Season two of ‘House of the Dragon’ is set to premiere soon on JioCinema Premium, following the massive success of the first season.

Set 200 years before the events of Game of Thrones, the series acts as a prequel to the globally acclaimed hit.

Based on George R. R. Martin’s Fire & Blood, the series highlights the great Targaryen War and the Dance of the Dragons, which play a pivotal role in the GOT franchise.

The first season featured the incredible story of Princess Rhaenyra and Queen Alicent, but this season will showcase the bloody battle between 'The Blacks' and 'The Greens.'

Actor Tom Glynn-Carney, who will be resuming the role of King Aegon II, opens up on his character and how he came to understand his role.

Tom Glynn-Carney on his character, King Aegon II, “You should never, as an actor, judge a character because I feel like if you judge them you might dislike them and that’s not good. So you have to learn to love them by whatever means that takes.”

He continues sharing, “Regardless, I don’t dislike Aegon. I think he’s immensely troubled and very complex, for good reasons. I think he has abandonment issues and I think he has a guilt complex. I also think he feels inadequate and invisible, or he has been in the past, to his family.”

JioCinema is now exclusively streaming 'House of the Dragon' Season 2 in India, episodes dropping every Monday morning, concurrently with the US.

This highly anticipated series, set in the captivating world of Westeros, will be available in multiple regional languages, namely English, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Bengali, and Marathi, allowing a diverse audience to fully immerse themselves in the saga.
