“Game of Thrones” fans might not have too long to wait for the first of many developing prequel series to hit the cable airwaves of HBO. The original series which lasted for many years went of the airwaves last May, with many fans disappointed by how the final season ended.
In a new chat with Variety, HBO programming chief Casey Bloys hinted at a possible 2022 airdate for what will likely be the first spinoff to arrive: “House of the Dragon.” While Bloys was reticent to announce an official date — after all, the series has not yet laid out production dates — he did tell the trade that the team is “in the room breaking story right now. … My guess is we’ll see it on the air in ’22.”
In the waning days of HBO’s fantasy hit, the cable outfit hinted at a number of potential spinoffs, sequels, and prequels that could follow the smash series. At one point, the rumored series numbered four, and then as many as five possible offerings. The first to make it out of the gate: “House of the Dragon,” focused on the early days of House Targaryen.
The new series which Set 300 years before Game of Thrones, will focus on House Targaryen. Although no cast has yet been announced. Of course, one of the most famous Targaryens is the Mother of Dragons herself, Daenerys. However, with the series in the early stages, it's unknown if any Game of Thrones characters will pop up in some capacity.
Per Variety, House of the Dragon is on track for a 2022 release. In the interview Casey Bloys spoke about the series. He explained, “They [the writers] are in the room breaking story right now. My guess is we’ll see it on the air in ’22.” If that release date does come to fruition, it should give fans more than enough time to miss the world of Game of Thrones and be excited to revisit it.
