The newest trailer for House of the Dragon season two has dropped, showing more of the ongoing conflict between Team Black and Team Green at the centre of the season.
With the show releasing next month, hype is growing amongst fans for the Game of Thrones spin-off show’s second season – in which the main characters are going into a full on war against one another.
Check out the trailer here:

House of the Dragon season one ended with the death of Viserys I Targaryen, played brilliantly by Paddy Considine.
And his death has led to an all out fight over who would become the new king (or queen) of Westeros.
On one side, Team Black, is Rhaenyra Targaryen (played by Emma D'Arcy), the daughter of the late king, while her half-brother Aegon Targaryen (Tom Glynn-Carney) leads Team Green alongside his mother, Alicent Hightower (Olivia Cooke).
If you've got confused by all the wild names don't worry - the show will make very clear where the battle lines are drawn - though the trailer already shows signs of discord amongst the teams.
In a particularly tense moment of the trailer - Matt Smith's Daemon Targaryen appears to be at odds with Rhaenyra - his niece and also wife (yes you read that correctly).
And fans of the show are beyond hyped - with one posting a reply on X to say: "HBO always cook when it comes to TV Series, just well written, high quality TV. We will be there."
Another said: "THE KING OF TV IS BACK BABY! BEST SHOW!"
While fans on subreddit r/HouseOfTheDragon were similarly hyped.
One user commented: "HOLY F*CK that was spectacular! Those last seconds... damn! Incredible cinematography and tension! Can't f*ckin wait!"
Another wrote: "The trailer is great, that's looks epic! I'm so exited to see everything in the 2nd season, especially Rhaenyra and Daemon relationship plotline."
As well as the regular cast, viewers will also be introduced to newcomers Simon Russell Beale as Ser Simon Strong, Clinton Liberty as Addam of Hull, Jamie Kenna as Ser Alfred Broome and Kieran Bew as Hugh.
And also joining them will be Tom Bennett as Ulf, Tom Taylor as Lord Cregan Stark, and Vincent Regan as Ser Rickard Thorne, as well as Freddie Fox, who takes on the role of Ser Gwayne Hightower.
The show releases 16 June with a premiere episode, and will run for eight episodes - taking the show right through the summer.
Whether it be The Boys, The Bear, or House of the Dragon - it's fair to say that this summer is setting itself up to be a legendary one for TV fans.
