House of the Dragon Season 2 filming unimpacted by writers' strike

overall production

and possibly delay the second season's premiere.

Considering the crucial role writers play in any production, it's understandable why the WGA has called for a strike to draw attention to the demands of its members. Despite facing criticism for the underwhelming final season of Game of Thrones, David Benioff and D.B. Weiss have gained worldwide recognition for their exceptional work in writing all eight seasons of the highly acclaimed HBO series.

Season one of House of the Dragon ended with Aemond's dragon, Vhagar, killing Lucerys and his dragon, Arrax. Audiences will be eager to see how the usurped Princess Rhaenyra will react to the death of her second child in the ongoing civil war between the Hightowers and Targaryens.

HBO and its

revamped streaming service

, Max, are slated to air Season 2 of House of the Dragon in the

summer of 2024

. In contrast to the first season's 10 episodes, the upcoming season will have a total of 8 episodes.
