For now, viewers are eager to learn about the release date, cast, and plot details of House of the Dragon Season 3.
Without further ado, here’s everything fans need to know about the upcoming season of the Game of Thrones spin-off.
When is House of the Dragon Season 3’s release date expected?
There is no official release date for House of the Dragon Season 3 yet. However, it is expected to arrive sometime in 2026.
The gap between Seasons 1 and 2 was extended because of the SAG-AFTRA protests in the industry. However, this time, Season 3 will not take as long to arrive, as many believe that it will arrive by the summer of 2026.
Even if there are any delays, the third installment will most likely arrive sometime later in the year, as production has already started on House of the Dragon Season 3.
Who could be in House of the Dragon Season 3’s cast?
House of the Dragon Season 3 will continue the story directly from the end of the previous season. Hence, all the primary characters will return to their respective roles.
This includes Olivia Cooke and Emma D’Arcy as Alicent Hightower and Rhaenyra Targaryen, respectively. Other prominent cast members include Fabien Frankel, Rhys Ifans, Ewan Mitchell, Tom Glynn-Carney, Steve Toussaint, Bethany Antonia, and Matt Smith, among many others.
Additionally, James Norton, Matthew Needham, Sonoya Mizuno, Phia Saban, Harry Collett, Abubakar Salim, Clinton Liberty, Phoebe Campbell, Kieran Bew, Jefferson Hall, Gayle Rankin, Freddie Fox, Tom Bennett, Simon Russell Beale, Tommy Flanagan, and Dan Fogler are expected to appear.
What could be House of the Dragon Season 3’s story?
The third season of House of the Dragon will kickstart the big battle in Westeros that was teased throughout the second season. The second season kicked off the Dance of the Dragons, but did not show its full scope. However, the third season will most likely show the full extent of the conflict’s brutality and further reveal how the dragons went extinct in Westeros.
Moreover, the third season will feature four major events. This includes several big battles that will define the fate of the entire dynasty. It will also perhaps be extremely political, like the previous two seasons.
More details about House of the Dragon Season 3 are expected to arrive soon.
