House of the Dragon

HBO's Game Of Thrones prequel (and so many blonde wigs) are coming.

A character says, “Knives will come out,” and the next shot is of Prince Daemon (Matt Smith) being threatened with a knife. A voiceover reminds us that “your family has dragons” over footage of a scorched field. A different character proclaims, “War is afoot” over a shot of two factions squaring off to battle. Reminiscent of the thematically appropriate instrumental covers he became known for in his second HBO outing, this trailer features Djawadi’s orchestra-heavy cover of the Velvet Underground’s “Venus In Furs.” It’s a bit of an obvious choice, as the mashup literally features beautiful women wearing furs. The budget is enormous (seriously, the dragons looks amazing). And the battles are as muddy as ever. While we all know that no one has a better story than Bran the Broken (sigh), it is actually quite nice to revisit this world with a completely new cast of characters that a certain showrunning duo won’t have a chance to get their grubby hands on.

Netflix is holding a virtual fan convention, Tudum, also in September. Marvel’s Hall H panel, meanwhile, will likely include new information on plans for the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s “Phase Four” films.

If you weren't already excited for Game of Thrones prequel House of the Dragon, this new trailer will certainly make you feel that way.

But there is still plenty of scheming and manoeuvring around who will rule on display in the House of the Dragon trailer. Through war, by the looks of it.

That means you can catch up or re-watch in readiness for House of the Dragon. What does the new House of the Dragon trailer show? New users to Foxtel Now get a 10-day free trial.

Ser Harrold is tasked with an important role: to protect Princess Rhaenyra, the chosen heir by King Viserys I. However, this is Westeros, and women can't rule.

Ser Harrold is going to be extremely important in the protection of his princess. At least, that’s the opinion of a lot of people. Their duty is to protect the king, and McTavish’s Ser Harrold Westerling takes his vow extremely seriously.

Rhaenyra is her own person who was born into this time of extreme power, wealth, and decadence whereas Daenerys was born a pauper because this dynasty fell—largely as a result of events in this story.” “It is very much a story about a patriarchy told through the point-of-view of two women.” This begins with the day Viserys names his firstborn daughter Rhaenyra (Milly Alcock in her youth, Emma D’Arcy later) as his heir, even as he’s urged to take a second wife in hopes of producing a son. [Daemon] is similarly a bit of a rogue prince trying to find his footing and place in this world.” Whereas Game of Thrones began in the 17th uneasy year of Robert Baratheon’s reign, House of the Dragon picks up 105 years after Aegon Targaryen I conquered Westeros and founded King’s Landing. It is there we’ll be introduced to a host of Targaryens of various political ambitions and a whole palace of new courtiers. “The trick with this story is it’s multi-generational,” Condal says. He’s the second fiddle, in that case to the Queen of England, his own wife, and is a bit adrift. Yet there’s an undeniable excitement in Condal’s voice while discussing the new show; he’s eager for fans to discover a different era of Westeros, one set about 200 years before the events of Game of Thrones. “This is just a very decadent time,” Condal says. He first read the earliest books after the third novel A Storm of Swords was published in 2000, discovering the saga while fresh out of college. The two became acquainted in 2012, and Martin seemed eager to get Condal into Westeros ever since. “I thought we were just getting together socially,” Condal recalls in 2022, “but he said, ‘I need you to write a pilot for me.

"I heard the sound of thundering hooves, splintering shields, and ringing swords."

And I placed my heir upon the Iron Throne, and all the dragons roared as one." But this is Westeros, so there are others scheming for the Iron Throne, most notably Ser Otto Hightower, Hand of the King—whose daughter Alicent becomes the king's second wife and wants her son Aegon to be the heir—and Prince Daemon Targaryen, the king's younger brother. But it's the dragons, always a fan favorite, who dominate the new trailer. The final two sections of Fire and Blood deal with the fallout of that crisis and serve as the primary source material for House of the Dragon. Miguel Sapochnik—who filmed some of the most eye-popping, complicated battles on Game of Thrones—serves as co-showrunner with series co-creators Martin and Ryan J. Condal. Sapochnik directed the pilot and several other episodes. Those events culminated in a civil war and the extinction of the dragons—at least until Daenerys Targaryen came along two centuries later.

While there are other Westeros-related series in development, “House of the Dragon” is the only confirmed “Game of Thrones” spinoff show — so far. The war pits Westeros’ great houses — including the Lannisters and Starks — against each other, resulting in the death of House Targaryen’s most powerful dragons. Based on George R.R. Martin’s book “Fire & Blood,” “House of the Dragon” will follow the Dance of the Dragons, the Targaryen civil war between siblings Aegon II and Rhaenyra, who fought for the throne after the death of their father.
