House of the Dragon Season 2 Trailer Released by HBO
Teams Green and Black are back in the official Season 2 trailer for House of the Dragon.
The tension is building for House Targaryen in the official Season 2 trailer for House of the Dragon. The hit spinoff of Game of Thrones is back this summer for a second installment, as Team Green and Team Black face off for control of the Iron Throne. HBO's marketing around House of the Dragon Season 2 has revolved around separate trailers for the Green and Black Councils, represented by King Aegon and Queen Rhaenyra, respectively. After the dramatic finish to House of the Dragon's first season, fans have been anticipating its comeback. Luckily, the newest trailer previews all of the action and drama in store.
Based on George R.R. Martin's "Fire & Blood," House of the Dragon is set 200 years before the events of Game of Thrones, and tells the story of House Targaryen. "The Targaryen who sits the Iron Throne is not just a king or queen. They are a protector of the realm," Queen Rhaenyra says as the House of the Dragon trailer begins. "Now I find myself in an impossible position. The enemy usurped my throne." We then follow the family feud from both sides, with King Aegon positioned in the familiar King's Landing, and the tease of other familiar Game of Thrones houses joining the fight.
