HOUSE OF THE DRAGON Season 2 Posters Drop Before Tomorrow's Trailer

Mar 20, 2024 5:13 PM

The highly anticipated Season 2 of "House of the Dragon," the prequel to "Game of Thrones," is heightening excitement with the release of new character posters. These images build up the tension, suggesting that viewers must pick a side between Team Black and Team Green as the series gears up for a battle in its second season. In preparation for the fresh content, a first look at the upcoming season will be provided by a trailer scheduled for release on March 21. The new season is expected to land on HBO Max in June, with a shorter episode run of eight episodes compared to the first season's ten. George R.R. Martin's "Fire and Blood" serves as the storyline's backbone, with the Dance of the Dragons at the crux of the plot. Although this season has fewer episodes, Martin and HBO executives predict the series would need at least four seasons to fully cover the material from the book.

When will House of the Dragon Season 2 premiere?

"House of the Dragon" Season 2 is set to premiere on HBO Max in June.

"House of the Dragon" is rooted in George R.R. Martin's extensive history of the Targaryen family in his novel "Fire and Blood," set about 200 years before the events of "Game of Thrones." The series delves into the intricacies of the Targaryen civil war, known as the Dance of the Dragons, a pivotal event in Westerosi history. With a successful first season, the show has already established a deep lore and complex characters, leaving audiences eagerly awaiting the continuation of this epic saga. The involvement of George R.R. Martin in the show's development, as well as HBO's endorsement, assures fans that the Targaryen story will be told with the depth it deserves, solidifying "House of the Dragon" as a mainstay in the lineup of premium fantasy television.
