House of the Dragon (TV Series)

10 Episodes. The story is set 172 years "before Daenerys Targaryen", and in the ninth year of the reign of Viserys Targaryen (Paddy Considine), a king whose line of succession is in peril. His wife Aemma (Sian Brooke) is pregnant, although there is no guarantee that she will give birth to a male heir. If she doesn't, then the Iron Throne will fall to Viserys's brother, Daemon, a wild and potentially tyrannical ruler (Matt Smith); or – in a break with tradition – Viserys's teenage daughter Rhaenyra (Milly Alcock), whose claim is destined to be resisted
