House of the Dragon Episode 9 Promo: The Green Council Makes Their Move

Following another powerful episode premiere, HBO has released the promo trailer for the upcoming ninth episode of House of the Dragon, titled “The Green Council.” The newest episode of the Game of Thrones prequel is scheduled to air on October 16.

The House of the Dragon Episode 9 trailer teases the events following Viserys’ death as The Green Council led by Alicent, Otto, and Ser Criston quietly start their plans of proclaiming Aegon the king. This includes not informing Rhaenyra about the death of her father and seeking the allegiance of the people in King’s Landing.

Based on George R.R. Martin’s Fire & Blood, House of the Dragon chronicles the rise and the downfall of the Targaryens, who are the only family of dragonlords to survive the Doom of Valyria. It takes place 300 years before the events of the award-winning series adaptation of Game of Thrones, which aired its final episode in 2019.

The 10-episode series is being led by Paddy Considine, Matt Smith, Olivia Cooke, and Emma D’Arcy as Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen. It also features Rhys Ifans, Steve Toussaint, Eve Best, Sonoya Mizuno, Milly Alcock, Emily Carey, Graham McTavish, Ryan Corr, Jefferson Hall, David Horovitch, Matthew Needham, Bill Patterson, Gavin Spokes, Wil Johnson, John Macmillan, Savannah Steyn, and Theo Nate.

House of the Dragon hails from George R.R. Martin, Ryan Condal, and Game of Thrones director Miguel Sapochnik, with Condal and Sapochnik also serving as showrunners. Executive producers are Martin, Sapochnik, Condal, Vince Gerardis, and Sara Lee Hess.
