Fans of “Game of Thrones” have a reason to rejoice as HBO released a thrilling new trailer for the second season of “House of the Dragon” on YouTube this Tuesday. The 140-second preview showcases Daemon Targaryen, portrayed by Matt Smith, entering the iconic Red Keep’s throne room, his gaze fixed on the formidable Iron Throne.
The trailer teases intense dragon action, featuring Emma D’Arcy’s Rhaenyra with her dragon Syrax, and Tom Glynn-Carney as Aegon on Sunfyre. Amidst the rising tension and soaring dragons, Rhaenyra’s foreboding words echo, “The war is coming and neither of us will win,” as a dragon fiercely breathes fire in the background.
Scheduled to premiere on June 17 on HBO and HBO GO, the eight-episode second season continues the saga of the Targaryen civil war, set 172 years before the events of “Game of Thrones.” The series, based on George R.R. Martin’s “Fire and Blood,” explores the zenith of Targaryen power and the complex dynamics within their reign.
