House of the Dragon

House of the Dragon,” the “Game of Thrones” author's preferred spinoff, premieres on Sunday night. “It had everything that I thought we needed for a ...

And even some of the things I told them are changing as I do the writing. Let’s say “House of the Dragon” is a hit. I always knew once the show got beyond my books — which honestly I did not anticipate — they would start going in directions that the books are not going to go in. The Long Night is mentioned in my books here and there, but it’s an ancient event that people tell stories about — it’s like the Garden of Eden or a biblical flood. As you know, “The Winds of Winter” is very, very late — the last book was 11 years ago, and people are very angry about that. I do like what Marvel is doing because I like the variety of the shows. And the one that really excited me was “Lou Grant.” They took this character from a sitcom and they made him the hero of a serious journalism show. “Game of Thrones” and my book version of it, “A Song of Ice and Fire,” is, in some ways, a classic high fantasy in the mode of Tolkien and many, many writers who followed. [“House of the Dragon”](https://www.nytimes.com/2022/08/10/arts/television/house-of-the-dragon-hbo-got.html) was ordered straight to series in late 2019. It had dragons — a lot of dragons — and battles and betrayals. And [the “Game of Thrones” creators David Benioff and Dan Weiss] for years were saying they wanted to wrap it up in seven seasons. Martin kept pushing: his rise-and-fall tale of the dragon-riding Targaryen family, set nearly 200 years before the events of “Game of Thrones.”

When is episode 1 of House of the Dragon Season 1 airing? Where can you watch this fantasy drama? Here's everything we know:

House of the Dragon is available to watch on the HBO channel and HBO Max. House of the Dragon is the long-awaited prequel to Game of Thrones, taking place 200 years before the War of the Five Kings. What do you hope to see as the series progresses?

Which characters matter? Which Houses are a factor? Why are their names so hard to spell? We have viewers of the 'Game of Thrones' prequel covered.

The influential family is a key ally of House Targaryen, so their prosperity — and family trees — are intertwined. The Hightowers are known for their wealth and are affiliated with the Tyrells, a house “Game of Thrones” fans are likely more familiar with. A close friend of Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen and Ser Otto Hightower’s daughter, Alicent grew up in the Red Keep. King Jaehaerys Targaryen’s grandchild who, as his oldest living descendant, had a claim to the Iron Throne. A formidable warrior, Prince Daemon serves as the commander of the City Watch of King’s Landing. The clan of dragon-riders became the first ruling house of the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros thanks to a successful conquest led by King Aegon Targaryen; the family ruled over Westeros for almost 300 years.

“I don’t think I am ready for it, but I don’t really think about it,” the Judge Dredd actor told [ The Hollywood Reporter](https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-features/steve-toussaint-house-of-the-dragon-sea-snake-1235189370/) ahead of the show’s August 2022 premiere.

(A younger version of the Targaryen princess is played by Milly Alcock.) The U.K.

The “Game of Thrones” spinoff tries to recapture the magic through nostalgic detail, family fights, and grisly scenes of childbirth.

Rhaenyra’s voice-over tells us that the old king knew that “the only thing that could tear down the House of the Dragon was itself.” Ain’t that the truth, king. Like the infamous final season of “Thrones,” “Dragon” doesn’t always make the most of its story’s assets. There’s funny dialogue, but mostly of the unintentional variety: “Laughing with your whores and your lickspittles!” the king yells to a relative, in a rage. Will “House of the Dragon” have us obsessing about the Crabfeeder? “Game of Thrones,” for all its flaws, was a Sunday-night treasure for a reason: its wild inventiveness and beauty, its overstuffed intrigue and action, its humor, its characters. (Did they always sound so Wookiee-like?) And it’s hard not to love a show in which hundreds of flickering votive candles surround not rose petals and a proposal but a dragon skull the size of a Humvee. The Daemon-Rhaenyra dynamic, and Daemon’s flaxen wig and eyes narrowed in constant scheming, recalls the Targaryens we know best: Daenerys and her brother, also named Viserys, whose death in “Thrones” involved our rejoicing while he encountered a faceful of molten gold. “Dragon” swiftly provides some of the old “Thrones” pleasures. Inside the palace, Rhaenyra and her friend Alicent Hightower visit the hugely pregnant queen (“This discomfort is how we serve the realm,” she says, proud and grim), and then Rhaenyra zips off to a meeting of the king and his advisers, where, as she pours water for them, undercover-Arya style, she listens to the proceedings: reports that begin “We’ve all been poring over the moon charts”; a discussion of a pirate-punishing madman called the Crabfeeder. Martin’s “ [Fire and Blood](https://www.amazon.com/dp/0593598008),” tells the story of House Targaryen in an era well before our old friends showed up—a hundred and seventy-two years before the death of the Mad King, the opening titles inform us, and the birth of his daughter Daenerys Targaryen. Like Rhaenyra, he’s a dragon rider—not just anybody can pilot those things—and, also like her, he’s a possible contender for the Iron Throne. The show opens not with a grim ice-monster sequence, as “Thrones” did—hat tip to that—but with the announcement, in a grand hall, of Prince Viserys (Paddy Considine) as the next king.

