They're not going to the Iron Isles next season, are they?

So, I've finally gotten through Feast, and started Dance. I really really am praying they're adding the dinner scene between Tyrion and Illyrio in the show. I want those mushrooms.

Temper your hype, guys. Ms. Maguire may just be an extra who happens to look a bit like Maisie (although it would be a huge coincidence).

A similar thing happened last year; a wildling girl was cast, and from her looks, many people assumed her to be Dalla, Val, or an amalgamation of the two. However, she just turned out to be the girl Jon saves from the fookin' legend of Gin Alley.

Keep in mind Ramsay was initially just "boy" in the casting documents. And does anyone know if the Winterfell scenes have started filming yet? The possible late filming is my last hope for getting Lord Manderly this season. :(

So we'll be getting both NOT Aryra aka NO ONE. And Fake Aryra this season?

I never actually understood the whole Fake Arya business. Obviously it was never to fool the reader since we know the real one is in Braavos. So it seems weird to focus on a random victim of Ramsay's sadism. Especially since people already saw that stuff with Theon being turned into Reek in the show.

Do they do anything with her?

It's mostly for Theon to have something to do, but they can do that without her in the show.

Generally I'm pretty skeptical of these things, but damn that is a striking resemblance. And she's old enough that they could do some of the more fucked up aspects of that plot if they really wanted. Is there any info on how many episodes she's in? That would be a big hint if it's more than 2 or so. It would also answer what they're going to do with the Boltons for a full season while waiting for the Stannis/Wall plot to catch up to them, since that's sort of a mystery at this point.

Iksenpets, I suspect I've quoted your avatar before so I won't here but damn. Takes one to know one, huh?

I picked this avatar so long ago and never really think about it, so I always get a good chuckle whenever I accidentally walk myself into situations that call for an avatar quote.

Yeah, I know, but my point still stands.

Well, McElhatton and Allen were in Belfast weeks ago (probably for some studio scenes/costume fitting). Apart from that, there's been nothing Winterfell-related so far to my knowledge.

Wasn't there something a while back about the woman who plays Walda filming in October? That's such an obscure thing I have no idea where I heard it so it could be totally wrong. But I would think that if they're building to battles in the snow and all that they need to start shifting their Northern filming to later in the year to get a colder climate showing.

That's true, and her CV does note that she's up for professional nude scenes.

And nope, there's nothing on directors or episodes yet.

Really? I must have missed that!

Edit: Oh, now that I think of it... I might vaguely recall something like that. Or maybe we're both crazy.

Edit 2: Here it is. It just says that she's filming "this autumn".

I'm assuming they'd make her some random Winterfell servant who went south with Ned? There's no way they'd bother explaining Jeyne at this point.

They may not even bother with that much story. She could just be one of the squatters at Winterfell when they get there and Bolton catches the resemblance and launches the fake Arya scheme.

Yep. I'd also guess that the whole Littlefinger "training" aspect of it won't be included.

I'm not getting my hopes for her. After the whole Arriane and possible Aegon thing being reworked, I'm just going to wait.

It's 100% not from filming in Spain, which Dinklage hasn't begun yet. It's most likely from a photoshoot.

Set design looks like it might be a good indication for the look they're targeting for Volantis, which is kind of cool. And Dinklage is pulling off the depressed drunk look well, even if it's just a promotional shoot.

It could be from somewhere in Northern Ireland either, just not from Spain, as the original poster of the image on Twitter claimed..
