The second season of ‘The House of the Dragon’ has been confirmed, and this is all we know.
Are you already looking forward to the second season of ‘The House of the Dragon’? It does not surprise us: the first has been a resounding success of HBO. The pilot episode of the spin-off of ‘Game of Thrones’ attracted more than 10 million viewers when it premiered on the platform, and since then its audience and its impact have only grown, becoming one of the best series HBO in 2022, in addition to one of the best series of 2022.
The announcement of season 2 of the series based on the novels by George RR Martin was immediateand a few weeks ago HBO confirmed the order of a new batch of episodes to a team that will have the loss of one of its showrunners, Miguel Sapochnik, author of several of the best chapters of ‘Game of Thrones’ (‘The Battle of the Bastards’, ‘The Long Night’). Sapochnik will continue to be credited as executive producer, but it will be his partner Ryan Condal who will remain as showrunner In solitary. Sapochnik has also agreed with HBO to develop new projects. And let’s not forget that Jon Snow’s spin-off of ‘Game of Thrones’ is on the horizon. Alan Taylor, also a Game of Thrones director (he directed the first season finale, among others), will join his spin-off as director and executive producer for the second season.
Now we talk about everything we know about season 2 of ‘The house of the dragon’. When will the release date be? Can we count it among the most anticipated series of 2023 or the most anticipated HBO series of 2023? How will the story continue after the end aired on October 17? Who will join the cast? This is all we know so far.
‘The Dragon House’, season 2: Filming
As anticipated the Hoy newspaper of Extremadura, the production team of ‘La Casa del Dragón’ will return to Cáceres next spring to start filming the second season of the series. The Extremaduran city, characterized as King’s Landing in the ‘Game of Thrones’ universe, will once again host the program’s technicians and interpreters between March and June 2023, although the filming itself is only planned for a few weeks in April and May.
This confirms Spain as the main stage of ‘The House of the Dragon’ one more time. In the first season of ‘La Casa del Dragón’ we were able to see locations such as Cáceres itself, the Plaza Mayor in Trujillo, the Castle of La Calahorra in Granada and the Santa Clotilde Gardens in Lloret de Mar. “Spain has a great legacy that goes back to the original series, to ‘Game of Thrones’, and we wanted to honor that. Spain is a wonderful place to shoot,” says co-creator and screenwriter Ryan Condal.
‘The House of the Dragon’, season 2: Release date
The first season took 10 months to complete filming, not counting post-production and the addition of special effects. If season 2 also requires almost a year of filming and another of VFX work, we would be talking about a possible return for the summer / fall of 2024.
‘The House of the Dragon’, season 2: Cast
Who will return in season 2 of ‘The House of the Dragon? Well, it’s still too early to tell, because in the Game of Thrones universe, no matter how important the character is, they can die at any time.
If we trust that the main characters are safe and that the series will continue the events of Martin’s novels, we can conjecture that Emma D’Arcy (Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen), Olivia Cooke (Alicent Hightower), Matt Smith (Prince Daemon Targaryen), Fabien Frankel (Ser Criston Cole), and Eve Best (Rhaenys Targaryen) will be back in Season 2.. We are more pessimistic about King Viserys (Paddy Considine) as we don’t think he will survive the first season.
‘The House of the Dragon’, season 2: Synopsis
What will season 2 of ‘The House of the Dragon’ be about? Although at first it seemed that the Dragon Dancethe Targaryen civil war for the Iron Throne after the death of King Viserys, was going to be the center of the first season, everything seems to indicate that the bulk of the war will take place in the second.
The supporters of Rhaenyra as heiress of the Seven Kingdoms (the black ones) and the followers of Alicent and her first-born Aegon Targaryen (the green ones) will have a fierce battle for years in which the dragons of ‘The House of the Dragon’ will be very important protagonists .
