House of the Dragon When it premieres on HBO on August 21st, thegame Of Thrones is wrong. According to Insider's Kim Renfro,his three of these orders came directly from Westeros' own all-wizard, George R. R. Martin. Insider recently attended a press event forHouse of the Dragon where co-showrunners Ryan Condal and Miguel Sapochnik shared with Martin his three specific requests for the new show. I made it clear that I was out. Added King Jaehaerys Targaryen II.
HBO'sHouse of the Dragonis set nearly 200 years before the events ofGame of Thrones. It's a peaceful and glorious time for the Targaryen dynasty. Dragons fly in the skies, and the royal family's biggest problem is having too many heirs. For this reason, all lords of Westeros are asked to vote for the next heir to Jeheris I (Michael Carter) in the 101 Grand Council. ), the majority of Westerosi lords choose their cousin Viserys (Paddy Considine). About ten years later, things get more complicated when Viserys decides to name his own daughter Rhaenyra (Milly Alcott) as his successor.
Because House of the Dragons is set in an age when dragons abounded. The coffers were overflowing, and Jaehaerys' long and successful reign was coming to an end.
Daenerys' dragons had distinctive colors when they first hatched, but Drogon was black, Rhaegal was green, and Viserion was cream, but as they grew their scales and appearance became jumbled. The House of the Dragons tries to fix this, giving each dragon its own unique appearance (the first House of the Dragons teased at toy drop).
Martin wanted the show to interfere with the coat of arms for similar reasons. "This is a period of decadence and peace, wealth and prosperity in this realm," Condal said. "Everyone was proud to march to the tournament, wearing garlands in their home colors." So expect some killer tournament looks in the series. 44} Perhaps most importantly, Martin wanted Jaehaerys to be included in the House of the Dragon. Certainly, the Old King's cameo appearance suggests that Westeros is wrapping up a long era of peace, but Game of Thrones showrunner David Benioff and his D.B. created when establishing a version of Targaryen history. So Benioff and Weiss just…cut Jeharies and his wife Alysanne out of the line of succession altogether.
"David and Dan, he skipped over Jaehaerys for clarity, but he really didn't get it," Sapochnik said, referring to Martin. "He had a bee in the hood about it. He wanted us to correct the mistake." We've already seen pictures of the actor playing his Jaehaerys in the 101 Grand Council reenactment. maximum.
