Demonstrating the formidable strength of HBO’s "Game of Thrones" empire, the network has renewed "House of the Dragon" for Season 3, in advance of its Season 2 premiere on June 16.
The "Game of Thrones" spinoff series has proven to be a fire-breathing hit for the network. The show enjoyed the biggest premiere audience ever for an original series for both HBO and HBO Max (now Max), and the first season averaged 29 million viewers an episode over linear and streaming.
It was renewed for Season 2 just one week following its series premiere.
“George, Ryan, and the rest of our incredible executive producers, cast, and crew, have reached new heights with the phenomenal second season,” said HBO’s programming and drama series chief Francesca Orsi in a statement.
“We are in awe of the dragon-sized effort the entire team has put into the creation of a spectacular season two, with a scope and scale that is only rivaled by its heart. We could not be more thrilled to continue the story of House Targaryen and watch this team burn bright again for season three.”
