Many would say that Rhaenyra was born with everything… but she was not born a man. As HBO describes them in its official press materials:Įmma D’Arcy as Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen The king’s first-born child, she is of pure Valyrian blood, and she is a dragonrider. In the first initial photos, as well as the new trailer, the network revealed five new characters. It's also probably not a bad time to note that the show very much remains vulnerable to pandemic production woes that could delay things further-production has already shut down once in the UK once following a positive Covid-19 test among the crew-so a firm debut is unlikely to be confirmed anytime soon.
Considering filming only began this past spring, it seems most likely that we'll see a release date in the second half of 2022.
In the teaser trailer, HBO confirms that the show's ten episodes will debut sometime in 2022. #HouseoftheDragon /16aV66l07i- HBO Max OctoWhen Is the House of the Dragon Release Date?
