The Targaryen family history is about to be explored centuries before Daenerys Targaryen (played by Emilia Clarke) took to the Iron Throne. HBO’s House of the Dragon finally has a full-length trailer to give Game of Thrones fans a first glimpse at the likes of Matt Smith, Paddy Considine and Olivia Cooke ahead of Comic-Con. However, not everyone is willing to give the prequel a shot – despite its action-packed trailer.
Many fans have reacted to the new trailer to express their disdain for the GOT universe given how season eight ended on HBO.
A number of fans were dissatisfied with how Game of Thrones wrapped up storylines for the likes of Jon Snow (Kit Harington), Arya Stark (Maisie Williams) and Daenerys.
However, HBO hopes to win fans back with its first-look which includes the likes of King Viserys Targaryen (Considine), Prince Daemon Targaryen (Smith), Alicent Hightower (Cooke) and Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen (Emma D’Arcy) in Westeros.
Reacting on Twitter, user and GOT fan @jojenite fumed: “Hard to be excited when we all know how it all ends. Should’ve reshoot seasons 7 and 8 without D&D and give us a proper ending.”

Brent Paterman echoed: “I would be excited but you all ruined Season 8.. go away.”
While @playboi___danni argued: “There’s no reason to watch a prequel show if the original ends so disappointingly, regardless of who writes the prequel show.”
And Okla Hannali simply questioned: “Is this gonna be s**t, too?”
However, there was still plenty of support and excitement among the fandom, with @WeThrones tweeting: “#HouseoftheDragon. This show is coming to rule the world again. Kneel or run.”
Joining the aforementioned stars in the cast are a number of big names bound to add to the hype.
Fabiel Frankel, Sonoya Mizuno, Rhys Ifans, Eve Best and Steve Toussaint are just a handful of stars who pop up in the trailer.
The new promo also delivered on all the aspects of Westeros GOT fans have been accustomed to over the years.
There’s plenty of sword-fighting, long blonde locks and, arguably most importantly, dragons.
There’s also some exciting news away from House of the Dragon which is bound to get GOT fans excited.
While the prequel will arrive in August, a spin-off centred on Jon Snow is reportedly also in the pipeline.
Daenerys star Clarke recently confirmed Harington is heavily involved in the project, although little information on the series is publicly available.
House of The Dragon premieres exclusively on Sky and NOW in the UK on Monday, August 22.
