The prequel starring Naomi Watts had begun the shoot and shot the pilot but was sacked as the HBO network (the production behind GOT) didn’t like it. House of Dragon would now be the prequel to the series.
The new prequel would be set three centuries before the GOT time period and would be focused on House Targaryen and Daenerys’ ancestors. House of Dragon would be based on a book by George R.R. Martin titled Fire & Blood.
