House of the Dragon, a 10-episode series, is expected to make its debut in 2022. It is also one project in development that will focus on The Sea Snake, which HBO describes as "the most famed nautical adventurer in the history of Westeros".
The series is based on George RR Martin’s book series, Fire and Blood. Set 300 years before the events of Game of Thrones, House of the Dragon will focus on the story of the House Targaryen.
The script is written by Condal, who also serves as co-showrunner alongside GoT veteran Miguel Sapochnik.
Martin, Condal, and Sapochnik are executive producers alongside writer Sara Lee Hess, Vince Gerardis, and Ron Schmidt. While Greg Yaitanes, Clare Kilner, and Geeta V. Patel are in the directing team, reports Deadline.
