'House of the Dragon' Defies Strike, Continues Filming in UK

TL;DR Summary
Filming for season two of House of the Dragon, the Game of Thrones prequel, will continue in the U.K. despite the ongoing SAG-AFTRA actors strike. The main cast members of the show are under contracts with Equity, a local labor union, which has stated that the strike is not lawful under U.K. legislation. Actors joining the strike in the U.K. risk being dismissed or sued for breach of contract, and Equity itself could face legal consequences if it encourages members to join the strike.