Toussaint relished the scenes where he could perform one on one with other actors. His battle scene? “I was terrible.”

I look kind of sexy.’ But then when we had to shoot it, the stuntmen resolutely refused to come at me one at a time in front of me like we’d rehearsed. “We didn’t discuss the fact that he was a warrior or that he was rich or that he was a nautical man … If they don’t well, we still had a great time making it and we’re proud of it.” “What was so irritating was that I spent a couple of weeks rehearsing with a stuntman and I thought, ‘This looks pretty good. “Some of the supporting artists would come up to me afterwards and be like, ‘It’s so good to see you up on that stage. But the joy of it is now there’s nothing we can do about it. But the serious side of it is that you don’t feel like you’re part of the world. There was some racist social media backlash to casting Lord Corlys as a Black man, but Toussaint said, “History is moving in a particular way. “I was lucky because the very first scene that was shot of the whole season was actually myself and Eve (Best, who plays Corlys’s wife),” Toussaint said. “Game of Thrones,” an adaptation of the George R.R. “It wasn’t actually until we were on a set for the throne room that we started to go, ‘Oh my God, this is huge’ … But for Steve Toussaint, who plays Lord Corlys Velaryon in the prequel series “House of the Dragon,” his favourite scenes were the most intimate ones.

In a reminder that dragons aren't the whole show, this "Game of Thrones" prequel takes a while to find its momentum. By Melanie McFarland ...

She's learning the price of capability and lessons about what it means to be a Targaryen, and a woman, from noble sources and unseemly ones. In the past, the Night King is a shadow and a myth, and the Lannisters are a family of try-hards. But if its early episodes indicate the tone Condal and his co-showrunner and director Miguel Sapochnik are going for, [they seem to have dialed that back](https://www.salon.com/2022/08/18/house-of-the-dragon-will-not-depict-violence_partner/). Alicent accepts her duty without fuss, following the steps set for her by a father that assures her that if she obeys the men in her life, she'll be rewarded with an elevated status. The difference is that Rhaenyra may never see a battlefield – although that's not a certainty – and Alicent definitely won't. Considine is a wonderful actor, but Viserys' duty fatigue is wearying, and everyone else in his court holds their emotions too close to the vest to add much spice. Her point of view informs the more balanced way the writers present women in a society programmed to write them off. Rhaenyra is younger when we first meet her (and played by Milly Alcock), with a slight build and quietude that belie a ferocious worthiness to rule. Martin](https://www.salon.com/2022/05/08/george-rr-martin-the-winds-of-winter-may-be-the-longest-bookin-the-series_partner/)'s Westeros sagas held off introducing its dragons until the last moment of the first season. Popular thinking may suppose that we could do without everything else but those fire-breathing terrors, but " [House of the Dragon](https://www.salon.com/2022/03/30/of-the-dragon-game-of-thrones-hbo/)" tests that theory. Since "House of the Dragon" is set 172 years before the Mad King's overthrow and the birth of Daenerys, sightings are far more common; when one screeches over King's Landing in the opening episode, the commonfolk barely blink. His cousin Rhaenys (Eve Best) was passed over by the old king despite being well-liked and married to Lord Corlys Velaryon (Steve Toussaint), head of the wealthiest house in Westeros.

House of the Dragon, now released on HBO and HBO Max, is playing its hand a little slower than Game of Thrones, as its pilot focuses on setting up the whole ...

