Alongside the release date, HBO also dropped a new teaser for the series. "There will be no doubt who the gods have chosen to rule," the makers wrote in the caption accompanying the teaser.
Based on the George RR Martin book Fire & Blood, the series is set roughly 200 years before the events of Game of Thrones, following the story of the Targaryen civil war, known in Westeros history as the "Dance of the Dragons."
Featuring in the cast are Matt Smith, Emma D'Arcy, Olivia Cooke, Steve Toussaint, Rhys Ifans, Fabien Frankel, Ewan Mitchell, and Tom Glynn-Carney, among others.
The series is co-created by Ryan Condal and George RR Martin, who also serve as executive producers. Condal additionally serves as showrunner.
Notably, the House of the Dragon is described as one of the projects in the Game of Thrones universe at HBO and Warner Bros. The studio is also planning for Season 2 of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms - another Game of Thrones prequel, which debuted its first season earlier this year.
