It’s far too early to make decisions. From March to June 2023, HBO will return to Cáceres, Spain, to film scenes for season 2 of King’s Landing, according to a report in the Spanish newspaper Hoy.

According to the source, the best estimate, for now, is summer 2024. Unconfirmed is the precise date. The exact date is still unconfirmed.
