House of the Dragon has released not one but two trailers for Season Two, playing on the ‘competing realities’ of the way coming to Westeros.
In the ‘Black’ trailer, we see Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen (Emma D’Arcy) plan to take back her throne and avenge her son’s death, with the help of her uncle / husband Daemon Targaryen (Matt Smith). In the ‘Green’ trailer, we see Alicent Hightower (Olivia Cooke) strategise to keep her son Aegon II Targaryen (Tom Glynn-Carney) on the throne, while wrestling to bring peace back to Westeros. Spoilers: her chances are probably next to nil.
(Side note: haven’t you missed Game of Thrones? Everyone has the name same, and family trees are more like a branch.)
We also finally have a premiere date for House of the Dragon Season Two: June 17, 2024. If you’ve been planning a rewatch, then you probably have time to hit all eight Game of Thrones seasons and HotD Season One before then… provided you have zero other plans, of course.
Ugh, I’m just so fired up for what’s next, despite Season One was a bit ~how’s ya going~ with the lighting choices to the traumatising birthing scene in the series finale.
Here’s everything we know about HoTD Season Two.

What date will House of The Dragon Season Two be released?
According to streaming service BINGE, House of the Dragon‘s second season will premiere in Australia on June 17, 2024.
What is the plot?
The series is based on George R.R. Martin‘s Fire and Blood and is set 200 years before the events of Game of Thrones, telling the story of House Targaryen.
The exact plot for season two is still under wraps, but showrunner Ryan Condal told The Hollywood Reporter that many new characters would be making an appearance.
“We are thrilled to be shooting again with members of our original family as well as new talents on both sides of the camera,” he said in an interview in April.
“All your favourite characters will soon be conspiring at the council tables, marching with their armies and riding their dragons into battle. We can’t wait to share what we have in store.”
It’s still a while off until the release of the new series, so until then it could be time for a rewatch of season one. House of the Dragon season one is available to watch on Binge.
