Home Improvement: The Wall Edition
The night is dark and full of comic con’s with very little information of substance while writers, cast and crew avoid questions regarding the future of the best hair in Westeros.
Welcome to the off-season.
On that happy note and before casting and filming news gets hot and heavy, let’s kill some characters time, shall we?

More cast interviews from Comic-Con 2015
With the start of filming for Game of Thrones season 6 fast approaching, Making Game of Thrones has published a short interview feature in the post-San Diego Comic-Con hype.
After the panel discussion at Comic-Con, the cast members opened up to MGoT about envying other actors/actresses their scenes, and gave some small teases about season 6. Although some had not read the scripts yet, others gave away some fruity details.
Conleth Hill kept it short and sweet, describing his season 6 material as simply “amazing”. He also mentioned that as much as he enjoys his own scenes, he also loves watching everyone else:
[Updated!] Game of Thrones season 6 filming at Magheramorne Quarry soon?
According to one of our sources, filming is (or soon will be) underway for Game of Thrones season 6 at Tollymore Forest Park in Co. Down, Northern Ireland.
We already knew that filming was expected to begin for the upcoming season around mid-July, so this news would seem to fit in with that report.

Game of Thrones SDCC 2015 panel hosted by Seth Meyers UPDATED with FULL PANEL
Game of Thrones kicks off its San Diego Comic Con panel by showing just how culturally influential our favorite show is with respect to other shows currently on air. The cast was pretty tight lipped about Season 6 as it’s all very under wraps before filming begins late July. However, it’s still rather clear the cast and crew are very close with one another and even took the time to do a Q&A with the audience.
