whatever force went North to Hardhome while Stannis himself marches on Winterfell, or less likely, Deepwood. This seems needlessly complex. Can’t see it happening.

3. That leaves us only with option three, that there are two Northern battles at the season’s climax, one between Stannis and the Boltons (or again, less likely, Greyjoys), and one between Night’s Watch/Wildlings and the Night’s King at Hardhome. That does open up the question of who’s in charge of the ranging. Jon? Does he somehow escape so that the daggers in the dark stuff can happen afterwards? Or maybe Mance or Tormund? That would kind of explain Tormund’s unexpected promotion to main cast, if he’s commanding a major battle this season.

this season. I don’t know what to think about

… but include it in S5 will be very rushed. We will have

Daznak Pit, Walk of Shame, Mercy and Hardhome in the last three episodes!!! I don’t see space for a huge battle after S5E08… but maybe an improved Deepwood Motte

Wow. This is the first “rumor” regarding LS that I can take seriously. That still is definitely not from previous seasons.

Very interesting. Hopefully this means a big Hardhome scene.

The reddit poster didn’t say it was a battle scene though nor did he say that any NW would be there (hopefully he can find more out and post it in the near future because he was very vague). It COULD be a battle of course but it could also be something of a smaller scale, like having a known character (I don’t know who exactly) witnessing some terrifying shit from a ship.

I think the battle we know we’re getting is more likely the Battle of Ice, which could fit just fine into 509 if the episode focuses on just a few storylines (as 309 did for example) or in 510 if it’s an extended episode (like 310 or 410 were).

Looks like photoshop to me, the background is very bright while Michelle looks like she’s been cropped from another scene… I hope it’s legit though.

edit: Or it is behind the scenes footage from this other movie of Michelle’s. Either way, not related to GoT.

He doesn’t talk about Wildlings dying in Hardhome, then being resurrected by White Walkers as Wights; he talks about WW dying there, who then get resurrected by the Night’s King (or do I misread something?)

Maybe he’s wrong and misunderstand his friend… or it’s a spoiler about the WWs’ and Night’s King’s powers…

There’s a good chance his friend didn’t know the mythology as well as him (despite actually featuring in the scene). This poster seems to have legit sources but he does get some things wrong, I remember he called Mormont “Morning” in his post last year.

Thought so. When something’s posted on tinypic and it isn’t sourced at all, chances are its bullshit.

Good on you for finding where the pic’s from. I’d thought maybe it was of an interview from a previous season of GoT but I guess it was from that Ironclad sequel she did.
