House of the Dragon: The trailer of the 6th episode hides an important revelation!
Two characters are getting ready for their debut
We’re officially halfway through the first season of House of the Dragon , with the sixth of a total of ten episodes now due on September 25th. So, wanting to prepare the ground, HBO has released a short teaser trailer for the next episode, which actually hides a big reveal.
In particular, the video confirms that Emma D’Arcy and Olivia Cooke will officially make their debut in the series, playing the adult version of two of the main characters, namely Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen and Alicent Hightower. Remarkably, D’Arcy and Cooke were two of the first names we heard to round out the cast when initial preparations were underway for the 2020 show.
After all, the Game of Thrones prequel started with Milly Alcock and Emily Carey playing the two main characters at a younger age. Somehow, then, House of the Dragon will now lead the story towards the events of the Dance of the Dragons, that is, one of the most crucial wars in the history of Westeros, which breaks out within the Targaryen house for the succession.
