'House of the Dragon' is set to make a triumphant return on June 22, 2026, bringing viewers back into the heart of the Targaryen civil war.
Season 3 promises to deepen the conflict between Queen Rhaenyra Targaryen, representing Team Black, and her half-brother, King Aegon Targaryen, of Team Green.
A Divided Realm
The ongoing struggle centers on competing claims to the Iron Throne, following the death of their father, King Viserys. Rhaenyra, the firstborn, was named his heir, while Aegon seeks to assert his position as the male heir.
Both factions are gathering allies to prepare for the inevitable clash, which is expected to lead to devastating consequences.
