HBO decided to renew the show after airing just one episode showing that the company has a lot of faith in the series’s success.
“Typically speaking, I like to take an approach where we will talk about what a second season might look like and talk about scripts. But we tend to like to see how a show performs,” said HBO’s content chief, Casey Bloys in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter.
“That said, if I were betting, I’d say there’s a pretty good shot that House of the Dragon will get a season two. But we tend to like things to air and give it some time. That said, on most shows, we’ll do the preparation and put ourselves in a good position to move forward,” he further added.
