House of the Dragon Gets Renewed For Season 2

House of the Dragon: Season 2 Is Already In The Works At HBO

Recent reports suggests that Season 2 of HBO's highly anticipated fantasy show, House of the Dragon, is already in development

New report from Redanian Intelligence claims that the second season of 'House of the Dragon' is already in the works, which means that season 2 has already been greenlit by HBO. Although, officially, HBO has not yet confirmed the news.

While the first season has yet to be released, a second season renewal may not come as a complete surprise to the fans that are eagerly waiting for this Game of Thrones prequel. HBO programming chief Casey Bloys previously stated:

Typically speaking, I like to take an approach where we will talk about what a second season might look like and talk about scripts. But we tend to like to see how a show performs. That said, if I were betting, I'd say there’s a pretty good shot that House of the Dragon will get a season 2. But we tend to like things to air and give it some time. That said, on most shows, we’ll do preparation and put ourselves in a good position to move forward.

Recently, House of the Dragon released a full trailer that debuted the show's dragons and hinted at the infighting and scheming happening within House Targaryen, threatening to tear the dynasty apart. It also gave the fans a glimpse at the unique world of ancient Westeros, whose landscapes and kingdoms appear somewhat different than they did in Game of Thrones.

House of the Dragon's star cast includes:

Paddy Considine as King Viserys

Emma D'Arcy as Princess Rhaenyra

Matt Smith as Prince Daemon Targaryen

Rhys Ifans as Otto Hightower

Olivia Cooke as Otto's daughter

Steve Toussaint as Lord Corlys Velaryon

Eve Best as Princess Rhaenys Velaryon

Sonoya Mizuno as Mysaria

Fabien Frankel as Ser Criston Cole
