<p>Casey Bloys also revealed that <em>Euphoria</em> season 3, <em>The White Lotus</em> season 3, and HBO’s prequel series to Stephen King’s novel<em> It, Welcome to Derry</em> – have all been pushed to 2025.</p>

House of the Dragon, Euphoria, White Lotus: HBO teases release dates of upcoming shows

<p>There is more from the world of <em>Game Of Thrones.</em> On Wednesday, HBO Max announced that it has greenlit the prequel of GoT based on the author's <em>Dunk and Egg </em>books. The show will be following the adventures of Ser Duncan the Tall (Dunk) and a young Aegon V Targaryen (Egg) 90 years prior to the events of A Song of Ice and Fire which inspired the hit web series <em>Game Of Thrones.</em>&nbsp;</p>

<p>The announcement was made during an event that had&nbsp;Warner Bros, Discovery, the press, and&nbsp;the Investors in attendance,&nbsp;&nbsp;where it was also revealed that HBO Max and Discovery+ streaming service will combine and simply be called Max.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The series is currently titled <em>A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms: The Hedge Knight. </em>The official logline states, “A century before the events of Game of Thrones, two unlikely heroes wandered Westeros… a young, naïve but courageous knight, Ser Duncan the Tall, and his diminutive squire, Egg. Set in an age when the Targaryen line still holds the Iron Throne and the memory of the last dragon has not yet passed from living memory, great destinies, powerful foes, and dangerous exploits all await these improbable and incomparable friends.”</p>

<p>Martin will serve as writer and executive producer, as well as Ira Parker, who was a co-executive producer on Season 1 of <em>House of the Dragon.&nbsp;Game of Thrones</em>&nbsp;and <em>House of the Dragon&nbsp;</em>veterans Ryan Condal and Vince Gerardis will serve as executive producers.</p>

Game Of Thrones prequel titled Seven Kingdoms: The Hedge Knight greenlit by HBO

<p>It's been three years since HBO's juggernaut show 'Game of Thrones' came to a close.&nbsp;Now, the history of the throne is being examined in the prequel 'House of the Dragon,' which charters how the House of Targaryen falls into civil war. The series debuts on HBO on Aug. 21. &nbsp;The show starts with King Viserys Targaryen (Paddy Considine) having to choose an heir, either his dutiful daughter, Princess Rhaenyra, or his wayward and violent brother, Prince Daemon.<br />
<br />
"There's so much that Daemon gets away with because his brother is the king," Considine said in an interview with Reuters.<br />
<br />
"It's not until he breaks my heart with his words that I do act," Considine added. The show is based on passages of George RR Martin's 2018 novel 'Fire &amp; Blood,' which gave a brief history of the Targaryen family 200 years before 'Game of Thrones.' &nbsp; &nbsp;<br />
<br />
The crux of the show lies with the relationship between two women, Alicent Hightower and Princess Rhaenyra. &nbsp; &nbsp; The two are close until Rhaenyra`s mother dies and Alicent marries King Viserys and becomes the queen, demanding that her children become the heirs to the throne.<br />
<br />
"You're going there from the (point of view) of two women for the first time," said Emma D'Arcy, who plays the older Princess Rhaenyra in the generation-spanning story. "It's a show that interrogates patriarchy, misogyny and power."<br />
Some fans complained about the finale of the original 'Game of Thrones' series. 'House of the Dragon' co-creator Ryan Condal said the ending of the new series is already planned.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
"We do have a plan out in front of us, but the main idea is to tell as much story as the book gives us and instead of overstaying your welcome, to get out and leave them wanting a little bit more," Condal said.</p>

The Iron Throne up for grabs again in 'Game of Thrones' prequel series

<p>‘Game of Thrones’ prequel series ‘House of the Dragon’ is all set to treat its fans with more battles, violence, and deceit.&nbsp;The fantasy drama series, which chronicles the Targaryen family's history, will premiere on August 21, and one of its stars, Matt Smith, in an interview with Rolling Stone, hinted that the spinoff would be filled with plenty of passionate sex scenes like its predecessor. In the conversation, Smith recalls how he was taken by surprise by the count of sex scenes that were included in the series.</p>

HBO releases first trailer for 'Game of Thrones' prequel, 'House of the Dragon'

