composed of eight episodes since creator Ryan J. Condal wants each chapter to have a good opening and ending, rather than stretch out the plot to cater to a 10-episode limit.
The Game of Thrones season 8, hinting at a response that's fuelled by vengeance.
While the conflict has certainly become personal now, with no option of turning back, the House of the Dragon season 2 teaser trailer still offers some hope of peaceful reconciliation. “There is no war so hateful to the gods as a war between kin, and no war so bloody as a war between dragons,” the once-rightful heir Rhaenys Targaryen (Eve Best) tries to change Rhaenyra's plans as frightening visuals of the war play out, with countless soldiers being slain and roasted to death by the dragons. Meanwhile, Queen Alicent is too tired to deal with the repercussions of what she started but is driven by the result, which would place her family as rulers for oncoming generations. The trailer ends with a clip of Rhaenyra riding atop her dragon Syrax and entering the battlefield to everyone's amazement.
Much of the original cast returns in the second season, including HBO Max. Series creator Condal will be working closely with GRRM and director Alan Taylor for future seasons of the show.
House of the Dragon season 2 will premiere in the American Summer of 2024 on Max, wherever available.
