House of the Dragon release schedule: When is episode 10 released?
House Targaryen is back on our screens with a vengeance.
House of the Dragon episode 10 is almost upon us, and you can bet that House Targaryen will once again be fussing over who should sit next on the Iron Throne before the season ends.
The first season of the Game of Thrones prequel series has almost concluded, but thankfully, House of the Dragon season 2 has already been confirmed.
The big story of the last episode centred on the aftermath of the death of King Viserys I Targaryen (Paddy Considine).
Queen Alicent Hightower (Olivia Cooke) and her allies moved quickly to ensure that her son Prince Aegon Targaryen (Tom Glynn-Carney) assumed the Iron Throne.
However, the coronation suffered a catastrophic interruption thanks to the Queen Who Never Was, Princess Rhaenys Targaryen (Eve Best).

What will happen in House of the Dragon episode 10?
In the trailer for House of the Dragon episode 10, The Black Queen, we open with Princess Rhaenys Targaryen (Eve Best) flying her dragon Meleys to Dragonstone after escaping King's Landing and the coronation of King Aegon II Targaryen (Tom Glynn-Carney).
"The Greens are coming for you, Rhaenyra," warns Rhaenys, "and for you children."
Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen (Emma D'Arcy) looks horrified as she listens beside her husband, Prince Daemon Targaryen (Matt Smith).
We then see Daemon grab his sword Dark Sister and tell his wife: "You cannot bend the knee to the Hightowers. They stole your birthright."
A gathering of Rhaenyra's supporters is then shown standing in the Map Room of Dragonstone with Rhaenys' voice noting: "Every man standing around the Painted Table urges her to plunge the realm into war."
One lord tells Rhaenyra: "Lay siege to the Red Keep."
Then, Rhaenyra's son and heir Prince Jacaerys Velaryon (Harry Collett) tells his mother: "Send us."
Jacaerys and his younger brother Prince Lucerys Velaryon (Elliot Grihault) are then shown running towards their dragons, while a shot of Prince Aemond Targaryen's (Ewan Mitchell) dragon Vhagar is shown.
A shot is then shown of Ser Erryk Cargyll (Elliott Tittensor) holding out the crown of the late King Viserys and stating: "I swear toward the Queen."
A voice then tells Rhaenyra: "Your cause holds a power that has not been seen since the days of Old Valyria."
The trailer ends with Prince Daemon singing in High Valyrian in the bowels of Dragonstone to the dragon Vermithor, who breathes fire.
Shots then show Prince Daemon drawing his sword on the causeway of Dragonstone towards his old rival, Ser Otto Hightower (Rhys Ifans).
