HBO has given a second season order for 바카라˜House Of The Dragon바카라™, the prequel series to the popular fantasy drama 바카라˜Game of Thrones바카라™.
The show's early renewal follows its smash-hit debut with the first episode, which dropped on August 21, and drew the largest audience for any new original series in HBO history, the American premium network said in a statement on Friday.
"The first episode has now been seen by over 20 million viewers across linear, on demand and HBO Max platforms in the US, based on a combination of Nielsen data and first party data," the company said.
바카라˜House Of The Dragon바카라™ is based on George RR Martin's book 바카라˜Fire & Blood바카라™, a history of House Targaryen set 200 years before the events described in 바카라˜Game Of Thrones바카라™, which ended its eight-season run in 2019.
Francesca Orsi, Executive Vice President, HBO Programming, said the network is beyond proud of the show's first season.
"Our phenomenal cast and crew undertook a massive challenge and exceeded all expectations, delivering a show that has already established itself as must-see-TV. A huge thank you to George, Ryan, and Miguel for leading us on this journey. We couldn바카라™t be more excited to continue bringing to life the epic saga of House Targaryen with season two," she added.
바카라˜House Of The Dragon바카라™ features an ensemble cast of Paddy Considine, Matt Smith, Olivia Cooke, Emma D바카라™Arcy, Steve Toussaint, Eve Best, Fabien Frankel, Sonoya Mizuno, and Rhys Ifans.
Ryan Condal is attached as the showrunner and executive producer on the show along with Miguel Sapochnik, who helmed "Game of Thrones" episodes such as 'The Battle of Bastards' and 'The Winds of Winter'.
Condal and Martin are credited as co-creators and executive producers.
