‘House of the Dragon’ Boss Calls Season 3’s Battle of the Gullet ‘Craziest Episode of TV Ever Made’
The premiere stages a sea-and-sky clash between the Triarchy and Lord Corlys Velaryon’s fleet, with dragonriders joining the fight.
- House of the Dragon Season 3 arrives on HBO on June 21, opening immediately with the long-anticipated Battle of the Gullet from the Dance of the Dragons conflict.
- The conflict has been building for two seasons, with actress Emma DArcy noting the series now starts at 60 miles an hour as Aemond Targaryen sits on the Iron Throne and Rhaenyra commands new dragons.
- Showrunner Ryan Condal called the premiere arguably the craziest episode of television ever made, requiring four years to realize despite the show's enormous budget and logistical challenges he initially doubted were possible.
- Unlike Game of Thrones' land-based battles, the Gullet unfolds at sea with Admiral Sharako Lohar's Triarchy fleet facing Lord Corlys Velaryon's navy, while dragonriders including Rhaenyra's son Jace join the multi-theater conflict.
- Actor Abubakar Salim, who plays Alyn of Hull, told Entertainment Weekly he felt like he was on a theme park ride while filming, describing the euphoria of living childhood dreams of sailing with a sword.
