HBO’s hit prequel series, House of the Dragon, has officially received a definitive end date. Showrunner Ryan Condal confirmed during a recent press conference that the show will conclude with its fourth season. While author George R.R. Martin had previously expressed his belief that four seasons would suffice to adapt the “Dance of the Dragons” storyline from his book “Fire & Blood”, HBO had remained tight-lipped about the show’s overall plan.
House of the Dragon to conclude after season 4; season 3 to commence in early 2025
According to Variety, Ryan Condal also revealed that the writing for Season 3 is underway, with production slated to begin in early 2025. While the episode count for the upcoming season hasn’t been confirmed, the showrunner anticipates maintaining the same storytelling pace as Season 2.
Fans were eagerly anticipating the iconic Battle of the Gullet to conclude Season 2. However, Condal explained the decision to hold off on this pivotal moment: “We were trying to give the Gullet, which is arguably the most anticipated — well, I would say maybe the second-most-anticipated — action event of “Fire & Blood,” trying to give it the time and the space that it deserves.” He further assured fans that the battle will be the “biggest thing to date” and will happen “very shortly” in the narrative.
The finale also featured a surprising glimpse of Otto Hightower, seemingly imprisoned. While Condal declined to provide specifics, he teased that the character’s story is far from over, promising that answers will be revealed in Season 3.
Following the House of the Dragon 2 finale on August 4, HBO unveiled the first glimpse of the highly anticipated Game of Thrones spinoff, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, in the recent sizzle reel. The series will arrive in 2025.
