HBO has dropped the first look at its "Game of Thrones" prequel, "House of the Dragon."
"200 Years before the fall of the throne. A dynasty reigned," a title card from the teaser reads, setting the scene for the snippets of sword-and-armor action.
"Gods. Kings. Fire. And blood," a character says. "Dreams didn't make us kings. Dragons did."
Based on George R.R. Martin's "Fire & Blood" book, set hundreds of years before the events of "Game of Thrones," "House of the Dragon" is a deep dive into the history of the House Targaryen, ancestors of the tragic heroine Daenerys Targaryen, who was played by Emilia Clarke.
"House of the Dragon" stars Olivia Cooke as Alicent Hightower, Rhys Ifans as Otto Hightower, Steve Toussaint as Lord Corlys Velaryon, former "Doctor Who" and "The Crown" star Matt Smith as Prince Daemon Targaryen and Emma D’Arcy as Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen.
The series also stars Paddy Considine, Fabien Frankel, Eve Best, Sonoya Mizuno, Wil Johnson, John Macmillan, Savannah Steyn and Theo Nate.
No official release date has been announced, but the teaser notes the series will arrive in 2022.
