Prepare yourselves, Game of Thrones fans because House of the Dragon season 2 is coming real soon and boy, oh boy, I am pumped for it.
The Game of Thrones prequel — set 200 years before the hit show — tells the story of the house of Targaryen and features the likes of Emma D’Arcy, Olivia Cooke and Matt Smith.
Season two shows the start of the Targaryen civil war, in what’s been dubbed the Greens (those aligned with Alicent and Aegon II) vs the Blacks (those aligned with Rhaenyra and Daemon). Season two will pick up after season one, after the death of Rhaenyra’s second-born son, Lucerys Velaryon. Rhaenyra and Alicent, once childhood best friends (with more than a lil’ bit of sexual tension), are hellbent on fighting to the death — and the future of Westeros.
Like the OG show, House of the Dragon is adapted from a George R. R. Martin novel — Fire & Blood — so you know you are going to be in for a real treat. There’s a reason we picked it as one of the best new TV shows to stream in June 2024, ya know?
When does House of the Dragon Season 2 premiere?
The second season of the popular GoT spinoff House of the Dragon will hit Australian screens at 11:15am on Monday, June 17.
Episodes will drop weekly on a Sunday from now until the end of the season in early August. The release schedule is as follows:
- Episode 1: Monday, June 17
- Episode 2: Monday, June 24

- Episode 4: Monday, July 8
- Episode 5 Monday, July 15
- Episode 6: Monday, July 22
- Episode 7: Monday, July 29
- Episode 8: Monday, August 5
Each episode will run for approximately one hour, which means you can safely binge the whole thing on a lazy Sunday, if you’re not keen to wait for each episode to drop. But warning, you’ll almost definitely be copping spoilers for this.
