Even though it felt like a long time ago, it has been 18 months since the House of the Dragon season 1 finale came out. While the fans of HBO’s fantasy series have been desperately waiting for the second season to come out, it looks like the wait is finally coming to an end.
The series is based on George R.R. Martin’s novel “Fire and Blood,” which follows the Targaryen family. The focus of “House of the Dragon” is the civil war, also known as the “Dance of the Dragons,” which took place roughly 200 years before the events of “Game of Thrones.”

What is the plot of House of the Dragon Season 2?
As the show prepares for the long term, Season 2 will probably only have eight episodes, which is two fewer than the first season of House of the Dragon. HBO unveiled the Season 2 teaser trailers, which heavily emphasize the rivalry between Olivia Cooke’s character Alicent Hightower and Emma D’Arcy’s character Rhaenyra Targaryen. The two teasers portray the perspectives of Team Green (those who favor King Aegon and Alicent) and Team Black (those who support Queen Rhaenyra) as they compete for control of the Iron Throne.
