According to the sources, the shooting was wrapped up in 2023 itself and was expected to be released in early 2024. But because of the unexpected post-production delays, it got pushed. Hence, a Summer 2024 release.

For the second season, a whole bunch of new faces have been locked to play significant parts. Some notable names like Abubaker Salim and Freddie Fox are also joining the cast amongst others.

The story of the next season will consist of more action and more dragons as well. The first season ends on a cold note as Rhaenyra’s son, Lucerys, is dead now. And the war between the Blacks and the Greens is at its peak. Vhagar flying by in the teaser was definitely a stand-out.