<p>While fans are waiting with bated breath for the 'Game of Thrones'&nbsp;prequel `House of the Dragon`, they can`t help but wonder what the show has in store for them. And HBO content chief Casey Bloys might have an answer!<br />
<br />
As per Variety, Bloys recently spoke about the upcoming series and other 'GOT'&nbsp;spinoffs in the works. Bloys told Variety that he has been surprised by the number of people who believe that there are multiple 'GOT'-related series in active production. For the record, `House of the Dragon`, a prequel that takes place 300 years before the events depicted in 'GOT', is the only spinoff that is real so far.<br />
<br />
'GOT'&nbsp;author George R.R. Martin is helping to oversee development on at least six other projects, including an animated series. Speaking about the forthcoming prequel series, Bloys said, "House of the Dragon is the only one shooting. All the other ones are in various stages of development. People may think we have 10 series shooting at the moment. There`s one that will be on the air in 2022. We`ll see how the other scripts come along."`House of the Dragon` is now filming in England, led by showrunner/executive producer Ryan J. Condal and director/executive producer Miguel Sapochnik, a `GOT` alum.<br />
<br />
Bloys did not give out any spoilers but he said he likes what he`s seen of the dailies so far."It looks spectacular. The cast that (Sapochnik) and Ryan have put together looks good," he said. The prequel series is based on Martin`s novel `Fire and Blood`, a companion to the `Song of Ice and Fire` novels that were the basis for `GOT`.The prequel will follow the Dance of the Dragons, the Targaryen civil war between siblings Aegon II and Rhaenyra, who fought for the throne after the death of their father Viserys I. The Dance of the Dragons pits Westeros` great houses -- including the Lannisters and Starks -- against each other and resulted in the death of House Targaryen`s most powerful dragons. Soon after the war, they would go extinct until Daenerys Targaryen would give birth to three dragons three centuries later.<br />
<br />
'GOT'&nbsp;ran for eight seasons from 2011 to 2019 and was created by showrunners and executive producers David Benioff and D.B. Weiss. The pair were famously protective of the franchise. But they have now handed the keys to the kingdom to the `Dragon` team after signing a USD 200 million production pact with an HBO rival.<br />
<br />
Benioff and Weiss "have been entirely hands off" on Dragon. "They're off working at Netflix," Bloys said. 'House of the Dragon' stars Olivia Cooke as Alicent Hightower, Emma D`Arcy as Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen, Paddy Considine as King Viserys Targaryen, Matt Smith as Prince Daemon Targaryen, Steve Toussaint as Lord Corlys Velaryon aka the Sea Snake, Eve Best as Princess Rhaenys Velaryon, Rhys Ifans as Otto Hightower, Sonoya Mizuno as Mysaria, and Fabien Frankel as Ser Criston Cole.<br />

The upcoming series 'House of the Dragon'&nbsp;will premiere in 2022.</p>

HBO chief says 'GOT' prequel 'House of the Dragon' is looking spectacular

<p>Wait just got shorter for <strong>HBO’s Game of Thrones prequel, </strong>‘House of the Dragon’.&nbsp;</p>

<p>According to latest confirmation from the network, the <strong>‘GoT’ prequel </strong>will start filming from April, 2021. The confirmation was made during the Television Critics' Association panel.</p>

<p>‘House of the Dragon’ is co-created by George R.R. Martin and Ryan Condal, who will act as co-showrunner alongside Miguel Sapochnik. Sapochnik directed some of the most memorable GOT episodes, including ‘The Bells,’ ‘The Long Night’ and ‘Battle of the Bastards’.</p>

<p>According to Deadline, HBO and HBO Max CCO Casey Bloys said, "We're thrilled with Miguel and Ryan, their collaboration and their collaboration with us, and excited to get going.”</p>

<p>The 10-episode series, ‘House of the Dragon’ will star British actor Paddy Considine as King Viserys Targaryen. It will tell the story of the Targaryen civil war that took place about 300 years before the events portrayed in GOT.</p>

<p>"Viserys was chosen by the lords of Westeros to succeed the Old King, Jaehaerys Targaryen, at the Great Council at Harrenhal," the official character description for King Viserys reads. "A warm, kind, and decent man, Viserys only wishes to carry forward his grandfather's legacy, but as we've learned from Game of Thrones, good men do not necessarily make for great kings."</p>

<p>Last December, HBO released concept art for the new dragons featured in the series. The renderings depict one dragon's face up from up close, with dark red scales and saliva dripping from its teeth. The other photo depicts an orange dragon with spikes on its tail, wings and head.</p>

<p>HBO Max CCO Bloys added that the network is "talking about areas to develop, which is where this prequel came from," Deadline reported, but didn't offer much detail on potential other prequels.</p>

<p>"We are talking about other areas that make sense as well," he said. "George R.R. Martin's world is so big and what's interesting about it, not only is it big but he's got a lot of road maps in terms of history. So one of the great things about House of the Dragon is that's an established history that leads you to Game of Thrones the show, and there is a lot of little branches. There is a lot of opportunities and stories to tell."</p>