Extending the show a bit of benefit of the doubt, House of the Dragon’s first episode is designed to be one part of a complete story, built to live in HBO Max’s content library forever as a brief snapshot of a fictional universe’s history. By the time the show reached its cultural apex, even fans who had never touched Martin’s original novels had crafted elaborate theories and could tell you all about the [prophecy of Azor Ahai](https://www.polygon.com/2019/4/9/18302196/game-of-thrones-azor-ahai-prophecy-jon-snow-daenerys). But even with all that in its favor, it’s purposefully not as quick or instantly enthralling as Game of Thrones’ debut episode was more than a decade ago. House of the Dragon’s pilot is still entertaining and intriguing. Game of Thrones opens with an ice zombie, then slowly, step by step, introduces you to all of its main characters — some who are only around for a season and some who last the entire series. And it appears to be taking its time and getting there carefully — in fact, the pilot is basically a prequel to the prequel, set over a decade before the major fighting in the Dance of the Dragons will occur and featuring its two most important characters as teenagers rather than adults. In the beginning of the original series, showrunners David Benioff and D.B. The series throws you into a sea of laws, plots, blond wigs, and complicated names, assuming that you’ll figure most of it out eventually. But with half a book coming before we get to all that, House of the Dragon has a whole lot of table setting to do before things really get going. [the book Fire & Blood](https://www.polygon.com/23057740/read-fire-blood-house-of-the-dragon) by A Song of Ice and Fire author George R.R. The series will tell the story of an event known as the Dance of the Dragons, essentially a Targaryen civil war over the succession of the Iron Throne, which turned all of Westeros against itself. But that’s not the case with HBO’s new successor show [House of the Dragon](https://go.redirectingat.com?id=66960X1516586&xs=1&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.hbomax.com%2Fseries%2Fhouse-of-the-dragon%3Foffer_id%3D5%26transaction_id%3D102c87c7%255B%25E2%2580%25A6%255D4ed39326beedc6012ca%26utm_source%3DVox%2BMedia%26utm_medium%3Daffiliate&referrer=polygon.com&sref=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.polygon.com%2F23287745%2Fhouse-of-the-dragon-pilot-game-of-thrones-hbo-fire-and-blood).

George R.R. Martin and Ryan J. Condal know it's horrific and disturbing. Here's why they say it was necessary.

It’s kicked off by him believing that he’s going to have a new male son after trying for years and years, and stillbirths and miscarriages, and all the hell that [his wife Queen Aemma] has been through as a mother. “A lot of people had things to say about the birth of Baelon, Prince Baelon,” Those two sentence have been expanded into a forced C-section, with Aemma screaming in anguish as she is held down and cut open by doctors and midwives who hope to save the breech baby even at the expense of her life. The death of the baby, and of the king's wife, Queen Aemma (Sian Brooke), during the botched birth, creates a void that other family members rush to fill, brandishing swords and fire-breathing monsters to gain the upper hand. [Fire & Blood](https://georgerrmartin.com/grrm_book/fire-and-blood/), which inspired the Game of Thrones prequel. The House of the Dragon pilot’s graphic birth scene caused a visceral response even at the show's gala premiere.

We wanted it to be difficult to watch”: Co-showrunner Miguel Sapochnik and actor Sian Brooke break down the series premiere's most brutal sequence.

Taken together, “the scene is meant to be a distillation of the experience of men and the experience of women during this time.” The director had two midwives on set during filming “to talk us through the reality of a Caesarean without anesthesia or modern instruments and medicine,” he said. Prior to filming, the actors also had a day-long rehearsal to make sure they were comfortable working with the prosthetics and other special effects that made the labor so viscerally lifelike. “It is the story’s inciting incident and needed to be strong and unflinching.” King Viserys and the Grand Maester never think to consult her, and so she is powerless over a decision about her own body.” Wade in June, “It feels more timely and impactful than ever,” said Sapochnik. And then within that, you’ve got this woman who’s at the mercy of a man’s decision.” Confused, then terrified, Aemma is pinned to the bed by a team of midwives as the Grand Maester makes an incision to her abdomen and removes the infant. The Grand Maester (David Horovitch) explains the predicament to Viserys: “During a difficult birth, it sometimes becomes necessary for the father to make an impossible choice: to sacrifice one, or to lose them both.” [the long-awaited spinoff “House of the Dragon”](https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/tv/story/2022-08-19/house-of-the-dragon-review-hbo-game-of-thrones) opens with a death — two, actually — as memorable as they are poignant. The theme of this birth scene was ‘torture,’” co-showrunner Miguel Sapochnik wrote in an email to The Times. “Each birth in this show has a theme, just as the battles I’ve filmed in the past have a central concept.

