The second season of HBO's Game of Thrones prequel, House of the Dragon, will be streaming sometime in summer 2024, the makers confirmed at an HBO event held in New York.

The show has wrapped up with its shooting and is currently in the post-production phase.

House of the Dragon follows the events two centuries before the original. The ten episodes of the prequel's first season depicted how the House of Targaryen fell into a bitter and brutal civil war known as the Dance of the Dragons — presaging the beginning of the end of the ruling family of Westeros.

The series, created by authors George RR Martin and Ryan J Condal, based on Martin's novel Fire & Blood, stars an ensemble cast including Paddy Considine, Emmy D'Arcy Matt Smith, Rhys Ifans, Olivia Cooke and Fabien Frankel.

House of the Dragon has Ryan Condal as the co-runner of the series.
