After curious Cáceres locals provided us with two straight days of spoiler-filled leaks, yesterday’s production became an impenetrable bunker. Thankfully, today’s shoot has resulted in a few new photos at the Grand Sept filming location, as well as the arrival of Emma D’Arcy (Rhaenyra Targaryen) and showrunner Ryan Condal. Plaza de San Jorge sits just below San Francisco Javier church, which was digitally replaced by the Grand Sept in season one, as seen in the frame below, captured from the ninth episode, “The Green Council”.

With filming for House of the Dragon season two over in Trujillo, production moved to Cáceres today for the first day of six, starting with the tragic scene we reported on a few days ago, involving Olivia Cooke and Phia Saban as Queen Mother Alicent Hightower and her daughter, Queen Helaena Targaryen.
