House of the Dragon Season 2: Emma D'Arcy, Olivia Cooke's Game of Thrones Prequel to Continue Filming Despite the Ongoing Actors' Strike - Here's Why
House of the Dragon is one show that is continuing to film during the ongoing actors' strike as its primarily UK cast isn't governed by SAG-AFTRA.
Just recently, the Screen Actors Guild (SAG-AFTRA) decided to go on a strike, meaning no acting talent can take part in any production and promotion, and despite that a few projects still are continuing to film. One of them being House of the Dragon which is deep into filming its season two. Despite the actors' strike going on right now, House of the Dragon can continue to have its actor be on set as majority of its cast is from UK and is governed by the local unions, rather than SAG-AFTRA themselves.
