Dracarys! The Targaryens will enter our homes once again. HBO Max released Game of Thrones' prequel trailer, House of the Dragon, which will air in 2022.
Game of Thrones is a fantasy drama created by David Benioff and D.B.Weiss based on George R.R. Martin's fantasy novels "A Song Of Ice And Fire." The series has been named by many critics as one of the best shows of all time.
The fictional seven kingdoms of Westeros and the continent of Essos have thrilled fans all over the world as the Starks, the Lannisters and the Targaryens initiated a war of succession for the coveted Iron Throne.
Game of Thrones has also won many awards, including 59 Emmys, eight Screen Actors Guild Awards and a Peabody Award.
During the HBO Max Europe launch event, HBO Max released the trailer of the prequel House of the Dragon, which will cover events from 200 years before the fall of the Iron Throne. In the trailer, we can see a glimpse of the Targaryen's dynasty with a voice over that says:
"Dreams didn't make us kings. Dragons did."