A Targaryen-centric prequel begins in typical Game of Thrones fashion: well-acted, violent, revolting, CGI'd to the max, and more than a little horny.

(And what did Otto write in the letter that he sent to Oldtown?) When he came to Westeros, Aegon had a dream: He foresaw the end of the world of men. But that doesn’t mean that their female characters will escape the fates of so many women of earlier ages (and let’s be honest, so many women of our own age). Rhaenyra and Daemon’s moments together are some of the most charged and exciting — their conversations in Valyrian edge them closer to dragon than human, and that little trill of desire when Daemon clasps a necklace around Rhaenyra’s throat has some big incest energy. The intertwining sequence of the tourney and Aemma’s brutal childbirth is this episode at its most vicious and its best. That is, we expect, one of the major questions House of the Dragon will explore. Lord Corlys Velaryon (Steve Toussaint, with just the right amount of swagger) is Master of Ships, a fitting role for a man known as the Sea Snake. Nine years into Viserys’s reign, and 172 years before the birth of Daenerys (a fact that the showrunners proclaim in big bold letters), another silver-haired dragon-rider swoops into frame. To his right stands his grandson Viserys (eldest son of his second son) and pregnant Aemma. So far the series feels expansive enough not to get bogged down in a Succession-like teeter-totter, where the balance of power swings back and forth to the point of nausea. [House of the Dragon](https://www.vulture.com/article/house-of-the-dragon-game-of-thrones-prequel-review.html) has no such protections in place. [told the New York Times](https://www.nytimes.com/2022/08/10/arts/television/house-of-the-dragon-hbo-got.html) that his ending for books six and seven — The Winds of Winter and A Dream of Spring, respectively — will substantially differ from Dave Benioff and D.B.

In the lavish Game of Thrones prequel, no one is immune to the toxic dynamics of the Targaryen family.

The dynamic between the adult Daemon and the 15-year-old Rhaenyra is immediately, grotesquely charged; they converse, intimately, in High Valyrian, and he looks at her with the loaded interest of a cat eyeing a bird. That seems to mean that, at least in the first six episodes made available to critics, virtually every plotline and motivation feels the same, and there may be no heroes, ultimately, to root for. By the end of the first episode, the grieving Viserys is also being comforted by Rhaenyra’s best friend, the teenaged Lady Alicent Hightower (Emily Carey), who has been compelled by her morose father (Rhys Ifans) to attend to the monarch despite her obvious reservations. On House of the Dragon, no primary relationship seems to be truly insulated from erotic desire, which is itself inextricable from the quest for power. An acknowledgment of the physically brutal and life-threatening reality of bearing children!) The show, based on a prequel history of the Targaryen family (which George R. It was present—most centrally in the sexual relationship between Jaime and Cersei Lannister, which Cersei justified by invoking the Targaryen tradition of marrying brothers and sisters—but not predominant until the final season, when Jon Snow and his aunt Daenerys made unfortunately literal the union of ice and fire. Or I will be”), and issue savage clapbacks (“And how have you served the realm, Lady Redwyne? Female characters school one another on patriarchal constraints (“Men would sooner put the realm to the torch than see a woman ascend to the Iron Throne”), affirm their authority (“I am the crown, Ser Criston. What was striking was the bifurcated way the person described the show’s framing for a post-#MeToo moment: conceding that there was “way less sex” in House of the Dragon than there could be in the good old tits-and-trebuchets days of yore, but also boasting that producers had cleverly adapted to the times by replacing sexual violence with barbaric renderings of childbirth. Martin published as Fire & Blood in 2018), begins 172 years before the birth of Daenerys Stormborn, the platinum-haired dragon queen in Thrones, and is in large part about the obstacles that stand in the way of women achieving and exerting power. But it also seems to strain at times with the possibly cynical effort of countering Game of Thrones’s Such “discomfort,” she explains, “is how [women] serve the realm.”) Think about this statement for a moment—that sexual violence is so fundamental to a franchise’s ethos that it has to be replaced with some other portrayal of primal female pain and suffering lest viewers lose interest—and your head might spin.

Spoiler alert! The world of "Game of Thrones" returned to TV with HBO's "House of the Dragon" spinoff all about the Targaryens.

