The Dubrovnik Times is sharing a new handful of photos today, of the Game of Thrones filming that took place last week in the Croatian city. Last Wednesday, Lena Headey, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau and Hafthor Bjornsson arrived on Dubrovnik’s Old Town walls for shooting for one day. Director Jeremy Podeswa and the crew continued without them the next day, with more great photos from the set turning up. The Dubrovnik Times reports there were “two more days of filming in various locations in the historic Old City of Dubrovnik, including the stone steps of the Dominican Monastery, interestingly just a few hundred metres away from the new Robin Hood set.”
The Times‘ camera captured images of extras on the set on the city walls, including men dressed as Gold Cloaks (the City Watch of King’s Landing) and another man costumed as one of Cersei’s Queensguard, in that striking new armor!
There are more images at the source, so visit The Dubrovnik Times to check those out.
We can expect to see things slow down quite a bit from now until the new year. Filming has wrapped in Croatia and Spain, and shooting with Kit Harington and other cast members will finish up for the holidays in Northern Ireland this week. Even the khaleesi herself, Emilia Clarke, finally took a break:
We can expect to see shooting resume in 2017 in Belfast. Iceland is still a question mark, as we’ve had no info on the country since November. Game of Thrones is set to film until February, with a yet-to-be-announced season 7 premiere date next summer.
Hodor! (Finally, my first Hodor. It feels so good)
Ah, good old Dubrovnik!
So what’s up with the red capes the guys are wearing? Are they just coverings so they won’t get their costumes dirty? And then there’s the dude with a white one thrown over his front. Are we sure these are supposed to be Gold Cloaks? Or maybe just actors from the Robin Hood production drooling over a better show? 😀
The new Queensguard armor is gorgeous. A very quality upgrade.
Stacy,
I disagree. It looks like stage armor, very similar with the style in that movie “First knight” with Sean Connery and Richard Gere, good movie but the costumes drive me nuts!
I like the old Kingsguard armor much better, all versions…
Emilia’s IG always makes me smile 🙂
So so bright and warm and cheery
I’m just really sad we won’t get to see Jamie in that gorgeous new Queensguard armour.
Though perhaps it’s for the best – could be too hot to handle.
Queensguard ? with kraken sign On black armor (Iron king!!!!?
Where do you see a Kraken symbol?
Question: how do we know that every image of “City Watch” taken out of context is for King’s Landing? Oldtown has its own City Watch in the books. Or would they look different? (i.e. Lannisport also has a City Watch, but they have red cloaks, hence they’re called “the Red Cloaks”).
steve,
It’s not a kraken, it’s Cersei’s mothereffing new crown.
Wow Kit has been working non stop.
I’m curious to see if any other KL landmarks will make it on the show besides the Dragon Pit and Red Keep (now that the Sept of Baelor is no more 😛 ).
The Dragon Demands,
In the books.
Emilia’s IG is the BEST!!!
Love Emilia’s IG, she always seems so happy that you can’t help but smile.
Does the new queensguard armour have cersei’s crown shape on the front, in that first photo? Also will the mountain support the same black armour because that’ll be awesome
(This is my first post, After years of exploring this site)
Would be awesome to see the Mountain supporting the same black armor, with i assume has Cersei’s crown on the front.
(First post to the wall, after years snooping/exploring)
Name went a little funny there, Emilia seems to in a beautiful place to relax
Hi MC Gendry. Welcome to the commenter community. I think The Mountain will wear team Cersei attire. He wore proper Kingsguard garb during season six.
Kit’s still filming (plus Alfie). Seems like he’s the busiest again

And Alfie and Gemma:

Don’t know if she’s still there but Maisie was in Belfast https://www.instagram.com/p/BOM9YqjhgDt/
Fienix,
the red capes are probably to keep from getting bird poop on the outfits.
Thanks for that, Team Cersei is going to look ferocious next year then.
Gendry “Stop! Hammertime!”,
Hey,
Gotta lose the punctuation from your user name or you’re going to get stuck in moderation filter every time. 🙂
Meh,
What would Maisie be filming in Belfast right now?
We know that Jeremy Podeswa is in Dubrovnik. Any director sightings?
keltia,
Not sure my spoiler brackets worked properly. Fortunately, if they didn’t, what was said was not the real spoiler from Lads. (Whew!)
Black and Silver Embroidered armour looks fantastic
Wonder if the Mountain will get new armour as well (am assuming he is LC of Cersei QG?
If he does, obviously he would look great but I personally hope they’ll change his helmet to S1 Tourney edition or the books SRS edition
Seems they like to show his zombie eyes though for visual effect though so that will probably impact the style they adopt
Cheers, Was getting to hard to type anyway 🙂
Maybe you can opt for MC Gendry, that way, the “Stop. Hammertime”-joke is implied.. 😉
And wow.. Kit, Alfie and Gemma are still going at it? Is Yara going to come out alive???
Ser Oromis Locke,
I´d say yes.
Stacy,
Why would he? Serving Cersei after what she did?
What splendid looking armour! Cersei always sends messages with her gowns, even alert to red v gold at times. But her new queensguard suits of armour are so gorgeous–and discussing them is much less boring than discussing red wigs 🙂
This is one advantage of the visual medium: pictures paint 1000 words, and moving pictures paint 1000s of words. Written descriptions of these sorts of things would take long paragraphs that add little to the story: or they cut to the point by describing the reaction people have to these sorts of things rather than describe the things themselves.
Meh,
With creative second guessing, it could hint at something wonderful. Since now is the winter of our discontent, one can only hope.
keltia,
Take the word “leak” out of your First spioler bracket and it should work fine.
So I’m very confused on the battles that will be taking place this season. Can someone kindly tell me in a spoiler tag if the Tyrells will have a battle scene against the Lannisters?
Also what do we know about Casterly Rock?
It’s embarrassing, but I don’t know how to hide a spoiler. I try to avoid them, but it would be nice to know how. Suggestions anyone? Ta for your help,
King Podrick,
Stargaryen,
Thanks. It appears that a Mod made that correction to my “spoiler.”
Mel,
Thank you Mel
Mel,
