New trailer, new characters, new dragons

Certainly writes George RR Martin still working on the next book by game of Thrones. But because it is in the stars when it will appear and fans of the fantasy universe still have to digest the last season of the series, they prefer to devote themselves to other things. House of the Dragon for example, the prequel series to GoT, which will be released on August 22nd.

We got a first glimpse of it in a trailer at the beginning of October last year, but since then it has been rather quiet around the much-anticipated series. After all: According to Martin, filming should have been completed by February and because you seem to be sailing on course with it, the next trailer was released today.

The Game of Iron Throne continues

Of course, anyone who knows Game of Thrones knows that the Iron Throne, which gave it its name, also played an important role in the events leading up to the globally successful hit series. That’s why he gets in that too new trailer from House of the Dragon makes an appearance and again numerous competitions seem to gather around him.

In the trailer we once again meet the new characters who will vie with each other for the rulership of Estos and Westeros in House of the Dragon. Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen (Emma D’Arcy) and Prince Daemon Targaryen (Matt Smith) also get to strut through the camera while the seafarer Corlys Velaryon utters some meaningful words. The real stars of the trailer are of course the impressive ones dragon.

What is House of the Dragon about?

As already mentioned, House of the Dragon is a prequels, so the series takes place before the events of Game of Thrones. The clock was turned back a full 200 years, so that the eponymous House Targaryen is actually still intact and not just embodied by a single Daenerys.
