Westeros will burn as ‘House of the Dragon’ returns for Season Two
The banners have been called, the blades have been sharpened, and now the Dance of the Dragons is set to begin as we move into a power-hungry new chapter of the must-watch high fantasy series House of the Dragon…. and all Wasteros will burn in pursuit of the Iron Throne.
Check out the EPIC final trailer for the new series of House of the Dragon below:
Here’s the official synopsis:
Following King Aegon II’s coronation and the death of Rhaenyra’s son Lucerys Velaryon, Season 2 follows the ‘Greens’ and the ‘Blacks’ as the ‘Dance of the Dragons’ begins.
As those supporting Alicent and Visery’s son Aegon II attempt to run the realm from King’s Landing – despite their king’s lacking leadership – Rhaenyra’s Black Council debates the value of measured moves versus more impactful responses to Luke’s death from Dragonstone. Although both women cling in some ways to the memory of their friendship, the momentum of the war has begun, and they find themselves at odds with even their closest allies.
Plots to find support within the great house move the action of the series from beyond the walls of the Red Keep to the lands of Westeros, where petty rivalries inform decisions just as much as the threat of death and destruction. The desire to amass larger armies and more strongholds divides our main characters, leading them down separate paths where mysterious visions, bastards with hidden talents, and brutal dragon-on-dragon battles await.
Season Two of House of the Dragon is all about the showdown, and it’s gonna be a hell of an event as the Greens and the Blacks go to War! We see Queen Rhaenyra Targaryen (Emma D’Arcy) going head to head against her former best friend turned rival, Dowager Queen Alicent Hightower (Olivia Cooke). At the same time, the ‘Rogue Prince’ himself, Prince Daemon Targaryen (Matt Smith), is ready to face down his upstart nephew, Prince Aemond Targaryen (Ewan Mitchell), who desires to be the most ruthless warrior in all the land!
House of the Dragon is shaping up to be an aggressive and pulse-pounding watch, and audiences who are seeking a series with a good dose of bite will be well rewarded with this new chapter of this critically acclaimed series.
Fire and blood will rain down upon all when House of the Dragon returns to Neon and SOHO on June 17.
