Season 2 of “House of the Dragon” has just revealed two new trailers, just a few months before its release. Discover the first images and the release date in France.
It’s been almost two years since fans of House of the Dragonspin-off of Game Of Thrones, are waiting to discover the rest of the series. Season 2 is arriving very soon, since the eight episodes will be broadcast from June 16, 2024, for a weekly broadcast. Two trailers were unveiled this Thursday, March 21, to show the two versions of this war between the Blacks and the Greens, inviting spectators to “choose their sides”.
This sequel promises to be heavy, since the war between the “Greens” (King Aegon and by extension his mother, Alicent, second wife of King Viserys) and the “Blacks” (Rhaenyra Targaryen, eldest daughter who believes she has been usurped his throne) will rage in the next episodes. These two trailers showing the two camps, to be discovered a little further down, promise new political conspiracies and epic battles, which will precipitate the fall of the House of Dragons.
In France, we do not yet know precisely where to see the episodes of the prequel of Game Of Thrones. The Max streaming platform will arrive in France before the Paris Olympics in July, in parallel with the broadcast of season 2 of House of the Dragon. It could then host the episodes, just like Prime Video, which offers HBO content via the Warner Pass. Below, discover the trailers for season 2 and the information you need to know about the return of House of the Dragon.
