The 10-part series is set 200 years before the events of Thrones, and centres on the rise and fall of House Targaryen.

It’s based on chapters from author George R.R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire companion book, Fire & Blood, during a civil war dubbed ‘Dance of the Dragons’.

This particular era in Westeros history is when the Targaryen family – Daenerys’ ancestors – reigns supreme, with 17 dragons at their disposal.

King Viserys Tagaryen (Paddy Considine) serves as peaceful ruler of the Seven Kingdoms, but tensions flare over his successor, with his daughter Rhaenyra (D’Arcy) and his brother Daemon (Smith) both eager to be heir.

House of the Dragon premieres express from the US on Binge and Foxtel August 22
