Season 2 of House of the Dragon is currently in development and will most likely be released next year in 2024. This was confirmed by Casey Bloys, President of HBO and HBO Max programming.
Season 1 of the show was one of HBO’s most successful ventures to date, and it became one of the most-watched programs in 2022. Palace of the Dragon was one of several program ideas submitted to the network. The decision was then made to continue with the story of the Targaryen dynasty, which took place 172 years before the events of Game of Thrones.
Bloys stated:
“Remember to get ‘House of the Dragon,’ following up from ‘Game of Thrones,’ we developed a number of programs, filmed a pilot, wrote a handful of screenplays, and we secured ‘House of the Dragon,'” says the producer.
The Dragon Castle Season 2: The first priority is a strong screenplay
House of the Dragon foreshadows HBO’s previously successful epic series Game of Thrones. Although Game of Thrones’ first three seasons was well-received for their captivating narrative and clever development, fans complained that the subsequent seasons had lost their luster due to poor writing.
HBO wants to provide viewers with an unforgettable experience. They are concentrating on writing a strong screenplay for Season 2 of House of the Dragon. They’re taking their time in the hopes of repeating the success of their first season, but they haven’t ruled out showing other programs before the highly anticipated season begins.
Bloys stated:
“In my opinion, the most important thing is a good screenplay. I’m not doing it for the sake of having one or two a year. I’d like to base it on screenplays that we’re excited about.”
He continued, saying:
“You must try a variety of techniques. You never know what will be successful. That’s exactly what we’re doing right now. I have no reservations about participating in any number of programs. There’s probably a natural limit to how many supporters can be accommodated, but I’m open to any number as long as we’re enthusiastic about the screenplays and the potential for a series. It takes time to find the perfect one. I’m sure George [R.R. Martin] agrees.”
The show’s formal creator, George R.R. Martin, is notorious for taking a long time to release his books but has never failed to produce excellent work. There was also talk of a Jon Snow sequel starring Kit Harrington, but Bloys didn’t have any specifics other than the fact that it’s still in the works. He also confirmed that Season 2 of the show will not be eligible for Emmy nominations in 2024, so it will most likely resume in the summer of 2024.
