HBO has been teasing something via the official House of the Dragon Twitter account for the past few hours, and they've now debuted a series of posters spotlighting the main players from the upcoming Game of Thrones prequel series.
The banners feature new looks at the Targaryen royal family, including King Viserys, Prince Daemon, princess Rhaenyra, and their various knights, hands and confidantes.
Like GOT, this show is going to feature a lot of characters, although it will focus on the civil war that erupts within House Targaryen as opposed to several different factions feuding for the Iron Throne.
"The prequel series finds the Targaryen dynasty at the absolute apex of its power, with more than 15 dragons under their yoke. Most empires—real and imagined—crumble from such heights. In the case of the Targaryens, their slow fall begins almost 193 years before the events of Game of Thrones, when King Viserys Targaryen breaks with a century of tradition by naming his daughter Rhaenyra heir to the Iron Throne. But when Viserys later fathers a son, the court is shocked when Rhaenyra retains her status as his heir, and seeds of division sow friction across the realm."
House of the Dragon stars Paddy Considine (Peaky Blinders) as King Viserys Targaryen, Olivia Cooke (Ready Player One) as Alicent Hightower, Emma D’Arcy (Wanderlust) as Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen and Matt Smith (Doctor Who) as Prince Daemon Targaryen.
