The highly anticipated prequel to “Game of Thrones,” HBO’s “House of the Dragon,” is finally here, premiering this weekend and we couldn’t be more excited!
Based on George R.R. Martin’s novels “Song of Ice and Fire” and “Fire & Blood,” the ten episode prequel “House of the Dragon,” set 200 years before the events that unfolded in “Game of Thrones,” tells the story of the mighty House Targaryen.
The massive cast includes Olivia Cooke as Alicent Hightower, Emma D’Arcy playing Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen, and Matt Smith starring as Prince Daemon Targaryen. Steve Toussaint appears as Lord Corlys Velaryon, and Eve Best plays Princess Rhaenys Velaryon.
The series is co-created and executive produced by George R.R. Martin, co-showrunner and writers Ryan Condal and Miguel Sapochnik, and Sara Hess.
Tune in for the premiere of what is guaranteed to be an epic series, on August 21, 2022, on HBO.
