“House of the Dragon” will return for a third chapter.
The “Game of Thrones” spin-off series was renewed for a third season by HBO, the network announced Thursday, just days before the premiere of “HOTD” Season 2.
Based on “Game of Thrones” author George R.R. Martin’s “Fire & Blood” book series, “House of the Dragon” takes place 200 years before the events of “Game of Thrones” and focuses on House Targaryen. Its inaugural season debuted in August 2022, and introduced heroines Rhaenyra Targaryen and Alicent Hightower, who were first played in their younger versions by Milly Alcock and Emily Carey, respectively, before Emma D’Arcy and Olivia Cooke took over the roles halfway through Season 1.
