The Game of Thrones prequel is set to air in 2020. The show will be set thousands of years before the events of Game of Thrones and will tell the story of the world’s descent into darkness. The prequel will star Naomi Watts as a character who is “descending from the light”.
The show will also feature Josh Whitehouse, Jamie Campbell Bower, and Sheila Atim.
When Does Game of Thrones Prequel?
It’s been a long wait for the final season of Game of Thrones, and now that it’s finally here, fans are wondering about the spin-off series. Here’s everything we know about the prequel so far.
The working title for the show is “Bloodmoon” and it will be set thousands of years before the events of Game of Thrones. The story will focus on the age of House Targaryen and their dragon-riding warriors. This was first hinted at in George R.R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire book series, which the show is based on.
Jane Goldman (X-Men: First Class) is writing the pilot episode and will serve as showrunner if the project is picked up to series. Goldman has said that she wants to make a show that feels like Game of Thrones but with a different flavor. She also teased that there will be some familiar faces in the spin-off, though it’s unclear if she means characters from GoT or other parts of Martin’s universe.
There is no official word yet on when production will begin or when the show might air, but given how long it took for Game of Thrones to get off the ground, don’t expect to see Bloodmoon anytime soon. In the meantime, fans can continue speculating about what this new series might entail!
House of the Dragon Release Date
HBO’s upcoming Game of Thrones spinoff, House of the Dragon, is set to premiere in 2022. The series will be based on George R.R. Martin’s Fire & Blood and follow the history of House Targaryen. Here’s everything we know about the highly anticipated show so far.
HBO announced in October 2019 that they were developing a Game of Thrones spinoff series based on George R.R. Martin’s book Fire & Blood. The series will be called House of the Dragon and will take place 300 years before the events of Game of Thrones.
House of the Dragon will focus on the Targaryen dynasty and will tell the story of “the dance between dragons and men.”
The series will be written by Ryan Condal (Colony) and directed by Miguel Sapochnik (Game of Thrones). It was also revealed that Condal would serve as showrunner alongside executive producer Martin.
The cast for House of the Dragon includes Paddy Considine as Viserys Targaryen, Matt Smith as Prince Daemon Targaryen, Olivia Cooke as Alicent Hightower, Rhys Ifans as Otto Hightower, Eve Best as Princess Rhaenys Velaryon, Steve Toussaint as Lord Corlys Velaryon, Rhys Wakefield as Massey, Sonoya Mizunoas Mysaria/Silkie, Evan Peters as Aegon II Targaryen, Danny Sapaniasmarah Estragon/Marwyn Belmoreand Alex Sharpas Tycho Nestoris.
Filming for House of the Dragon began in April 2021 in Cornwall, England at Dragonswood—a forest near Stourhead National Trust property which served as one filming location for season eight of Game Of Thrones—and is expected to continue through September 2021.
While an official release date has not been announced yet, it was previously reported that HBO was targeting a 2022 premiere date for House of the Dragon. However, with production only just now getting underway, it’s possible that timeline could shift slightly.
In any case, fans can expect to see House Of The Dragons sometime within the next two years or so!

Is There a Release Date for House of the Dragon?
No, there is no release date for House of the Dragon as of yet. The series is still in early development and has not begun production.
Is House of Dragon Cancelled?
No, House of Dragon is not cancelled. The show is still in production and is expected to air on HBO in 2022.
What Time Will House of Dragons Be Released?
As of now, there is no set release date for House of Dragons. George R.R. Martin, the author of the A Song of Ice and Fire series (upon which the Game of Thrones television show is based), has said that he is still working on the book. The most recent update from him was in January 2019, when he said that he was about halfway done with the manuscript.
However, given that the last two books in the series (A Feast for Crows and A Dance with Dragons) took six and seven years to write respectively, it’s safe to say that fans shouldn’t expect House of Dragons anytime soon.
How Long before Game of Thrones is the Prequel?
We don’t know for sure when the Game of Thrones prequel will air, but it’s looking like it could be sometime in 2020. The prequel, which is currently untitled, is set to start filming in early 2019. So far, we know that it will take place during the “Age of Heroes”, which is a period of time before the events of Game of Thrones.
This was a time when Westeros was supposedly more stable and there were fewer wars. It’s also a time when there were more magical creatures like direwolves and dragons. We’re excited to see what this new show will bring!
