HBO confirms Game of Thrones prequel House of the Dragon


HBO has confirmed a Game of Thrones prequel series titled House of the Dragon, which will centre around House Targaryen. House of the Dragon is based on George R.R. Martin’s 2018 book, Fire and Blood, a companion to the main A Song of Ice and Fire series, which inspired Game of Thrones. HBO placed a 10-episode, straight-to-series order for the show, which will be set 300 years before the events of Game of Thrones and will tell the story of the House Targaryen, the ruling house into which Emilia Clarke’s GOT character Daenerys Targaryen was eventually born. HBO’s decision to greenlight House of the Dragon notably came just hours after the network cancelled a separate in-the-works Game of Thrones prequel starring Naomi Watts.
