Weiss, producer Bryan Cogman and Dave Hill. Author George R.R. Martin, who had written one episode for each of the first four seasons, did not write an episode for the sixth season, as he was working to finish writing the sixth A Song of Ice and Fire novel, The Winds of Winter. The directing staff for the sixth season was Jeremy Podeswa ( episodes 1 and 2 ), Daniel Sackheim ( episodes 3 and 4 ), Jack Bender ( episodes 5 and 6 ), Mark Mylod ( episodes 7 and 8 ), and Miguel Sapochnik ( episodes 9 and 10 ). Sackheim and Bender were first - time Game of Thrones directors, with the rest each having directed two episodes in the previous season. Writing With the end of the fifth season, the content of the show has reached the plot of the latest novel in Martin 's A Song of Ice and Fire series, A Dance with Dragons. Season 6 director Jeremy Podeswa said in August 2015 : `` Right now in season six, what we 're shooting currently is n't based on anything in the book. It 's fully based on discussions the writers have had with George Martin, because the series has now surpassed the books in terms of what 's available. '' Actress Natalie Dormer, who plays Margaery Tyrell, later added that the show 's writers `` know where it 's got to go and what ( George Martin ) 's intentions for the characters are. But they are just filling in the gaps. '' The season premiere starts off right where the fifth season ended. A plot from The Winds of Winter regarding a traveling theater troupe located in Braavos that stages a play called `` The Bloody Hand '', about the events that have taken place in King 's Landing since the beginning of the series, is included in the sixth season. Filming The Castle of Zafra in Guadalajara, Spain is among the filming locations. Filming for season six began in July 2015, and ended on December 17, 2015.
