Game of Thrones prequel House of The Dragon is a massive storm brewing, with the Targaryens smack in the middle of it. The storyline is going through a period of turmoil, the storm has already begun.

House of The Dragon has been officially renewed for season 2, and so has the series’ now sole showrunner Ryan Condal’s contract.
HBO has officially extended Ryan Condal’s overall deal, with the first one for Season 1 signed in 2020. Condal is now the sole showrunner for Season 2. As reported by Deadline, Francesca Orsi, EVP, HBO Programming, Head of HBO Drama Series and Films, stated, “Ryan Condal is a singular talent. He has a magnificent ability to tell stories, build worlds, and shape character, as well as deep passion and respect for George R.R. Martin’s universe.”

House of the Dragon’s Ryan Condal addresses Miguel Sapochnik’s decision of stepping down as the director
“The years we’ve spent collaborating with him on House of the Dragon have affirmed our desire to expand our partnership with him now and in years to come.”
Condal responded, “When I picked up that paperback copy of ‘A Game of Thrones’ over two decades ago, I wasn’t even sure I would make it as a screenwriter. To find myself here, having co-created a series set in Westeros, is almost beyond thought. I am incredibly fortunate. I’m grateful to George R.R. Martin for believing in me and to HBO for placing their trust in me. I’m thrilled to be partnering with HBO to tell the next chapter in the Targaryen saga, and I’m hoping that it’s just one of many to come.”
