Are you ready to go back to the events 200 years ago from the original events of GOT series? If you are not, prepare yourself because House of The Dragon, a prequel to GOT, will premiere soon. However, fans are confused about its release date, cast, plot, and other details. And if you are one of these fans, then we got you covered!
In October, we got a teaser in which the key roles were disclosed. It featured Paddy Considine, Emma D’Arcy, Matt Smith, Olivia Cooke, Steve Toussaint, and Sonoya Mizuno. You can stream the teaser on YouTube! But now, as we are nearing the premiere of House of the Dragon, HBO has also revealed original pictures and other exciting plot details.
The upcoming prequel will be based on author George R.R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire book series. The series has been in development for several years. Surprisingly, Martin first pitched this script to HBO, but fate decided something else. The upcoming series will be a Targaryens-centered spinoff. After the show ended in 2019, fans were left hopeless, especially after the last season, but hopefully, House of the Dragons will make up for it!
The pictures that HBO released only targeted a specific event of the Targaryens rich history, giving us hope for this franchise to consist of more than one season. But before you watch the upcoming series, you need to have complete knowledge of the Targaryen Family Tree. In the meantime, here is everything about House of Dragon’s release date, cast, plot details and details from revealed footage. So, let’s get the ball rolling!
House of the Dragon Release Date
