    We were all captivated by the two white-haired survivors of the House Targaryen, Daenerys and her older brother Viserys, as they rampaged with their dragons in the original Game Of Thrones.

    Well, we’re in for a treat with the GOT prequel, House of the Dragon. Set 200 years before the events of the original series, it will chronicle the power struggles of House Targaryen amid a civil war.

    The struggle for power, particularly among the women of the Targaryen family (the last time we saw Danerys, she had ascended the Iron Throne, albeit briefly), is an old one.

    HBO released a teaser in May, which left fans’ hearts positively racing, but now we’ve been given a proper trailer that is nearly three minutes long and full of the carnage, magic, and political infighting that the fantastical series is known for.

    Alright, “gods, kings, fire, and blood”:

    Collider has a brief synopsis:

    The trailer sees Westeros in upheaval over who will take the throne following the death of King Viserys I Targaryen (Paddy Considine). Although custom dictates that the King’s first born ascend to the position, this would leave the ruling of Westeros to Viserys’ daughter Rhaenyra Targaryen (Mily Alcock/Emma D’Arcy), and as one of the councilmen points out “no queen has ever sat the Iron Throne.”

    Despite the protests, Rhaenyra remains determined to seek out what it hers by birth, no matter what a few men have to say.

    The series will star Matt Smith as Prince Daemon Targaryen and Olivia Cooke as Alicent Hightower.

    With GOT author George R.R. Martin’s long-winded Fire & Blood being used as the source material, and Miquel Sapochnik and Ryan Condal at the helm, per HuffPost, House of the Dragon has lofty ambitions of following in the footsteps of the most popular TV series of the last 20 years:

    “I was a fan of these books for 20 years,” Condal told The Hollywood Reporter. “I was a fan of ‘Game of Thrones’ — I watched the pilot the night it aired on HBO and every episode after. You can’t follow ‘Thrones,’ it’s The Beatles.”

    …“I’m setting out as a fan to make the thing I want to see, and I’m happy with what we’ve achieved,” said Condal. “The Targaryens are like the Jedi in ‘Star Wars,’ where you heard about this time when they were plentiful and powerful and always wanted to see that. And now you get to.”

    Watch out for House of the Dragon on HBO from August 21.

    Hell, we’re ready now.