Otto chooses a meeting of the King's small council afterward to bring up the topic of succession, voicing his concerns about Daemon's temperament (and general hatred for the king's little brother). He also tells her about a prophecy their ancestor Aegon saw a hundred years ago, about the end of mankind starting with a great and terrible winter. Rhaenyra can fly on her dragon with her best friend Alicent Hightower (Emily Carey); Daemon can turn the City Watch into a murder brigade and creepily give his niece gifts; and Viserys can throw a jousting tournament in honor of his unborn sure-to-be son. He sends Alicent, his 15-year-old daughter, into the bedroom of the king, just to offer him some company, he says. He chooses the baby, and holds Aemma's hand while the medical "maesters" butcher her in a violent, bloody Caesarean section that leaves her bloody and dead on the bed. He has no time to discuss affairs of state with his Hand of the King, Otto Hightower (Rhys Ifans) or potential war in the borderlands known as the Stepstones with Master of Ships Corlys Velaryon (Steve Toussaint). So to set the scene for "Dragon" we start with a prologue: The good Targaryen King Jaehaerys ruled over Westeros during a half century of peace, but he has no sons to succeed him on the Iron Throne. It's a slice of the "Thrones" world, mostly within the walls of the Red Keep in King's Landing (that's the palace in the fictional nation's capital, if you've forgotten since [ "Thrones" ended in 2019](https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/tv/2019/05/21/game-of-thrones-tarnished-legacy-fan-anger-series-finale-iron-throne/3692682002/)). So he calls a great council to choose his heir, picking between his oldest descendent, Princess Rhaenys (Eve Best) and his oldest male descendent, Prince Viserys (Paddy Considine). So what to think of "Dragon" after the first hour? It is not, perhaps, as bombastic as many fans would hope and, worse, does little to establish the characters as sympathetic or even intriguing (a [weakness that doesn't go away](https://www.usatoday.com/story/entertainment/tv/2022/08/19/house-of-the-dragon-review-game-of-thrones-spinoff-disappointment/10331489002/), at least not in the first six episodes made available for review). It doesn't quite grab you the way its predecessor did, but perhaps all the dragon flying, nudity and dismemberment the pilot delivers will be enough to bring fans back for Episode 2.

The Game Of Thrones prequel brings us back to King's Landing in “The Heirs Of The Dragon”

The lords of Westeros pledge fealty to their future queen, looking so young and lost in her royal raiment, over Viserys delivering the rest of his message to his daughter and heir. Viserys begins with a warning: The control their family holds over the dragons is an illusion that led to the infamous Doom of Valyria, and if they forget their history, they’re doomed to repeat it. - Aemma tells Rhaenyra that the way women serve the realm is by bearing children, but her headstrong daughter would rather be a knight. If this first episode is anything to go on, House Of The Dragon will be a more staid affair than Game Of Thrones, for better or worse. Still, the princess steps forward and utters the first “Dracarys!” of the series, and the king’s dragon sets the bodies aflame. The subject of the day is planning a jousting tournament in honor of the maybe-prince’s maybe-birth, and it seems like these guys are really playing dice with the Old Gods and the New. The gore gets so intense, in fact, that a young squire on the sidelines vomits in the dirt—and I almost did too. In any case, it was all for nothing: It’s only minutes after the prince is born (and named Baelon by his stricken father) that he starts struggling for breath. Then everything goes fine and Aemma has a healthy baby boy, and the rest of the show is just the royal fam being happy-go-lucky sweethearts. Jaehaerys did this to prevent a civil war, because, as a voiceover warns us, “the only thing that could tear down the House Of The Dragon was itself.” The kingdom goes to the dude. Martin, is set 172 years before the overthrow of the centuries-long Targaryen reign that kicked off the events of Game Of Thrones.

Meanwhile, Daemon is at a brothel and goes on a rant about Viserys and his dead son, who was the “heir for a day.” His insolence makes it back to Otto Hightower, who then tells Viserys, who is, understandably, not happy. He also namedrops their ancestor Aegon Targaryen, the upcoming Long Winter that may lay ruin to Westeros and “a song of ice and fire,” which is basically the entire plot of “Game of Thrones.” After officially naming Rhaenyra as next in line for the Iron Throne, the council and other lords of Westeros pledge fealty to her and Viserys. Also, her best friend is Alicent Hightower (played as a teen by Emily Carey), who’s the daughter of Otto Hightower (Rhys Ifans), the Hand to King Viserys. Desperate for a male heir, Viserys tells the maesters to operate on Aemma and remove the child. While we’re at it, let’s meet the other major players on Viserys’ council: Lord Corlys Velaryon (Steve Toussaint), who’s married to Viserys’ cousin Rhaenys, and Daemon Targaryen (Matt Smith), Viserys’ trouble-making younger brother who rides dragons, leads the city watch and kills criminals in the streets. This time, instead of a sprawling tale across different families and cities, “House of the Dragon” mostly centers on the royal Targaryen family in King’s Landing.

