A photo showing the Game Of Thrones prequel cast together has circulated online, shortly after filming wrapped on the pilot episode.
The new spin-off series, provisionally titled Bloodmoon, takes place thousands of years before events in Game Of Thrones – with leaked shots from filming in Belfast and Italy providing our only glimpse at what to expect.
Cast members Sheila Atim, Georgie Henley, and Marquis Rodriguez have since been spotted hanging out together in a shot from behind-the-scenes.
The photo doesn’t feature some of the show’s stars, with Naomi Watts, John Simm, Miranda Richardson, John Heffernan, and Jamie Campbell Bower all set to star.

It’s unclear if Bloodmoon will even materialise into a real show at this point, with the pilot designed to test whether it deserves a full series run.
Creator George RR Martin spilled some details about how it connects to Game Of Thrones, confirming House Lannister won’t be featured but you can expect some Starks loitering about.
Bloodmoon is penned by screenwriter Jane Goldman and George RR Martin, with an official synopsis reading: ‘Taking place thousands of years before the events of Game Of Thrones, the series chronicles the world’s descent from the golden Age Of Heroes into its darkest hour.
‘And only one thing is for sure: from the horrifying secrets of Westero’s history to the true origin of the White Walkers, the mysteries of the East to the Starks of legend… it’s not the story we think we know.’
The Game Of Thrones prequel is scheduled to be released in 2020.
