The reign of House Targaryen is set to unravel as Disney+ Hotstar brings you the much-awaited HBO series, HOUSE OF THE DRAGON, starting August 22 in India. The 10-episode series based on George R.R. Martin’s book Fire and Blood is set 200 years before the events of Game of Thrones, tells the story of House Targaryen.

Lots of dragons and swordplay would aptly describe the first official trailer of House of the Dragon. We even get a glimpse of a dragon wearing armor! While the trailer is full of battles, court intrigue, and dragons, it's the talk of succession that takes center stage.
