During an interview at Morgan Stanley’s Technology, Media, and Telecom conference, Perrette revealed the updated release date, narrowing down the previously announced “early summer” window. This news was first reported by Variety.
Perrette’s confirmation brings House of the Dragon Season 2 closer to its debut, which was originally predicted by Matt Smith to be around August. Fans have been eagerly awaiting the second season of this Game of Thrones prequel since the conclusion of the first season in 2022.
Continuing the Epic Tale of Fire and Blood
When House of the Dragon Season 2 does premiere, it will continue the story of Fire and Blood, delving into the history of the Taragaryen Kings in the years before Game of Thrones. Based on the events of the book, viewers can expect intense dragon battles, assassins, and the introduction of new characters.
Author George R.R. Martin has already had a sneak peek at the first two episodes of Season 2 and described them as “very dark.” The upcoming season will consist of eight episodes, slightly shorter than the first season’s ten episodes. It is expected to span at least four seasons or more.
Martin expressed his enthusiasm for the upcoming season, stating, “Of course, I am hardly objective when talking about anything based on my own work… but I have to say, I thought both episodes were just great. (And they are not even finished yet). Dark, mind you. Very dark. They may make you cry. (I did not cry myself, but one of my friends did). Powerful, emotional, gut-wrenching, heart-rending. Just the sort of thing I like.”
A Thrilling and Captivating Chapter
Fans of House of the Dragon can look forward to the second season’s premiere in June 2024, as the series promises to deliver another thrilling and captivating chapter in the Game of Thrones universe.
