Despite Game of Thrones' eighth and final season souring just about everybody on the entire enterprise, there's clearly still a tremendous thirst for more of George R. R. Martin's world to be explored on-screen.

House of the Dragon will be based on Martin's 2018 novel Fire & Blood, which is set 200 years before the events of Game of Thrones and depicts both the creation of House Targaryen and the ensuing Targaryen civil war.

The 10-episode series has been created by Martin and Ryan Condal (Colony), and will star Paddy Considine, Olivia Cooke, Matt Smith, Rhys Ifans, and many more.

From the few glimpses we've seen so far it certainly seems set to live up to Thrones' glossy, epic standard, and as such could help everyone fall back in love with the IP.

House of the Dragon will premiere on HBO sometime in 2022.
