It may be a while before Westeros returns to TV screens, but at least the wheels are turning. In a press release today, HBO announced that House of the Dragon season 2 has commenced production. To show that the sets are live again, the network released a new behind-the-scenes image of the Iron Throne being lit from above.
“We are thrilled to be shooting again with members of our original family as well as new talents on both sides of the camera,” says Ryan Condal, Co-Creator/Showrunner/Executive Producer. “All your favorite characters will soon be conspiring at the council tables, marching with their armies, and riding their dragons into battle. We can’t wait to share what we have in store.”