Introducing Rhaenyra Targaryen, another platinum-blonde, dragon-riding princess, and her entire dysfunctional royal family.

Only in the wake of her mother and brother’s death does Rhaenyra finally allow herself to voice the rage she’s felt toward her father, and his inability to see her as worthy of the Iron Throne: “I wonder if during those few hours my brother lived, my father finally found happiness.” Just as a mystery knight named Criston Cole (Fabien Frankel) bests Daemon at the height of the tournament, tragedy strikes House Targaryen, when both Aemma and her child die in Viserys and his beloved wife Aemma (Sian Brooke) are due to bring a new child into the world, and Viserys is convinced it will be a boy, thanks to a dream, “clearer than a memory.” The king is so sure of his son’s imminent arrival that he throws a lavish tournament in the baby’s honor, an event that quickly descends into typical Thronesian bloodshed, both on and off the battlefield. With the end of his life in sight and without a clear heir to his name, Jaehaerys Targaryen summons a council to untangle the matter of succession between two choices: his eldest heir, Princess Rhaenys (Eve Best), and his eldest male heir, Viserys (Paddy Considine). (The erstwhile Eleventh Doctor’s introduction to the world of House of the Dragon, in which he leads the gold-cloaked City Watch through a fire-and-bloody raid of King’s Landing, immediately ranks among the most violent in the entire Thrones franchise.) There are legitimate concerns about this man ascending to the throne, most repeatedly raised by Otto Hightower (Rhys Ifans), Hand of the King. Up in the sky, a platinum-blonde princess rides her dragon over the streets of King’s Landing.

NOUS L'AVONS VU - Westeros est enfin de retour sur nos écrans. L'occasion de découvrir une nouvelle ère... et des nouvelles menaces.

Un rêve qu'il a baptisé "le chant du feu et de la glace" (A Song of Ice and Fire, le titre de la saga de G.R.R. Visérys fait aussi une confidence à sa fille en lui racontant un secret qui passe de roi en roi depuis des générations. Le roi explique à sa fille qu'elle sera l'héritière légitime du Trône de Fer après sa mort. L'accouchement très difficile provoque la mort de la reine après une césarienne suicidaire, puis la mort du nourrisson. Daemon n'ayant rien trouvé de mieux que de fanfaronner en pensant déjà que la couronne lui reviendrait, celui-ci a provoqué l'ire de son frère, le roi. Daemon reçoit l'ordre indiscutable de retourner auprès de la femme qu'il a délaissé, loin de la cour. Pour que la couronne n'arrive jamais sur la tête du premier mâle dans l'ordre de succession, l'impulsif Daemon, le Conseil du roi suggère de nommer Rhaenyra, héritière du trône. Des mains, des bras, des pénis et des têtes sont arrachées avec une certaine gourmandise par les troupes de Daemon. Les vrais fans de Game of Thrones se sont certainement levés en pleine nuit pour découvrir le premier épisode de la nouvelle série de HBO House of The Dragon. Les spectateurs vont avoir droit à une collection admirable de démembrements pour la première scène sanguinaire de la série. House of the Dragon offre ensuite un petit tour de la capitale King's Landing de nouveau intacte avec la jeune princesse de retour d'un petit trajet aérien à dos de dragon. Les Targaryen n'étaient alors pas les parias que l'on connaît mais la plus puissante famille de Westeros, capable de commander aux dragons et d'imposer sa volonté à ses rivaux.

Avec "House of the Dragon", HBO espère bien réitérer l'exploit de "Game of Thrones". Selon le magazine "Variety", chacun des dix épisodes de cette première saison aurait coûté un peu moins de 20 millions de dollars.

