House of the Dragon – st. 3 ep. 1 Salt and Sea, Fire and Blood

Buoyed by her trust in Alicent, Rhaenyra prepares to seize King’s Landing, while the Triarchy sets sail through the Gullet to capture Corlys.

The new season of the series, based on George R.R. Martin’s Fire & Blood, opens with a spectacular episode: a battle unlike anything ever seen on television, unfolding simultaneously across sea and sky in a breathtaking display of dragons and warships. Packed with twists and turns, it serves as the tragic and brutal climax of the conflict between the two queens that has driven the series so far. Screened outdoors under the magic of the night, with the sea as its backdrop, the episode finds its perfect setting.
