By HBO has released the first posters for the highly anticipated second season of its “House of the Dragon” series. The posters show Olivia Cooke’s Alicent Hightower and Emma D’Arcy’s Rhaenyra Targaryen.
In addition, HBO has confirmed that fans can expect the first look at the second season will arrive online tomorrow (Saturday December 2nd).
The series was one of the few shows that was able to continue in production throughout both strikes as the scripts were all done before the writer’s strike began, while much of its cast were part of Actors Equity and not SAG-AFTRA.
Shooting on the new season took place in England, Spain, & Wales and clocks in at a shorter eight-episode run with no time jumps this time. A third season has reportedly already been mapped.
Based on George R.R. Martin’s Fire & Blood, House of the Dragon chronicles the rise and the downfall of the Targaryens – the only family of dragonlords to survive the Doom of Valyria. Events unfold three centuries prior to “Game of Thrones”.
The series stars Matt Smith, Olivia Cooke, Emma D’Arcy, Rhys Ifans, Steve Toussaint, Eve Best, Sonoya Mizuno, Graham McTavish, Jefferson Hall, David Horovitch, Matthew Needham, Bill Patterson, Gavin Spokes, Wil Johnson, John Macmillan, Savannah Steyn, and Theo Nate.
Gayle Rankin, Russell Beale, Freddie Fox, and Abubakar Salim join the cast for the second season.