Rhaenyra is the kind of strong-headed character you want to root for (and one of the only characters you want to root for). She is fond of her uncle, Daemon, and of her father, though the death of her mother creates a divide between them. [ this blog](https://www.forbes.com/sites/erikkain/#196d790943ab) for all my TV recaps and reviews including every episode of House of the Dragon and the upcoming Rings of Power. Each Targaryen king has passed not only the Iron Throne down to their heirs, but the Song of Ice and Fire, a vision Aegon the Conqueror had of a terrible magical threat in the north that will someday come down from the icy forests of myth and sweep across the land of the living. Otto Hightower (Rhys Ifans) the dour Hand of the King finds Viserys and tells him the grim tale. Viserys is called away from the jousting and finds his wife exhausted and frightened in the tower. Viserys is a man who wishes to be loved, and who is generous in shows of affection. Daemon believes that it is better to be feared than to be loved, and makes no effort to be loved even by his wife who he refers to as ‘the bronze bitch.’ When confronted over the Flea Bottom massacre, Daemon rebukes his brother, telling him that outside the cloistered halls of the Red Keep, King’s Landing has become a place of fear where ordinary citizens live in terror for the lives and possessions. They’ve put him in charge of the city watch, and soon his Gold Cloaks become a fierce, highly-trained fighting force with unflinching loyalty not to the crown, but to Daemon himself. One of the major threads in this first episode that will carry on well beyond the premiere, is the relationship between Viserys and his younger brother, Daemon (Matt Smith) who is heir apparent when this story begins. The looting and carnage is hitting Driftmark the hardest, but will soon impact the economy of all Westeros. Jaehaerys was a beloved king who had many children, but all of his male heirs died before he did and so the question of succession loomed large over the land and on the king’s conscience.

La fantasy reflète les fantasmes de notre époque et se prête à toutes les interprétations. Il est amplifié par le succès des films tirés de la saga, puis par celui de la trilogie Seigneur des anneaux réalisée par Peter Jackson. Parmi les spin-offs attendus, c’est le plus intéressant, car il est bâti sur les deux tomes du roman de George R. Jusqu’à la fin des années 1990, la fantasy concerne plutôt les garçons amateurs de jeux vidéo, de jeux de rôles ou de la collection Un Livre dont vous êtes le Héros chez Gallimard jeunesse. La série adapte partiellement Le Silmarillion (1977), une œuvre posthume de l’auteur achetée à prix d’or par Prime Video. La naissance de la fantasy est intimement liée à l’âge d’or du médiévalisme anglais dans la seconde moitié du XIXe siècle. Elle diffère en cela du fantastique, qui lui fait naître l’effroi en introduisant du surnaturel dans un monde réel, et de la science-fiction, qui part du postulat que les règles du monde changent en raison des progrès d’une science de plus en plus futuriste. R. C’est cette collection qui va, à travers ses publications, « fixer » le terme de fantasy. Sa popularité le pousse à créer la collection Ballantine Adult Fantasy Series en 1969, laquelle va rééditer sous forme de livres de poche des ouvrages épuisés d’Ernest Bramah, Hope Mirrlees, William Morris… Lancée sur HBO ce dimanche 21 août, la déclinaison de la série de fantasy de George R.

Never let it be said that a Game of Thrones property isn't going to deliver big, brutal events.

When Rhaenys remarks at the tournament that all the fighters have, as Best puts it, “their hands full of steel and none of them have ever known real war,” it’s a reminder that King’s Landing has been under Targaryen rule for centuries, leaving the empire rather lax and soft. “It was the biggest source of shame in Rhaenys’ life, and the fact that it’s constantly being referred to is really, really annoying.” By the end, he says, “you’re hopefully able to canter and hold some kind of sword in your hand.” “It’s not my natural habitat to be on a horse,” Smith says, adding that he and Frankel would pop into the scenes after the doubles took their falls. It was just shooting on the studio backlot, but Carey says doing that scene was the first moment where she was really reminded that, “Hey, this is Game of Thrones.

"House of the Dragon" episode one featured a mention of the "Song of Ice and Fire" prophecy in "Game of Thrones". What does it mean for the show?

Will it make her the kind of ruler that prioritises peace and unity? That apocalyptic prophecy is one of the driving narratives in Game of Thrones, and this serves as a chilling reminder that it's been more than 200 years in the making. If we had to guess, though, unlike in Thrones (where the prophecy was due to play out imminently), here it seems that it will mainly be a driver for character motivations. "Just as Daenys foresaw the end of Valyria, Aegon foresaw the end of the world of men. And if the world of men is to survive a Targaryen must be seated on the Iron Throne. The Song of Ice and Fire, eh?

