House of the Dragon season 2has suffered a major leak, with key scenes from the finale making it to the internet days before the finale is supposed to premiere on HBO.
According toVariety, approximately 30 minutes of leaked footage made its way to TikTok on an account which has since been taken down. But those clips have made it to Reddit and Twitter, meaning the internet is rife with spoilers for the season finale. We won’t go into any details here, but it’s safe to say that you should tread carefully until the episode airs if you want to avoid the spoilers.
TheHouse of the Dragon season 1 finalealsoleaked ahead of its airing, andGame of Thronessuffered multiple leaks across its run. Season 8 was especially affected by leaks.
House of the Dragon season 2, episode 7set the board for one dramatic finale, with Daemon finally raising an army at Harrenhal, Rhaenyra bringing thedragonseedsplot to fruition, and Aemond turning back from Dragonstone when he saw the newly claimed dragons (includingVermithor).
The show has already been renewed for season 3, too, so we hopefully won’t have too long to wait to see what happens next.
“Hopefully you start with a bang, and then you build to another bang through the series, but you’re really trying to arc out the characters, so that each season is a different experience for all of them,“showrunner Ryan Condal recently told us of an at the time hypothetical season 3. “And then you leave them off all in a place where you can pick up with them next year, and then take them in a new direction, because you don’t want to end up in that place where you’re doing the same thing again and again.”
The House of the Dragon season 2 finale airs on HBO in the US and Sky and NOW in the UK. For more on the show, check out our deep dives on:
