Mark your calendar as HBO has just released two “dueling” trailers for season 2 of House of the Dragon. It’s up to you whom do you choose- Rhaenyra’s black faction or Alicent’s green team?
‘Dueling Trailers’ for House of the Dragon Season 2 Released
HBO has now unveiled two trailers for the eight-episode second season of House of the Dragon which will debut on Sunday, June 16 on HBO and will be available to stream on Max.
The new trailers can be viewed below.
Showrunner Ryan Condal earlier told Deadline:
“I’m excited to pick up where we left off. We did the hard, complex work of setting up this entirely new dynasty and family and all the players in Season 1 and took the time to do all the character work so you understood where everybody fell along the line of are they on Alicent’s side of the equation, Aegon’s side or are they on Rhaenyra’s side and Daemon’s side.“
He further spoke about the direction of Season 2:
“Whereas the original series is like this big epic sweeping fantasy, about light and darkness, ice and fire, this series is very much about a house tearing itself apart from within. Now that all those pieces have been set on the board, I’m really excited to tell the next chapter, to see what happens now that Viserys is gone and is no longer keeping a lid on things.”
The House of the Dragon Season 2 cast includes Matt Smith, Olivia Cooke, Emma D’Arcy, Eve Best, Steve Toussaint, Fabien Frankel, Ewan Mitchell, Tom Glynn-Carney, Sonoya Mizuno, and Rhys Ifans. The additional returning cast includes Harry Collett, Bethany Antonia, Phoebe Campbell, Phia Saban, Jefferson Hall, and Matthew Needham.
New cast members for the second season include Abubakar Salim as Alyn of Hull, Gayle Rankin as Alys Rivers, Freddie Fox as Ser Gwayne Hightower, Simon Russell Beale as Ser Simon Strong, and Clinton Liberty as Addam of Hull.
Fans Show Their Excitement
