A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms was in Gran Canaria, an island in Spain, to shoot season two. But his production had to run away from there.
Reason: Heavy amount of rain, causing flooding in the area.
According to WinterIsComing.net, a site that regularly covers updates on the Game of Thrones universe, the historic rainfall enabled the cast and crew in Gran Canaria – who were to capture season two’s drought storyline – to complete shooting.
The report states that season two is set in the Reach empire of Westeros, which was hit by a drought.
Ironically, in a real-world setting, the island was surprisingly hit by some of the worst, wettest conditions in the past 15 years.
According to the outlet, the huge set has been partially submerged in rainwater, making shooting impossible, which was initially planned to run through May 2026.
Due to heavy rain, the crew was relocated to mainland Spain, a frequent filming location for the Game of Thrones universe.
However, affected by the weather storm, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms season two is still set to air in 2027.
The season 2 logline reads, “Ser Duncan the Tall (Dunk) and his squire Egg enter the service of an aging lord during a devastating drought in the Reach. The two become embroiled in a dangerous land dispute, while navigating tense political intrigue and loyalties against the “Red Widow”, Lady Rohan Weber.”