This is the norm in Westeros, a kingdom whose mores and attitudes are based on the similarly misogynist world of medieval Europe. It’s a decision that [sets the tone for not only the premiere](https://www.polygon.com/e/23051786) episode of [HBO’s Game of Thrones](https://www.polygon.com/game-of-thrones) [prequel](https://www.polygon.com/23292279/house-of-the-dragon-mushroom-canon), but for the fate of [the entire Targaryen dynasty](https://www.polygon.com/game-of-thrones/23058669/house-of-the-dragon-cast-characters-story-fire-and-blood-targaryens). It’s as dangerous as it gets […] We have a number of births in the show and basically decided to give them different themes and explore them from different perspectives the same way I did for a bunch of battles on Thrones.” Later in the episode, Viserys’ decision to make Rhaenyra his heir is motivated more by his anger towards his brother Daemon Targaryen (Matt Smith) than his faith in Rhaenyra’s abilities. [House of the Dragon](https://go.redirectingat.com?id=66960X1516586&xs=1&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.hbomax.com%2Fseries%2Fhouse-of-the-dragon%3Foffer_id%3D5%26transaction_id%3D102c87c7%255B%25E2%2580%25A6%255D4ed39326beedc6012ca%26utm_source%3DVox%2BMedia%26utm_medium%3Daffiliate&referrer=polygon.com&sref=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.polygon.com%2F23315490%2Fhouse-of-the-dragon-episode-1-review) shows us what happens when women are treated as vessels and incubators. While Aemma attempts to deliver a baby who’s breeched (i.e., is turned with the feet downward instead of the head, a common and dangerous complication), the maester pulls the king aside and tells him it’s time to “make an impossible choice.” Who will live, and who will die? And so she ceases to be of value to the realm, as is illustrated in the bloodiest scene in an episode full of them. in recent months, where the repeal of Roe v. Director Miguel Sapochnik begins with a closeup of blood dripping from the maester’s hands, ramping up the gore as he cuts back and forth between the violence of Aemma’s murder-by-surgery and the bloodshed of the tournament happening outside the castle walls — a tourney put on, ironically enough, in the baby boy’s honor. In fact, she’s surprised and terrified when her husband kneels down beside her, strokes her hair and tells her not to be afraid, and nods to the maester to begin cutting. As Rhaenyra’s mother, Lady Aemma Arryn (Sian Brooke) tells Rhaenyra early on in the episode, “the childbed is our battlefield.” Aemma’s — and therefore her daughter’s — power lies in her capacity to get pregnant and bear a male heir.

Sunday's long-awaited premiere aimed to create investment in a new royal power struggle while assuring viewers that this was still “Game of Thrones.”

[an interview](https://www.nytimes.com/2022/08/19/arts/television/house-of-the-dragon-ryan-condal-miguel-sapochnik.html)before the season, Sapochnik discussed the importance of making the dragons feel like real, organic parts of the world. “And the day grows ugly …” Rhaenys deadpanned as the crowd delighted in the brutality, which was one way to put it. That poor mid-coital couple frozen on the floor of the brothel. The scene was a somber counterpoint to the chaos and violent agony that had come before it, and Sapochnik wisely let the quietness build. But based on his unhealing lesions and their evidence that the throne doesn’t like him — as well as the fact that this is a succession story, and that monarchs need to die for games of thrones to go on — he seems unlikely to occupy it for long. Sapochnik, the director of “Thrones” spectacles like Martin](https://www.nytimes.com/2022/08/21/arts/television/george-rr-martin-house-of-the-dragon.html), the “Thrones” godhead, wanted to go with all along, which is what we got on Sunday, complete with the more hulking Iron Throne. Second: The patriarchal leaders of the realm will resist attempts to put a woman on the Iron Throne. [HBO’s efforts](https://www.nytimes.com/2022/08/10/arts/television/house-of-the-dragon-hbo-got.html), after the polarizing end of its biggest-ever hit, to keep the “Thrones” loot train going. “The childbed is our battlefield,” she said, and we saw how that turned out. (Though I admit that even in a more pensive register, the “duh-nuh-NUH-nuh” motif is very satisfying.) But it is fundamentally still the same ugly chair inspiring the same ugly feelings — anxiety, envy, power-lust, a willingness to betray friends and relatives.
