Based on the George RR Martin book 'Fire & Blood', the series is set roughly 200 years before the events of 'Game of Thrones', following the story of the Targaryen civil war, known in Westeros history as the "Dance of the Dragons."
Featuring in the cast are Matt Smith, Emma D'Arcy, Olivia Cooke, Steve Toussaint, Rhys Ifans, Fabien Frankel, Ewan Mitchell, and Tom Glynn-Carney, among others.
The series is co-created by Ryan Condal and George RR Martin, who also serve as executive producers. Condal additionally serves as showrunner.
