‘House of the Dragon’ season 2 co-creator Ryan Condal and star Olivia Cooke gave insight to what fans can expect from the Max series.
If Game of Thrones was gory, s*xually explicit, and filled with n*dity and booze then wait for the House of the Dragon Season 2, as Olivia Cooke said, it has crossed the line of its sequel show. House of the Dragon Season 2 has been one of the highly anticipated television shows after the success of season 1, which gave chills to the bones to the devout fans of the saga.

With the House of the Dragon’s second season scheduled, Cooke, who plays Alicent Hightower in the show, gave fans some hint of what the second season entails.
Olivia Cooke Gave Insight To House of the Dragon Season 2
Buckle up if you have placed House of the Dragon Season 2 on your summer watchlist. The series is going to be much more than what you have seen before.
Olivia Cooke, one of the prominent cast members of the show, gave fans a huge hint about the nature of the show, reflecting on the direction where it is headed. In an exclusive chat with Entertainment Weekly, the actor revealed that the second season of the show is more heinous than Game of Thrones.
God! I’d just say, it is Game of Thrones, expect the worst. Expect the very worst possible, and then double it. I dunno what else to say without heavily spoiling it, but it is heinous.
Based on George R.R. Martin‘s Fire & Blood, which tells the tale of House Targaryen, is set 200 years before the events of Game of Thrones. Cooke’s insight on the highly anticipated series has certainly elevated the hype for fans.

Not just Cooke, but series co-creator, Ryan Condal also gave valuable insights into the show asking fans to expect the horrible— in a gory, intense politics and violent point of view of course— which will be complemented with grave drama. Condal joined Cooke in the EW interview as he added to Cooke’s comment on the gravity of the narrative.
A Song of Ice and Fire and Game of Thrones have really conditioned people to expect the unexpected and expect the horrible. But, yeah, that one’s pretty horrific. We’ll see what people make of what’s to come.
The showrunner went on to add:
Season 2 is the march to war. It’s really a cold war because each side is trying to undeniably win the throne for themselves without going to all-out dragon war. We do that through plotting and backstabbing and assassination and spy games and all the things that you would see in a classic James Bond Cold War thriller.
House of the Dragon season 2 will see the return of Emma D’Arcy, Matt Smith, Rhys Ifans, Eve Best, Steve Toussaint, Fabien Frankel, Sonoya Mizuno, Graham McTavish, and Matthew Needham.
House of the Dragon season 2 premieres on Sunday, June 16 on Max.
