Season 2 of House of the Dragon left many unresolved questions to explore when season 3 inevitably arrives. There are still a lot of unanswered questions about where House of the Dragon will go next. But the show may already be halfway through. In a new interview, series co-creator Ryan Condal said House of the Dragon will end after four seasons.
The Hollywood Reporter asked Condal if the show would run for five seasons as previously mentioned. In response, Condal said: “I think it’s four [seasons]” He also explained why the Season 2 finale didn’t show the esophageal battle.
“When you’re a showrunner, you’re always in a position where you have to balance storytelling with the resources you have available to tell the story,” Condal noted. “When you try to stage this show, it requires a lot of resources, buildings, armor, costumes, visual effects… We are trying to give Esophagus – which is arguably the second most anticipated of Fire & Blood action event – try to give it the time and space it deserves.
He went on to “apologize for the wait,” before adding “We’re going to have a huge victory in Gut Wars.”
According to Condal, the third season of “House of the Dragon” will begin filming next year and will likely have eight episodes.
