Everything We Know About House Of The Dragon Season 2 House of the Dragon season 2 is coming to HBO, and will have to build upon the dramatic events of the season 1 finale. Here's everything to know. Here's what to know about House of the Dragon season 2, including what to expect from its story and when it might be released. Coming three years after the controversial Game of Thrones ending, House of the Dragon has marked a return to form for stories set in Westeros. It has generally received strong reviews and praise from critics and audiences alike, and been a huge hit for HBO in the ratings as well. Season 1 may have put any lingering doubts to rest, but the onus is now on what the future looks like, as that was only the beginning. House of the Dragon season 2 will be expected to push things even further, especially following on from the dramatic season 1 ending. After Aegon and Rhaenyra were both crowned, and Aemond killed Lucerys just outside of Storm's End, then civil war is on the horizon and things are only going to get bigger and bloodier going forward. The Game of Thrones spinoff is very much set up for the long haul and should run for a good few years, so here's a breakdown of what's known as far about House of the Dragon season 2. House Of The Dragon Season 2 Cast: Who Will Return? House of the Dragon season 2's cast should bring back most of the actors involved in season 1. After several time jumps, House of the Dragon seems set with its adult cast, and so all the characters still alive are likely to return. That will mean the show is once again led by Emma D'Arcy as Rhaenyra Targaryen and Olivia Cooke as Alicent Hightower, as well as an increased focus on their children as well. Based on season 1, then the main cast of season 2 will look like this: Emma D'Arcy as Rhaenyra Targaryen Matt Smith as Daemon Targaryen Olivia Cooke as Alicent Hightower Rhys Ifans as Otto Hightower Fabien Frankel as Criston Cole Eve Best as Rhaenys Targaryen Steve Toussain as Corlys Velaryon Sonoya Mizuno as Mysaria Tom Glynn-Carney as Aegon II Targaryen Ewan Mitchell as Aemond Targaryen Phia Saban as Helaena Targaryen Harry Collett as Jacaerys Velaryon Bethany Antonia as Baela Targaryen Phoebe Campbell as Rhaena Targaryen Graham McTavish as Harrold Westerling Matthew Needham as Larys Strong House Of The Dragon Season 2 Release Date Prediction House of the Dragon season 2 is expected to begin filming in Spring 2023 at the latest, with Spanish newspaper Hoy (via Watchers on the Wall) reporting production will return to Cáceres (which was used for King's Landing in season 1) around April and May. It's possible filming will begin before then, however, with the UK's Leavesden Studios used to film much of season 1. Still, with production likely lasting until at least halfway through 2023, it seems likely House of the Dragon season 2's release date will be sometime in 2024.
